Product studyHal Leonard Rubank 78 Duets for Flute And Clarinet Vol 1 Easy/Medium

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Student pairs practicing ensemble timing and intonation together
  • A teacher playing the second part alongside a student
  • Flute and clarinet players building sight-reading stamina in duo settings

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Solo players with no second musician available
  • Advanced players wanting technically demanding repertoire
  • Anyone who cannot yet read standard notation fluently

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

Easy/Medium level

Sits above absolute beginner. Assumes you read notation and have basic tone control in the middle register.

Detail 02

Flute and clarinet pairing

Parts are written for both instruments, so two flutes or two clarinets can also read through it.

Detail 03

78 duets, Volume 1

Enough material for months of weekly lessons. Volume 1 means the difficulty ramp continues in later books.

Detail 04

Standard notation only

No fingering charts or method instruction. This is repertoire, not a course in how to play.

Detail 05

Rubank series

Long-running educational line, so it slots alongside other Rubank method books without a difficulty jump.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01You need a second player. These are duets, not solo pieces.
  2. 02No audio, backing tracks, or play-along recordings are included.
  3. 03Not a method book — it assumes you can already read music

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Can I play these alone?

Each part is playable on its own, but the music is written to interlock. Alone, you get one line of a two-line piece.

02How hard is easy/medium really?

Roughly first-to-second-year student level. You should be comfortable reading notation and playing steadily in common keys.

03Do I need both a flute and a clarinet?

No. Two flutes or two clarinets can play the parts as well, since both lines are printed in the book.

04Is there a Volume 2?

This is labeled Volume 1, which indicates the series continues. Check availability separately for later volumes.
