Composed by Daniel Hay. 20th Century,Chamber,Classical,Contemporary,Multicultural,World. Score. 3 pages. Daniel Hay Music #763509. Published by Daniel Hay Music (A0.1163156).

This duet was first written and performed with Alto and Tenor Recorders. It is close harmony and delightful to play or listen to. It has been performed from this sheet music with flutes, oboes, clarinets, and violins so should be perfect for most treble clef instruments. The sample .mp3 is voiced for Alto and Tenor Recorders. The YouTube link is a flowing score created for the composer by www.youtube.com/@GonzaloOrtizDelgado and is also voiced with recorder.
