Book Description

12 Christmas Duets for Bass Clef Instruments by Kenneth Baird: Duets on Traditional Christmas Carols for Intermediate and Advanced Players is a delightful collection of intermediate to advanced level duets based on traditional Christmas carols. They are challenging at times (not for beginners) without being overwhelming; at times joyful, at times uplifting, at times serene. In addition to being a great resource for teachers to play at lessons with their students, these duets are suitable for informal Christmas performances and many are appropriate for church services. Note: No effort has been made by the arranger to make these duets for bass clef compatible with most of the duet collections he has arranged for other instruments. These duets are arranged specifically for bass clef brass and woodwind instruments. The exception is that these bass clef duets are compatible with the trumpet duets with the same title. Included are: Away in a Manger; Deck the Halls; Hark! The Herald Angels Sing; Joy to the World; O Come All Ye Faithful; O Come, O Come Emmanuel; O Holy Night; O Little Town of Bethlehem; Silent Night; The Wassail Song; We Wish You a Merry Christmas and What Child is This? Be certain to also check "Five More Christmas Duets" and "Carol of the Bells" duet by the same composer/arranger. Level: Advanced Intermediate - Advanced.
