Posted: 7/11/05 at 4:26pmHey everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew of any great male-male duets, fast or slow for a tenor and a bass? The only ones I can think of so far are "What You Own" and "Agony", any help is appreciated!

Posted: 7/11/05 at 4:34pmI CAN SEE IT from THE FANTASTICKS. Not quite tenor/bass, but a tenor and a bass could, easily, handle it.

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive.
"Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot."
"No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one."
Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

6. "Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it, feel it and pass it on. Not for me, not for you, but for someone, somewhere, one day. Pass it on, boys. That's the game I want you to learn. Pass it on." -The History Boys

I have no idea about the voice parts, but my favorite duet for two men is "You're Nothing Without Me" from City of Angels.
Oh, and "It Would Have Been Wonderful" from A Little Night Music is ...well, pretty wonderful...

Um... Consider Yourself from Oliver?
The Riddle Song from Floyd Collins. One's a tenor, but the other I believe is a high baritone so that may not help.
There's a song from Damn Yankees that I can't think of...

Posted: 7/11/05 at 4:56pmI'm surprised nobody's thought to mention the three male/male duets from The Producers: We Can Do It, Where Did We Go Right, and Till Him

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

There are two great male-male duets in Martin Guerre :
Live with somebody you love
If you still love me
In my heart, I found the answered dream,
and in my soul I found the song, and in my friends
I found the magic, the love,
the moon up above- they were mine, all mine, all along..!

You and I from Bare
And the other thing about the Phantom Lady was, Bert, she realized, in the city that never sleeps...
What did she realize, Kitten?
That all the songs she'd listened to, all the love songs, that they were only songs.
What's wrong with that?
Nothing, if you don't believe in them. But she did, you see. She believed in enchanted evenings, and she believed that a small cloud passed overhead and cried down on a flower bed, and she even believed there was breakfast to be had...
Where?
On Pluto. The mysterious, icy wastes of Pluto.

Posted: 7/11/05 at 5:18pmHow about the "I Don't Remember You" and "Sometimes A Day Goes By" sequence from And The World Goes 'Round. That gives each a solo that then is layered into and AMAZING duet.

Posted: 7/11/05 at 5:47pm"The Country's in the Very Best of Hands" from Li'l Abner. Good comic number, and I think the parts are tenor and bass.
It's too early for noches.

Posted: 7/11/05 at 7:30pmWell.. Ill cover you is NOT a Tenor/bass duet. its more about Tenor/Baritone Collins sings too high to be a Bass, so maybe he is a baritone. but I KNOw he is not a bass.
