By Lady Antebellum. By Johnny Marks. Arranged by Wendy Hellmann. Children,Christmas,Holiday,Pop,Rock. Score. 5 pages. Gwendolyn Hellmann #701205. Published by Gwendolyn Hellmann (A0.1097250).

This cheerful duet is for the intermediate ensemble. Both parts switch between playing the bass line and playing the melody. The eighth notes are written to be swung. There is a key change from C to D Major, and minimal shifting to third position is required in both Viola 1 and Viola 2. This is the perfect addition to a string holiday recital! The PDF download contains both a full score and a set of individual parts - Viola 1 and Viola 2. Each individual part is formatted on a single page to avoid page turns.

Composed by John Alcock, Jr. Arranged by Phil Beaman. Classical,Instructional,Standards. Score. 3 pages. Phil Beaman #3365201. Published by Phil Beaman (A0.844454).

A Siciliano is based on a graceful rustic dance of Sicily, and is considered a type of Pastorale. The Siciliano style always has dotted rhythms. It is normally in compound time, but I have changed it here to make it more accessible for beginners.  
This arrangement is based on the opening theme from Voluntary II for Organ by John Alcock, Jr. Mr. Alcock was an organist from the Classical Period and this piece is a great example of the Classical characteristics with a lyrical melody of light elegance.
The two parts, which each stay within the range of 1 octave, are equally balanced, playing in parallel thirds much of the time, and the rest of the time playing off of each other in tight ensemble work.  
This makes a great recital piece to develop your melodic tone and showcase the melodies of the Classical Period.  
(1 page score, 1 page @ part, with repeats - 2 1/2 minutes)

Composed by Phil Beaman. Classical,New Age. Score. 7 pages. Phil Beaman #4363397. Published by Phil Beaman (A0.844617).

Two people are playing a spirited games of marbles. The energetic music (Vivace) goes back and forth between the two players. Drama builds. Then an Andante Espressivo section as the victorious player pauses to admire the beauty of the striped marble he has just won. Then Round 2 in the dominant key and another striped marble in the bag. A Recapitulation and a Picardy Third conclude the game with satisfaction.  
The notes and rhythms are quite easy. (Some might find a slight challenge in the 1 1/2 octave range or the quick tempo).   The interest comes from the contrasting sections; energy vs espressivo, vivace vs andante, detached vs slurred.  
This piece is fun to play and very showy for concert.
84 bars; 2 minutes; 3 page score; 2 page part

One line of music played forwards and backwards simultaneously. The canon is notated two ways: on the first page it's shown as a single line of music in the alto clef; on the second page it's notated on the grand staff as a two-part piece, in order to be read by the player of a keyboard instrument.

Composed by Max Reger. Arranged by Phil Beaman. 20th Century,Standards. Score. 11 pages. Phil Beaman #684393. Published by Phil Beaman (A0.1080179).

The Praeludium from Suite No 3 in A minor is originally for unaccompanied Cello solo by Max Reger (1873-1916, written 1914). For this unaccompanied duet arrangement the melody was creatively deconstructed into two parts that continuously interact as if each instrument is finishing the other's thoughts. The harmonies are inspired by the original double stops. The arrangement remains stylistically faithful to Reger's use of constantly shifting dynamics and ever-present expression marks. This 4 1/2 minute work is a worthy challenge for a serious concert or recital. A new approach to this Masterwork of the repertoire. A live performance will be considerably freer and more expressive than the temporary MIDI recording attached. Range - same note range for both parts which is a wide 2 1/2 octaves. 5 page score, 3 pages each part.
