J. S. Bach’s two-part keyboard pieces form a significant body of musical literature but only occasionally have they been arranged for strings. This carefully transcribed collection of cello duets and its two companion volumes Duets for Two Violins (MB # 21437) and Duets for Two Violas (MB # 21438) bring many additions taken from Bach’s suites preludes and inventions to the string player’s repertoire. Intermediate and advanced instrumentalistswill delight in the musical complexity contrapuntal dialogue and variety of moods in these pieces. Since bowing and fingering preferences vary greatly among string players editorial marks have been kept to a minimum. These arrangements are an attractive valuable addition to string ensemble work.

This collection contains twenty-four pieces from 18th and 19th century Scotland. Included are airs and dance tunes originally for voice or fiddle. These duet arrangements are perfect for student and teacher as well as cellocolleagues. The music is presented in sets of two or three tunes ready for performance. The traditional music of Scotland has unique and beautiful qualities and is fun to play.
