Duets are a very beautiful way of singing a song as all you need to make the song interesting is the alto and the soprano. Two people singing in two exactly opposite pitches makes a unique blend of melody. And when two girls come together for a duet, it should not only sound good, but also be like a celebration of femininity.
Duets can be amazing to perform and to listen as long as the song chosen suits the singers. So when we think of female duets, there are some songs that are better than others because of their ease of singing and the mood they create.
