Trumpet players all around the world enjoy
playing duets: for performance, for developing sight-reading
skills, and often just for fun. However, when it comes to
Christmas duets, a majority of those published by major music
publishers are for elementary level players.

Kenneth Baird is a delightful collection of seasonal duets suitable for
intermediate to advanced level musicians. What can you expect from this
book? It will be "challenging at times, without being overwhelming; at
