How to Play Violin Duet Music

Learning the violin might seem to be a daunting task for children who aspire to be good violinists.  It takes practice and dedication to play alone but requires teamwork and cooperation in playing violin duet music.  In as much as it takes ample time to practice and improve the techniques in playing the violin, there are simple ways in learning how to play violin duet music. 
First, imagine that each violin is a part of a greater group.  Duets occur when one plays a melody and the other one plays the harmony or the rhythm .  There are even instances when both are playing melodies which mean that the other one plays a counter melody.  
Second, players should understand that the melody should be played clearly and with intensity while the harmony should  serve as a support and not overshadow the melody.  
Third, performing with others require that you have to be conscious of your rhythm and intonation with that of your partner. Practicing alone requires that fingering technique should be refined, but practicing with another requires more than that.
