This is a PERFECT duet for a beginner, with three repeating phrases and an easy step-wise melody.

Alphanotes in this arrangement, but there are others without the lettered notes!

Amazing Grace music for piano beginner level

Amazing Grace

This well-beloved hymn works well as a duet; see the page for a secondo part as well.

Don't let your beginners miss out on Garry Owen.

The Golden Wedding - a piano trio for beginners

Golden Wedding

Okay, this one is actually a TRIO, not a duet.  Here is Part 1, using fancy fingering. 

But you will also find a duet version and a solo arrangement on this page!


The simple melody of What Child is This (Greensleeves), suitable for piano duet

Greensleeves

Also known as the Christmas song "What Child is This," Greensleeves is one of the loveliest melodies of all time.

Piano duet version of "What Child is This," the Greensleeves melody

Greensleeves with expanded accompaniment & lettered notes

This is page 3 of a 4-page arrangement; this shows the combined primo/secondo that I play along while my students play the broken chords of Greensleeves.

Happy Birthday

Several arrangements of Happy Birthday are on this page.

An easy version of the piano duet by Brahms, Hungarian Dance Number 5

Hungarian Dance

A conductor's score approach for this great dance by Brahms.

A piano duet for beginners and late elementary, I'm a Pirate

I'm a Pirate

This song about pirates is 2 pages long, with lyrics that may seem obvious but are little-boy approved! 

Furthermore, the melody is strong and singable.

A Christmas piano duet, Jolly Old Saint Nicholas

Jolly Old Saint Nicholas

A very easy Christmas carol, with very sweet words.  I loved this song when I was a child.

A jazzy piano duet for beginner plus intermediate piano students

Little Man Who Wasn't There

This song is surprisingly fun and satisfying to play, even as a  solo, but it just SNAPS when the duet parts are played together well! 

My students work hard to polish this little piece.

A duet for piano: Minka, a song from the Ukraine

Minka

A famous Russian - or Ukrainian - folk song, this has lots of energy. 

It is fun to play it faster and FASTER.

Spanish Ladies, a song of the sea, as a piano duet.

Spanish Ladies

This great song of the sea comes in Cm (shown) and also in D minor. 

The secondo is full of big chords. 

More arrangements, for solo piano and for guitar, are also available on the Spanish Ladies page.

The Spanish Lady easy piano sheet music

The Spanish Lady 

This is a bouncy, happy-sounding Irish song!  

With a story about a pretty lady with amazing habits ("washing her feet by candlelight"), and a chorus with silly words ("whack fol the toora loora laddy"), this engaging music is fun to play!

The secondo chords are easy, with just enough of a challenge to command careful attention.

An Irish song piano duet, full of fun and energy!  The Star of the County Down.

Star of the County Down

This song may look  odd, since I have doubled the timing (used quarters instead of eighth notes, for example). 

That's to make it easier for beginners to read. 

Don't pass it up on that account - there are other versions on the page, and this song is TOTALLY FUN.  For me, too!  I always love starting another young pianist on this piece.

Take Me Out to the Ballgame for beginner piano students, a DUET!

Take Me Out to the Ballgame

This song is not in Middle C position, but I've made it easier to read by pointing left hand note stems DOWN and right hand stems UP. 

There is a secondo as well, with an OOM-pah-pah sound that makes it swing!





A piano ensemble for a class of keyboard players, Toccata by Monteverdi

Toccata from L'Orfeo

NOT a duet, but a piano ensemble, for a piano class. 

This arrangement sounds very cool with trumpet and other brass sounds for the keyboard selections. 

VERY tricky rhythm patterns, but in a group, getting those rhythms going is part of the fun!

A piano duet that is a pretty waltz by Schubert, Valse Noble.

Valse Noble, Schubert

This piece by Schubert is not easy... but it is utterly charming. 

To play it successfully  one needs mastery of chord inversions. 

Because this is in the key of C, this lovely duet might be doable for students beginning that journey.

Piano duet Wabash Cannonball, full of energy

Wabash Cannonball

Really fun lyrics, and a secondo that uses energetic boogie chords, sets this song about a train apart.

Duet piano music Waltzing Matilda, a pretty song from Australia

Waltzing Matilda

This song from Australia practically sings itself... kids LOVE it. 

The words are a bit whacky to a non-native, but that makes the song even more fun. 

The secondo is very pretty.
