The Duet Exercises are classic melodies played in unison. Unison fingering functions like a “Hanon study” to train finger dexterity and strength. The duets also provide practice in reading single lines of music with the left hand added in unison, which gives students confidence and willingness to play on their own. Once the duets are learned, they can be played for fun or performed as a duet with the included secondo part.
