Christmas duets
on: October 07, 2012, 05:22:29 PM
Does anyone here know any nice Christmas duets? I am looking for,preferably, a flashy popular tune around 4-8 minutes. Difficult Christmas duets are really hard to find! Thank you all in advance! :)

smp level 8, texture isn't too complicated but it's quick, some funky harmonies and intricate rhythms and such.

it's short though, you might need to pair it w a 2nd short one if you're pressed hard to fill that 5 minutes up. ::)
