101 Original Duets for Trumpet
Trumpet players have been playing duets for fun for over a hundred years now. It is a way for us to have fun with our best friends while still using the time to make progress on our trumpets.
What makes Celebrations perfect for this kind of playing is that the duets progress in difficulty at a steady rate. The first duets are easy enough for beginners and the last duets are difficult enough to challenge most pros. Between the two extremes are 101 duet compositions to explore and perfect.
Here’s a video with Eddie Lewis talking about his duet book.
