Wendy the Wonky Witch is a spooky and original duet written by David McKeown for one Flute and one Violin. 

Wendy the Wonky Witch is one in a series of ten Halloween-themed duets each presenting a portrait of a different Halloween character. All ten can be bought together in one collection by searching for 10 Spooky Halloween Duets for Flute and Violin.

Wendy tries her best, but she’s a bit of a failure at witching. She developed a fear of flying after her broomstick started chasing seagulls, and her tadpole stew, (which tastes of chocolate cake), explodes if left overnight.

Wendy the Wonky Witch is suitable for players at an advanced intermediate level and above. The main melody in 6/8 is medium fast with chromatic passages, while the slower middle section is a lyrical waltz. The range is accessible for both players. With a playing-time of around three minutes, Wendy the Wonky Witch is a perfect spooky addition to any performance program, formal or informal.

Eleanor Rigby first appeared on the Beatles’ 1966 album, Revolver. There has been much speculation over the identity of Eleanor Rigby, and a gravestone bearing that name has been discovered close to where Paul McCartney grew up in Liverpool. But Paul McCartney insists that he chose the natural-sounding name as a combination of a friend’s name and a shop he noticed in Bristol. Indeed, the original working title of the song was Miss Daisy Hawkins.

This version of Eleanor Rigby is arranged as a duet for one Alto and Tenor Saxophone. The YouTube sample above is the Alto Saxophone version of this duet.

Musicians at an intermediate level will find this ideal for formal and informal concert performance. The overall performance time is around two and a half minutes.

Teachers will enjoy using this arrangement as a fun way to help with ensemble skills and expressive playing.

Mambo de Maya is an exciting original composition by David McKeown, arranged as a duet for one Flute and one Violin.

This duet is based on the fast, traditional Latin style of Mambo that emerged in Cuba in the 1930s.

Amor, (Portuguese for Love), is an exciting original composition by David McKeown, arranged as a duet for one Violin and one Cello, and is one of series of pieces celebrating Love in different languages around the world.

This duet is based on the Brazilian style of Bossa Nova which evolved in Rio de Janeiro during the late 1950s. Bossa in its purest form is lyrical song accompanied by nylon-stringed guitar. The rhythm derives from Samba but is played at around half tempo. The harmony is often complex and influenced by jazz; indeed it was the collaboration between guitarist João Gilberto and American Saxophonist Stan Getz that led to the huge international popularity of Bossa Nova in the 1960s and beyond.

If you play to an intermediate standard and upwards, then you and your audience will enjoy this piece. Rhythms should be lightly articulated, the melody should always flow, and following the articulation in the score will help convey the style. Amor has a performance time of around three minutes. Click the link above to listen to a full YouTube performance of the clarinet version of Amor.

The Chocolate Chalypso is a fun and original duet written by David McKeown for one Clarinet and one Trumpet. 

Chocolate Chalypso is one in a series of ten Easter-themed duets each written in a different American dance style. In the late ‘50s just a handful of national TV shows in the US had a huge influence on the music and dance crazes of the time. Artists and dances came and went with dizzying speed. Chalypso was a short-lived craze in 1958 that combined the music of the new Rock’n’Roll with much-simplified steps borrowed from Cha Cha and Calypso; and no sooner had it caught on than it was itself supplanted by The Twist.

Chocolate Chalypso is suitable for players at an intermediate level and above, with the accessible key and range balanced by some syncopated rhythms and accidentals. With a playing-time of around one and a half minutes, Chocolate Chalypso is a perfect upbeat addition to any performance program, formal or informal.
