Instrumental Duet Instrumental Duet,Piano - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.835645 Composed by George F. Handel, Felix Mendelssohn. Arranged by Renee Hyche McKee. Christian,Christmas,Concert,World. Score and parts. 11 pages. Renee H. McKee #6189565. Published by Renee H. McKee (A0.835645). A crowd pleaser! In this rhythmic toe-tapper both Joy to the World! and Hark! the Herald Angels Sing are given time in the spotlight and are also mashed into action together. Secondo’s opening first four notes of Joy to the World! are answered by the first phrase of Primo’s lively, syncopated Hark! the Herald Angels Sing. A compelling rhythmic drive (lucky Secondo player) pushes the piece into high gear while Joy to the World shines, then the syncopation dissolves into a Primo-frosted Hark! the Herald Angels Sing while Secondo brings its melody forward in a new key. Before you know it, the two songs swing back together and close out the piece with a spirited syncopated flair. Fingerings are added to help facilitate reading but are merely suggestions. Pedaling is to be used at the performers’ discretion. This piece is great for any Christmas event in churches, civic gatherings, or recitals. It is an exciting way to open or close a Holiday program!

March Of The Dragons is in the key of d minor.  The hand position for both hands of both players is in d position.The song begins with a gradual introduction of the players beginning with the left hand of the secundo part followed by an entrance of the right hand.  The left hand of the primo player is then introduced followed by the right hand.  This pattern is repeated later in the piece but with the addition of a crescendo throughout the entrances of each hand.  The primo part has the melody in the beginning with an ostinato in the secundo.  This ostinato is later split between the primo and secundo as they share the melody alternating in a question and answer fashion.Dragons marching will capture the imagination of the students and the layout of the song is a great opportunity to teach balance and reinforce the staccato against legato technique.   Listen to the entire arrangement on YouTube.  ASCAP.

Instrumental Duet Instrumental Duet,Piano - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.961564 Composed by Olly Wedgwood. Concert,Ragtime,Standards. Score and parts. 5 pages. OllysPianoSheets #5712083. Published by OllysPianoSheets (A0.961564). Cat & Mouse Rag is a playful ragtime duet for primo players at about the Grade 3 standard. With classic ragtime syncopation in the primo part against a 'stride' style in the secondo, this duet is sure to be a popular addition to any recital programme.For the introduction, the primo (perhaps the mouse?) starts things off with a bright opening statement that is answered by the secondo player (the cat?), and then the chase begins!During the opening theme, the primo has an opportunity to tease the cat with a cheeky staccato 'interjection'. Just before this high note is an acciaccatura grace note, which should be played as quickly as possible beforehand.The middle section then modulates to G minor for a variation on the theme, after which a rallentando culminates to a brief pause in the game. There is a break (a caesura) after the pause, so try to leave a good couple of seconds of suspense before launching back into the original theme a tempo.Keep and eye out for staccato and tenuto notes, which will help to communicate the playful feel of the piece.The duet ends with a call-and-response between the primo and secondo, then a crescendo to the ending hits - with a cheeky acciaccatura grace note from the mouse, of course :).

1 Piano,4 Hands,Piano Duet - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.893926 By Carolina Gaitan, Mauro Castillo, Adassa, Rhenzy. By Lin-Manuel Miranda. Arranged by Joan Bujacich. Contemporary. Score. 7 pages. Joan Bujacich #6747451. Published by Joan Bujacich (A0.893926). This is a  37 measure, 4-hand (duet),  piano arrangement of the very popular We Don't Talk About Bruno from the Disney movie, Encanto. The student part is on the Late Elementary, Junior Level. The student part has simplified the syncopated Latin rhythms and does not use anything faster than an eighth note in the notation.  The opening dialogue between Pepa and Felix is shared between the Student and  Teacher, with the Teacher playing the tricky answer lines of Pepa.  The Teacher part uses the rhythms of the original version and captures the Latin feel.  The lyrics are included! There also is a little section where the student claps on 2 and 4  to get the audience into the spirit!
