Anne,

I am by any means NOT an expert but I do have some suggestions. For you I
would suggest these as a basic core from which to build. I will TRY to put
the more "technically" difficult ones at the end:

Osbourne - Rhapsody
Brahms - Sonata No. 1 and No. 2
Saint Saens - Sonata
Poulenc - Sonata
Weber - Concerti No. 1 and No. 2
Rossini - Theme and Variations
Mozart - Concerto
Spohr - Concerti No. 1 and No. 2
Stravinsky - Three Pieces for Solo Clarinet
Persichetti - Parable for Solo Clarinet
Copland - Concerto
Neilsen - Concerto

...if you get a chance you may try to get these together too. . .

Brahms, Mozart and Weber Quintets
Neilsen WoodWind Quintet
Bartok Contrasts
Stravinsky Soldiers Tale
Francaix Concerto
Verdi/Bassi Rigoletto

ahhh....this list brings back good memories of college. Thanks for asking.
I hope this list helps you. I would recommend starting at the top if
you're not sure of your technical abilities. The Neilsen, in particular, is
a real monster (so is the Francaix for that matter.)
