Where To Get Classic Violin And Cello Duets

By Daniel Gibson


The ears of a listener and the fingers of a violinists or cellist will always appreciate a duet that is well written. This explains why there are very few violin and cello duets that are worth their name. Finding a good piece is therefore great relief for the instrumentalist who wishes to practice or perform. But where are these great pieces people talk about?

Choose a composer whose duet you wish to perform. There are composers with a reputation of delivering excellent pieces for violinists and cellists. There are books with great pieces by different composers that you might want to try. These composers produced excellent pieces for different occasions. The best of composers have scores for amateurs and pros. This means that your options are sufficient.

Do you have a specific duet in mind? You might have learnt it in class or come across other performers executing it. You may also have heard its audio somewhere and are looking for the music score. It will be easier to find the piece because you have a specific title in mind. You can search on music websites or libraries for the specific piece.

Speak to your colleagues and peers for assistance. They will help you with specific musical scores that they are using or have come across. Peers are reliable because they understand what you can handle and what you cannot. Friends also know your type of music and will help you find it. They also refer you to places where you can get musical scores easily. Friends encourage you to go higher by providing better pieces. You will never get it wrong when you talk to friends.

Orchestras and music schools have repositories that you can use. There is a high volume of musical pieces by these institutions. Some even play the pieces during events. From the videos and audios they upload, you can choose a captivating piece. Compare their execution of the piece and find a reason to enhance your skills.

Check websites that accompany their music scores with audios. This gives you a chance to listen to the audio before downloading. You are sure of the music you are downloading and do not have to wait for performance to know how it will sound. The audios must be expertly prepared and accurate. You will need these audios to gauge your performance. If your performance does not tally with that of the recorded audio, you will have a reason to revise your practice sessions.

Read reviews done by other cellists and violinists on the pieces they have interacted with. These are passionate instrumentalists who appreciate quality music. They have played the duet and can feel its quality. Their recommendations will focus on such areas as quality of composition, appropriateness of performance and skill level required. This will turn you into an excellent performer.

Choose a piece that is fit for the occasion you will be performing. Consult your mentor or trainer to recommend duets that will enhance your skills.
