[ CE-14] Silent Night, In Dulci Jubilo, Adoremus Te, The Holly and the Ivy, Away in the Manger. Includes parts and score. Cello I requires the cellist to play at least through upper third position. Other cellists can stay in first but the more positions you know, the more opportunities you have to vibrate longer notes. Pretty arrangements, even if your group is more advanced. Arranged by Erinn Renyer.
This is a single book with both parts in score form. All duets are written in bass clef, do not require positions above fourth, and are popular with cellists with similar skill sets. A variety of accessible keys and time signatures within your comfortable note range.
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.
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.
