What they found was that singers stayed more on tune with the pitch written in the musical score when singing solo, versus singing with a partner. And when one partner veered off pitch, the other singer followed her, perhaps to compensate for the error — meaning even though they weren't singing the pitch as written, the resulting duet was more harmonious.
他们发现,相比于和搭档合唱,歌手独唱时的音调与乐谱上的音调更为一致。当搭档音调偏离时,另一名歌手也会跟着她偏离,也许是为了弥补错误——也就是说,即使她们演唱的音调与乐谱上的有出入,但同时出错的演唱效果却更加和谐。

基本释义
A duet is a piece of music sung or played by two people.
n. 二重奏;二重唱
单词duet里的du部分,来源于拉丁语duo,表示“二,两,双”。所以,在英语里包含du单词,多与此相关:
dual adj. 双的;双重的
duel n.(二人)决斗
duplicate adj. 复制的;二重的
duplex adj. 二倍的,双重的;复式的
twosome: A twosome is a group of two people.(两人一组)
