Another delightful duet I discovered (sorry for the alliteration) is by
Michael Balfe (of BOHEMIAN GIRL fame). It's called "Trust Her Not", and
has a very Victorian parlour duet feel to it - it also is VERY easy to
learn, and provides a lot of scope for hamming it up.

Another, in a more serious vein, is "Restless River" by Edward German -
also his "Love is meant to make us glad".

And there's "The Second Minuet" by Maurice Besly - another Victorian
parlour gem about "Grand-papa and Grand-mama dancing the second minuet".
