The volume of duets in the Frohliche Klarinette series contains easy-to-play duets from various music styles: classical music, jazz, blues, klezmer, rock and folk music.In the first part, the melody is at first in the lower register and, when repeated, an octave higher. Thus, it is possible to become familiar with the overblown tones and stabilize them in a pleasant way. Many of the pieces do not contain any overblown tones in the second part at all.Apart from their use in music lessons, the pieces are also perfect for concerts, recitals or other special events. The duets from jazz, blues, rock, klezmer and folk music contain additional harmonic signs (for C instruments) which allow for accompaniment with guitar, piano, etc.
