Bossa de Bastião is an exciting original composition by David McKeown, arranged as a duet for one Violin and one Clarinet.

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. Bossa de Bastião has a performance time of around two and a half minutes. You can listen to a full performance the Clarinet version of this duet by following the YouTube link above.

Jingle Bells is perhaps the best known of all Christmas songs. This version is arranged as a duet in a Jazz style for one Flute and one Violin. Click on the YouTube link above to listen to a full length performance of this arrangement played on Clarinet.

When James Lord Pierpont wrote Jingle Bells in 1857, he had no intention of writing a Christmas song. The Christmas association had been made though by the dawn of the recording age, and the song has been popular across the world ever since. Jingle Bells holds the distinction of being the first song performed in space, sung by American astronauts in 1965.

With a performance time of around three and a half minutes, this version of Jingle Bells is perfect for seasonal celebrations and concert performances, both formal and informal. The jazz style is a fun and fresh take on this familiar tune.

Jingle Bells is arranged in a key and range best suited to the instruments. The melody first appears in standard jazz swing, but most of the arrangement is in 5/4. This arrangement is suitable for players at an intermediate level.
