I'm not sure what denomination you are, but i'm a catholic choir director and GIA publications has a Bb and C instrument version of most of their hymnals. We use "Gather Comprehensive". The parts are very usabale as duets since each piece typcially has 3 parts... melody, harmony and descant. I honed by transposition into C by sight skills doing church work. There are over 800 hymns and contemporary Catholic pieces in the Gather Comp hymnal. Hymn tune index helps you match up the tune with the piece youre doing if the catholic lyrics arent the same as the protestant version. GIA's web site is www.giamusic.com Blake Washington, DC
