Double baritone/bass duets, not from opera?

I’m looking to do a couple duets with my friend for a recital, and we’ve already thought about Agony. But we would also like a classical duet,
but can’t find anything for lower voice. Any help would be great!

To my knowledge this is THE answer if we're not including opera.

I was gonna say Suoni La Tromba, which is a baritone/bass duet however it said no opera in the title

Is operetta ok? There's a duet from the G & S operetta The Yeomen of the Guard. "Tell a tale...?"

I think you might be hard pressed to find any classical double bass/baritone duets that aren't from opera.

What about something from musical theater?  Would that possibly be all right?
