Here is an easy instrumental duet arrangement (for VIOLIN and CELLO) of the famous classical song Ode to Joy by Ludwig van Beethoven. When used in its hymn form as in this arrangement, this tune is usually associated with the lyrics by Henry van Dyke under the title Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee. This song is fun for both parts and a valuable addition to the repertoire for beginning string players. This song is frequently used as a first recital piece or in a church setting.The VIOLIN leads with the melody throughout, but the CELLO part has lots of movement to keep it interesting. All notes for both the VIOLIN and CELLO are playable in the first position making this arrangement an excellent choice for early-intermediate string players.   The purchase price includes a 2-page combined score with both parts on each page (VIOLIN and CELLO) plus separate 1-staff scores for the VIOLIN and CELLO (1 page each).
