Christmas Duets for Descant (Soprano) and Treble (Alto) Recorders comprises of 21 favourite Traditional Christmas Carols arranged for two players of similar (intermediate) standard. This collection will be enjoyed year after year. Perfect for diving into the Christmas spirit, playing in lessons or with friends, entertaining the family or even busking. A great incentive for holiday practice.
All are in easy keys. The melody crosses between parts, which makes it a little trickier to play but is great practice for listening to each other - and fun. Most of the pieces are one or two pages in length and the book shows two parts together, not individual parts.Â
Includes: Jingle Bells, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, Good King Wenceslas, While Shepherds Watched, I Saw Three Ships, O Come All Ye Faithful, Once in Royal David’s City, Sussex Carol, Hark the Herald Angels Sing, Carol of the Drum, Ding Dong Merrily, Silent Night, Deck the Halls, We Three Kings and more.
More coming from The Excellent Oboe and The Brilliant Bassoon very soon. Look out for our solo, duets and trios, music arranged for mixed instruments: Flute, Clarinet, Bassoon, Oboe, Saxophone, Recorder, Trumpet, Trombone, Tuba, French Horn, Violin, Viola, Cello and Double Bass, Mini-bassoon, Tenoroon, Guitar etc. We have a spectacular variety of duet books, a gargantuan selection of festive books (including Christmas, Valentine’s and Halloween!), fun practice notebooks especially for your instrument, instrument-specific theory, including theory puzzles for very young players and even downloadable playalong and backing tracks and sheet music on our website.

Hi there - I'm just emailing you to tell you how much I love your Oboe duet books, especially the vast range of Christmas music! I have all of them! I'm an oboe and double bass teacher (I know!) based in Dublin, and I am very much a Christmas enthusiast. I'm known among my students for wearing Christmas socks 365 days a year (they've checked!!) I've taken on some double bass students this year, and I'll be buying your double bass Xmas duets to play with them. Given the brilliance of the oboe books, I'm really looking forward to it. Many thanks and keep up the good work! Eimear
Hello - I love the arrangements. We just played some today! Have a lovely Christmas and thanks for providing beginner bassoonists with some great music! Pauline
Hi there! I have been really impressed with your books! I have been wishing for a long time there was such a thing as instrument-specific theory books, and now I've found them. I've also been very pleased with your Christmas books. I just wanted to tell you how great I think your books are! Thank you ever so much- I will continue to use you and to recommend you to others Janine xxx
Your music books are great for beginners and improvers and the duet books are very well constructed. Ellen
