Two Duets
Two Duets

Bluzin F
Bluzin F
Basically a funky blues with some twists. This duet prominently features double stops, blues walking, and two part harmony.
Price: $9.99

No Greater Swing
No Greater Swing
Based on a standard. The melody is played twice, but the “2 feel” bass line is different in each melody. Good solid walking bass lines, and a challenging solo.
Price: $9.99

Miley
Miley
A study in 3/4 time based on a standard. Extensive interplay between the two parts and solid bass lines in a tune that is lyrical and fun to play.
Price: $9.99

Rithum
Rithum
Based on Rhythm Changes. This duet is made to be played up tempo. Many of the choruses are re-harmonized and at the end it becomes like a fugue. Very demanding!
Price: $9.99

Two Colors
Two Colors
This is a ballad that sounds better the slower it is played. The top line can be bowed or plucked. This is a study in phrasing, tone, time, and being lyrical.
Price: $9.99

The Thirteenth
The Thirteenth
A real challenge - the duet is in 13/4 but written as 6/4 and 7/4 to make it more readable. The top line is a technical and rhythmic challenge and the bottom is a study in “holding it down.” A crucial path to learning to play many time signatures.
Price: $9.99

Most of the Things

Price: $9.99
