David McKeown #5744021. Published by David McKeown (A0.589177). Merengue de Merlín is an exciting original composition by David McKeown, arranged as a duet for one Violin and one Viola.This duet is based on the traditional Latin style of Merengue that emerged in the Dominican Republic during the Nineteenth Century. Merengue Tipico bands maintain the traditional instrumentation of the double-headed tambora drum, güira, accordion and vocal, while urban bands in the North American diaspora often add saxophone, bass and other percussion. The Merengue dance became hugely popular in the 1950s and new forms continue to draw audiences around the world.If you play to an intermediate standard and upwards, then you and your audience will enjoy this piece. The steady quintilla tambora rhythm is present throughout, and following the precise articulation in the score will help convey the style. The main challenge is the fast tempo and melodies should be clearly articulated. Merengue de Merlín has a performance time of around two and a half minutes at full tempo. You can listen to a full performance the Alto Saxophone version of this duet by following the YouTube link above.There are many more top quality arrangements and compositions by David McKeown for you to browse at http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/publishers/david-mckeown/6203

Instrumental Duet Instrumental Duet,Viola,Violin - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1128161 By Queen. By Freddie Mercury. Arranged by Krista Broadway Swider. Rock. Score and parts. 9 pages. Krista Swider #728777. Published by Krista Swider (A0.1128161). This arrangement for violin and viola duo is set in the same key as the original song. The intro begins at a slower tempo (quarter note equals 94) with legato arpeggiated eighth notes and chords in the viola. These imitate Freddie Mercury's piano accompaniment while the violin plays the lyrical vocal melody. A quick tempo change (notated according to Queen's recording of the piece, at quarter note equals 144) sets up the first full verse and chorus for a raucous good time with driving chords in the accompaniment and the upbeat vocal line traded off between instruments. In Queen's recording, Don't Stop Me is sung/chanted with drums emphasizing off beats in the bridge. This arrangement emulates Queen's original bridge with accented eighth notes and the sing song melody traded between violin and viola. Each instrument gets a stab at the following electric guitar riff while the other plays edgy chords as backup. After a recap of verse and chorus, the song returns to the original slower tempo and the parts instruct the players to fade out. Parts and score are bowed.
