I am a violinist of grade seven standard and need to find an ensemble piece to perform at school. Any ideas for suitable string quartet or duets for two violins of around grade 6 standard?
thank you in advance

Answer
yes...you have a lot to choose from but why don't you try the 3 little serenades of Mozart, K136,7 and 8. they are fun, really good music and not too difficult and shouldn't cost too much. they are also known as "The Salzburg Symphonies"
good luck
