About This Collection
Description
String small ensemble music covers over 1100 titles ranging from foundational duets to advanced chamber works. Shinichi Suzuki's Duets for Violins and Samuel Applebaum's Beautiful Music for Two String Instruments series form the backbone of what teachers reach for most, offering carefully graded repertoire for developing string players. The collection spans masterworks by Haydn, Beethoven, and Mozart alongside accessible arrangements, folk settings, and pieces suited for festival competition.
Highlights
Teachers consistently return to Shinichi Suzuki's Duets for Violins and Samuel Applebaum's Beautiful Music for Two String Instruments series across all four volumes. Applebaum's pedagogical approach to paired string instruments has made his work foundational in many studios, with Books I through IV available for both violin and cello.
Recently added
Recent additions include Paul Chihara's Sequoia for string quartet, Milton Babbitt's Dual for cello and piano, Béla Bartók's 83 Romanian Dances for viola duo, and Otto Luening's Lyric Scene for flute and strings. These titles bring contemporary and modernist voices alongside traditional chamber music.
Composer & Author Spotlight
Samuel Applebaum authored 39 titles in this collection and remains one of the most widely adopted creators for string duets. His Beautiful Music for Two String Instruments series, spanning four books for multiple instrument combinations, prioritizes musicality and accessible pedagogy alongside technical development.
Joanne Martin divides her time between Canada and France as a composer, teacher, and performer with roots in the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra and Manitoba Chamber Orchestra. Her 46 titles in this collection reflect her dual background as both violist and composer, bringing chamber ensemble and orchestral sensibilities to small group writing.
Michael Story's 46 titles include the popular Movie Trios for All series, which adapts film scores and recognizable material for flexible string instrumentation. His work appeals to teachers looking to engage students with familiar melodies in chamber settings.
Ludwig van Beethoven and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart anchor the collection's classical core with 33 and 32 titles respectively. Their duets and trios, including Beethoven's Three Duets for Violin and Cello and Mozart's Serenade in C K648, remain standard repertoire for intermediate ensemble work.
