Anyone know of any easy classical alto/bass duets? Or, mezzo/bass.
I've looked so hard....I don't think they exist!

Thanks!

Soprano/Tenor duets are everywhere - you could take one of those and transpose it a few notes down. It depends on the kind of accompaniment you will have at your disposal - piano would obviously be easier to shift than full orchestra.
