Alexandre Lagoya once said: 'For one Guitar you can write what the Guitar will allow you to write. For two Guitars you can write what you choose.' While there is a measure of overstatement in this it remains true that themedium of two Guitars allows much greater creative freedom to the composer.There are many kinds of Guitar-duo works- at one extreme the very simple at the other the call for two virtuosi; those in this book inhabit themiddle of this spectrum. They are not in effect accompanied Guitar solos but equal duets in which two players of moderate technical ability converse with one another sharing the lead. This they do without sacrificing musicalinterest.Two of the pieces consist of variations on folk tunes - Shades of Green uses the Irish tune The Next Market Day while Varieties of Scotch is based on the well known Scottish tune YeBanks and Braes. The remaining duet is an affectionate nod in the ragtime direction of Scott Joplin. The two sets of variations are suitable for concert use and Joblinesque is a natural encore piece.

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.
