Looking for a couple of pieces for alto or alto/tenor duet

I’ve been working on the Mozart trombone concerto initially just to get my chops ready to play a couple of symphony orchestra concerts on alto later this year) and thought it was going well enough that I might play two or three movements in a group recital.

I‘m looking for another couple of pieces for alto, or alto/tenor duets. Ideally something which is not a total chop killer, I‘m open to duets written for other instrumentation e.g. cello/viola

"a Christian Song" by Jan Sandström is something that Hakan Bjorkman usually plays on alto. But it's with piano. Not too difficult, very pretty. Probably could adapt the piano part to be for cello, because it's very basic.
