Wolfgang Amadeus: Mozart 12 Duets K. 487 ARRANGED FOR TWO VIOLINS

About the course

Mozart’s 12 Duets, K. 487 are a delightful collection of short pieces filled with elegance, wit and musical conversation. Originally composed in 1786 for clarinet and basset horn, these duets translate beautifully into two violins, offering a wonderful opportunity to explore Mozart’s musical language through ensemble playing. Play them with your teacher, your student, or a friend. The two parts constantly interact, encouraging both players to listen, respond and shape the music together rather than simply focusing on their own individual line. These duets are especially valuable for developing important chamber music skills such as listening, ensemble balance, articulation, phrasing, rhythmic precision and musical communication. Designed with a clean, easy-to-read layout and bar numbers to support both practice and performance, the arrangements are suitable for beginner to intermediate violinists, teachers, students and chamber music lovers. Sheet Music Included Full score for Violin 1 & Violin 2 Separate Violin 1 part Separate Violin 2 part Bar numbers for easy reference during lessons and rehearsals Professionally engraved PDF sheet music And this is only the beginning. The course begins with No. 1 – Allegro, and as part of the SHIVA Sheet Music Academy, it can continue to grow with additional duets from the collection, together with practice ideas, technical tips, musical guidance and other learning resources. Our goal is not simply to give you sheet music and leave you to practice alone. We want to explore Mozart’s music together with you — helping you listen more deeply, understand how the two parts communicate, and experience the joy of making chamber music with another violinist. Play together. Listen together. Learn together. Enjoy the music.
