Cello,Instrumental Duet,Violin - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.565594 By Sharon Wilson. By Traditional. Arranged by Sharon Wilson. Children,Christmas,Folk,Sacred,Traditional. 6 pages. Sharon Wilson #4854843. Published by Sharon Wilson (A0.565594). Here is a fun instrumental duet arrangement (for VIOLIN and CELLO) of the traditional Christmas carol "I Saw Three Ships." Flowing and rhythmic throughout, this string duet arrangement will add variety and interest to your seasonal repertoire and holiday concerts.This arrangement includes 3 verses separated by complimentary interludes. The VIOLIN leads with the melody for two of the verses but in different octaves. The CELLO takes the melody for the middle verse. This song is written in 6/8 time which will help develop skill playing in this less common time signature. Also, using hooked bows for the quarter–eighth note combinations will produce a more flowing, rhythmic sound.This is an excellent selection for early-intermediate string players since all notes for the VIOLIN and CELLO are playable in the first position with one exception for the cello (the C#3 requires an extension/stretch of the 4th finger on the G string or shift to 2nd position).The purchase price includes a 3-page combined score with both parts on each page (VIOLIN and CELLO) plus separate 1-staff scores for the VIOLIN and CELLO (1 page each).This arrangement is one of the 10 songs in the collection "Easy String Duets: Christmas Carols (A Collection of 10 Violin and Cello Duets)."Visit Sharon Wilson's website: https://www.sharonwilsonmusic.com/Subscribe to her YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/@SharonWilsonMusic This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
