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.

Violin Duets. Par IGUDESMAN ALEKSEY. There is no doubt about Aleksey Igudesman's admiration for Mozart and his music and these 'Igudesmanised' pieces for two violins would most likely have Mozart himself laughing, were he to hear them. The 10 pieces for two violins such as 'A Very Little Night Music' through to 'Loud Date and Domino' will be enjoyed by all including two inspired by Mozart but composed by Igudesman himself. There is also a free bonus piece, 'Concertino in G', as a digital sheet music download included. 'Whether the pieces in this book are unmistakably 'Igudesman' is for you to judge, but I am quite convinced that Mozart, were he alive, would have had a laugh if he heard them... before he sued me for copyright infringement!'

Igudesman-style for two violins Performance pieces full of humour and quirkiness for the stage or even for busking Background notes for each piece are provided / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Recueil / 2 Violons
