Subj: [kl] Unaccompanied solo works
Date: Tue, 12 Jan 1999 18:20:27 -0500

Hello,
I am a clarinetist and college student. Because I'm not a
music major, I
have essentially no opportunity to play with an accompanist
(and due to
my academic schedule, no opportunity at this point to play
in an
ensemble). What I'm looking for is any music that is
written for
unaccompanied clarinet. Can anyone recommend anything, in
particular,
any works from before the 20th century? (I worked on
Stravinksy's Three
Pieces and found them appropriately challenging but in all
honestly and
in my humble opinion they weren't terribly enjoyable pieces
of music!)
I've recently studied Willson Osborne's Rhapsody. Does
anyone know of
any quality recordings of this work?
Any advice or suggestions will be appreciated!
(Also, thanks to those who responded a few weeks ago to my
inquiries
about the bagpipes.)
