Duet is the second album by vibraphone–piano duo Gary Burton and Chick Corea, recorded over three days in October 1978 and released by ECM Records in May of the following year.

Background
The title track, "La Fiesta", was originally recorded by Corea with his quintet for Sometime Ago – La Fiesta, the working title for Return to Forever (1972), which gave birth to the pioneering jazz fusion band of the same name.
