(I posted this in the student board, trying to get broad answers here).
I was given an assignment/performance - to do a two part, male duet with my friend, that incorporated significant harmony. Now, my first thoughts were things like "We can do it" and "Where did we go right" from the producers, or songs such as that, but apparently they're not harmonious enough. My friend and I would attempt a more operatic piece, but alas he is a bass and me a baritone at best. SO, does anyone know of any lower ranged, two part male duets? Oh and with a readily available score would be good (the teachers are evil regarding that). Thanks for any help!
You should check colony music they have so much music you could find somethin.

possibly "Dirty Rotten Number" from DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS
i cant think of too many other male duets...
I don't know if this would be one, but maybe I'll Cover You from Rent.
I'll Cover You will definitely be too high.

The perfect choice is Pretty Women from Sweeney Todd. The Judge is definitely a bass, and Sweeney does not go very high in the song. The sheet music should also be readily available
Agony goes up only to an E, I think.
Also: "It Would Have Been Wonderful" from A Little Night Music.

You could always transpose Lily's Eyes from The Secret Garden down a step and it would be perfect, as would the aforementioned Pretty Women.
you're nothing without me from City of Angels
The CIty of Angels ditty os too high for a bass
