Originally written for two violins, arranged by Erinn Renyer for 4 cellos. Cello I- II in tenor clef with thumb position. Cellos III and IV through 4th position. Challenges that Bach can present… Includes parts with score.
Duets are graded in four volumes, both parts of equal difficulty. Volume II uses half, 1st and 2nd positions. Pieces are more rhythmically challenging, and instructional tips are provided as to bowing. We usually stock this book for Two Violins and Two Violas which matches the cello book, so you can play violin-cello or viola-cello duets. A piano accompaniment book is also available for purchase.
From 44 Duos for 2 Violins arranged for 2 violoncelli by Walter Kurz. At first blush the pieces appear deceptively simple. Most of the duets can be played with a working knowledge of first and second positions. However, phrasing, dynamic markings, changes in time signature, and complex rhythms quickly reveal much more intricate music happening here. While parts appear evenly matched, it will be helpful to play with a more advanced partner. Newer students will have questions. Highly recommended because of the broad scope of skills required and, after all, it is Bartok! The 18 pieces are short, absolutely loaded with material.
