Some of the pieces are quite lengthy and the duets are arranged so that each player has the melody at times and both parts are equally fun and challenging.

Intermediate and advanced level, with a few pieces included that can be enjoyed also by less experienced players. Professional guitarists will find this collection especially interesting.
