Does anyone know of any duets for violin and piano, both "easy"? I
know of tons of violin duets, violin/viola duets and easy violin works
with piano accompaniment (usually not "easy"), but not anything
specifically for two children to play together, violin and piano.

Your help appreciated..

Well the Dvorak Op 100 Sonatina is compartively easy and is great
music. It's actually better than his Op 57 sonata. He wrote it for his
own two surviviing kids. I would think some of the Mozart juvenalia
sonatas would be OK.

Is there anything in the Samuel Applebaum series? They are usually
graded. I know the two violin stuff, but I think he wrote others.

Could you give us some idea of the level of these kids, perhaps in
Suzuki grade terms. Also what are their ages and years of taking
violin.
