21 Duets From '44 Duos For 2 Violins' Arr. For Viola And Cello

Six Duets For 2 Violins Op. 23. The ?Six Duos concertans?, which are today known under the opus number 23, feature wonderful instrumental music by Ignaz Pleyel. In contrast to other works to which the composer assigned the attribute ?easy?, the pieces from op. 23 are designated ?concertante?. They are indeed more demanding in terms of execution, but at the same time appealing works from the quill of the then extremely popular Pleyel, works that are eminently usable in music lessons and recitals. The uniformly two-movement compositions bring together great melodic richness and eclectic forms in their colourful mixture of sonata movements, rondos, minuets and variations. Like all Urtext editions of instrumental music from Henle, this edition is also comfortably equipped: an unmarked performance score is supplemented by two enclosed parts whose markings stem from Evelyne Grüb-Trauer?s many years of teaching experience. The first Urtext edition of these popular duets!

Six Duos (op. 48) for two Violins-These easy duets were published around 1796/97 by Pleyel???s own publishing house both as Six Duos faciles et progressives for two violins and as Six nouvelles Sonatines progressives for piano and violin though we do not know today which version came first. To this day the violin duets are favorites for use in violin lessons but also for making music at home. Though lesser known today around 1800 Ignaz Pleyel numbered among the most popular composers in Western Europe - which may at first come as a surprise but which to judge from these very appealing pieces manageable for advanced beginners is easily understandable. With an unmarked score and two marked solo parts the Urtextedition provides optimal material for use in teaching.

These unique musical miniatures combine folk melodies from Eastern Europe with the musical language of the twentieth century in an exciting blend of tradition and modernity. For the present sheet music twenty of these duos for saxophones (of the same pitch) were arranged. The pieces allow players to share the pleasure of chamber music while exploring this fascinating sound world. On alto saxophones, most of the duets sound in the original keys (Nos. 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 16, 17). For the other duets Marcin Langer selected a key based on the sound of the piece and its suitability for the saxophone. • These unique musical miniatures combine folk melodies from Eastern Europe with the musical language of the twentieth century/ Répertoire / 2 Saxophones
