There are other fl-cl duets not yet mentioned. For example, I have
enjoyed working on and performing Eugene Bozza's _Trois Mouvements_
(Leduc, 1974). Another interesting work is Jean Cartan's _Sonatine pour
Flute et Clarinette_ (Heugel, 1931). (Although I've read the Jolivet duet
several times, it always left me unmoved.) There are also a couple of
duets I consider recreational: Robert Russell Bennett's _Suite for Flute
and Bb Clarinet_ (Warner Bros., 1973) and Roger Nixon's _Four Duos for
Flute or Oboe and Bb Clarinet_ (Theodore Presser, 1966).
