Composed by David McKeown. Jazz,Latin,World. Score and parts. 56 pages. David McKeown #5866253. Published by David McKeown (A0.589183).10 Latin Duets is an exciting collection of original compositions by David McKeown, arranged as duets for one Violin and one Viola.
Each piece explores a different style and flavour of Latin music, from the Rumbas, Salsas and Mambos of Cuba, to the Sambas and Bossas of Brazil, and on to the Calypsos and Merengues of the Caribbean. Mexico is represented by the Huapango, Venezuela and Colombia by the Joropo, and Argentina and Uruguay by the Tango.
Most of these duets are ideal for players of an Intermediate standard, with two or three more suitable for Advanced Intermediate. The YouTube link above shows samples of each of these pieces played on clarinet. You can also find full performances of each of these duets elsewhere on my YouTube channel.
