GENERAL PREFACE ΓΕΝΙΚΟΣ ΠΡΟΛΟΓΟΣThis edition of violin and violoncello duets follows closely my publication of the same Greek folk pieces for classical guitar. The arrangements for guitar solo were written in two-part counterpoint and followed the strophic form of the folk songs involved. The melodic transcriptions of the folk melodies were not based in any particular performance, also avoiding the elaborate in many cases instrumental introductions associated with these songs. Thus, only the vocal melodies in a general recognizable version were presented. This new presentation for instrumental duets will stay with this generalised melodic version (without exploiting the instrumental introductions), but the form from strophic will become ternary (ABA). In the middle section the main melody will be played in the lower voice and the original guitar contrapuntal voice will be used in the upper voice if by chance it includes invertible counterpoint, otherwise new material will be added to fit the rules but also the intended harmony.The total collection is centred more on the music from mainland Greece and less in that from the Islands.The three dance rhythms of Kalamatianos (7/8), Tsamikos (3/4), and Syrtos Balos (2/4) are predominant in the whole first collection.TECHNICALSeparate parts have been included and they can be extracted as separate files with any free PDF editing programme on line.Empty pages have been added for inclusion/deletion at will and left-right hand page arrangement.Thematic Index with active internal links for ease of navigation have been added.Audio file (mp3) has been addedCONTENTS114 ΛΑΖΑΡΟΥ ΤΟΥ (Lazarus' Song)115 ΛΑΛΑ Τ' ΑΗΔΟΝΙ (The Nightingale Sings)116 ΛΑΛΗΣΕ ΚΟΥΚΕ (Sing Cuckoo Bird)117 ΛΑΦΙΝΑ Η 1 (The Doe 1)118 ΛΑΦΙΝΑ Η 2 (The Doe 2)119 ΛΕΒΕΝΤΙΑ 1 (Valour 1)120 ΛΕΒΕΝΤΙΑ 2 (Valour 2)121 ΛΕΪΜΟΝΙΑ Η (The Lemon Tree)122 ΛΕΜΟΝΑΚΙ (Little Lemon)123 ΛΕΝΚΩ Η (Lenko)124 ΛΟΥΛΟΥΔΙ ΤΗΣ ΜΟΝΕΜΒΑΣΙΑΣ (Flower of Monemvasia)125 ΛΥΓΕΡΗ Η 1 (The Graceful Lass 1)126 ΛΥΓΕΡΗ Η 2 (The Graceful Lass 2)127 Μ' ΕΚΑΨΕΣ ΓΕΙΤΟΝΙΣΣΑ (Neighbor, You've Burned Me)128 ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΙΚΟΣ (Dance from Macedonia)129 ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΙΚΟΣ ΚΛΕΦΤΙΚΟΣ (Macedonian Kleftik Dance)
