Robert Coulter's arrangement of Eight Duets for Euphonium and Tuba or Two Tubas by Handel is a great way to get together to play or even record yourself and play back over the track. The music can be performed by Euphonium (mostly middle register) and Tuba or with two tubas with an F Tuba on the top part.

These Eight Duets are perfect for a recital, the teaching studio, or just for fun, appropriate for intermediate to moderately advanced performers, and total about 15 minutes of great music.

Counterpoint is a collection of banjo duets, where Miles has taken traditional melodies and created a second banjo part in counterpoint harmony. Counterpoint harmony (vs parallel harmony) has a rhythm and melody of its own, distinct from the main melody. The result is an exquisite sound that enriches these ancient melodies and breathes a revitalized life into them. When Pete Seeger heard it he said, this is one of the most beautiful recordings I have heard in all my 70 years....it's enough to make me want to learn the banjo all over again.

These mandolin duet arrangements of the music of J. S. Bach are drawn from several sources. Most are arrangements of keyboard pieces from The Anna Magdalena Notebook, English and French Suites, Two-Part Inventions, and some miscellaneous keyboard pieces. Some of these are duet arrangements of music originally intended for solo violin or lute. The duets range in difficulty from easy to advanced. While these are arrangements for two mandolins, any two concert pitch instruments can play them.
