Here's some recorder duet/trio sheet music I've made based on various rock/pop/punk songs. Most of them are not too hard to play – although there are some fast notes, they're in friendly keys which make the fingerings fairly easy.
Tips: Do "double tonguing" for the fast ¼ beat notes, by saying "tiddeltiddel" instead of "ti ti ti ti". Also learn and use the alternative B fingering when going to/from C. It makes some things much easier.
Although most of the music is designated for soprano and tenor, you can play them on 2 sopranos. It just won't sound as good and some of the notes will likely overlap (be the same note and thus get lost). You can also play alto parts on a tenor, but you will have to play some high notes.

And here's some of my own music. Some have more than the normal 7 notes – it can be fun to have notes that don't belong in the key. But if you want to avoid the harder notes, pick lower numbers.
