12/15/2023 0 Comments Keeping it simple recorder duet![]() I think what you really want to know is whether you should trouble to learn alto. For one thing, plenty of duets, especially from the Renaissance, don't specify instrument at all there's plenty of 16th century music with very narrow ranges that can be played on many instruments (including both soprano and alto recorders). She's probably got a range similar to a beginning recorder player, and beginner recorder duets may work well for you two.Īs to whether there's more duets for alto or soprano, that's almost an almost irrelevant question in your project. If your daughter is a beginner, you may find it most expedient to search on "beginner duets for recorders". I recommend The Early Music Workshop of New England, where most of the people who answer the phone are recorder players. That's the person who probably best knows your daughter's ability on the violin and can recommend music in her ability range. The first is your daughter's violin instructor. There's two parties that likely can help make specific recommendations though. Even if it weren't off topic, it's hard to make music recommendations in the absence of a sense of the player's skill levels. We can't really help with that sort of hyper-specific question here. That is, you're looking for "that subset of duets that can be played on recorder (when I'm the recorder player) and violin (when my daughter is the violinist)." General questions about recorder and violin duets won't move you towards answers to this radically more specific question. So what you're really looking for a specific subset of duets that can be played on recorder + violin. This can be either a bug or a feature, depending on whether the two people who want to play together are similar or different in musical ability. Secondly, a lot of duets from the Renaissance have very different difficulty levels between the two parts. If she's a beginner herself, the music you're looking for won't just have to fit the range of your instrument, it's going to need to fit the smaller range of notes she knows how to play on hers (probably a much smaller set than the full range of a violin!) There's a couple of interesting wrinkles.įirst, you don't say where your daughter is in her violin study - that is, how much of a beginner she is (or isn't). I don't know the answer to your questions, but I'm answering the question you didn't ask: I want to play duets with my daughter how do I do that?
