Dear colleagues,=20

I am planning to run one experiment on breathing habits, focused on
respiratory endurance and strategies for putting breath pauses in long
continuous phrases.
For such experiment, I need to choose some well known pieces/excerpts that
represent a performance challenge, even for professional players.=20
By now I would think about using (parts of) :=20
CLARINET
-Schubert's Unfinished Symphony, 2nd movement solo
-Mozart's concert, first movement
-Ravel's Bolero solo
??
??

SAXOPHONE
-Ravel's Bolero solo
-Debussy's Rapsodie
-Villa-Lobos Fantasie
??
??

I would very much appreciate if you could provide me suggestions for other
works, advice, oppinions, etc.=20

PLEASE SEND ME MAIL PRIVATELY.

Thanks a lot and the best regards,

Leonardo Fuks
