    Euphonium-trombone sacred duets

    Can anyone suggest resources for or books with hymn duets for TC-euphonium and trombone? And if unavailable, could I use trumpet-trombone duet repertoire?

    You could use trumpet-trombone duets. Trombone duets are no problem at all. A few of the duets written for trumpets might have low-range harmony that won't sound good an octave lower, but for the most part they will be fine.

    One quick resource (also useful for solos) is the hymn descant books listed below. Each is presented with melody and a descant for many common hymns. I have played some of these as duets with good results:
