Delightful indeed! And a well balanced instrument.

Nice melody.

If you get that score, please share if possible.

 

A quick google gives the melody and the chord progression that one can play over in the meantime:

Most versions have dotted quavers, and it's usually played as a rather jaunty hornpipe or English reel.  However this slower and smoother version is rather lovely.

 

It's taken from Corelli's Op2 trio sonata, and is also known as Corelli's Gavot

[mChavez]

Here's two versions, but I don't think a duet 'tina will be enough here.

Might be a good time to buy a footbass.
