Need an Easy but Good Sounding Duet

I need a good sounding but realatively easy to play duet for Bb soprano and bass clarinets. I especially need some excerpts that let both horns be heard with great tone, but that don't require finger burning expertise. Here is the list of available books that I have. If someone knows of a good set of music excerpts from these books, this will give me a chance to study them ahead of time.

Langenus 1,2,3
Rubank Advanced 1,2
Artistic Studies (Hite's Editions) Books 1,2,3
Melodious and Progressive Studies (Hite's Editions) Books 1,2
Klose' Complete, as edited by Bellison
Foundation Studies (Hite's Edition) (i.e. Baermann III)
Seven Grand Concert Duets (Hite's Edition)

The bass clarinetist is a young teenager who is just starting formal lessons on a pro grade wood bass clarinet and I'm an adult novice with a pro grade wood clarinet.

The practice time will be minimal, almost pure sight reading for the bass clarinetist, but the audience will be small, forgiving, and captive (i.e. playing for our families at home).

Thanks in advance.
