solo and duet ideas

I'm just brainstorming for future recitals and was trying to get others input on repertoire. Does anybody know of any good solos or duets that are not that well known for the bass? They can be originally for bass or a reasonable transcription. Any difficulty is fine. Thanks.

This could take forever. Here's an interesting exercise for you: go to www.sheetmusicplus.com or www.jwpepper.com and type "double bass" in the search window. Hundreds of pieces will come up. Browse, find something that looks interesting and then come back here and ask if anyone knows the piece. There really is a lot of music written for the bass that nobody knows, but you have to search for it. Have fun!

Go to ASODB.com and download my freebee duet. I think you will like it and its FREE! The site is a little out dated but Mark is working on that.
