I second the previous suggestions of the Weber Concertino, and if you feel
up to it, the Mozart Rondo (which, I feel to be more challenging both in
technicality and musicality). If you REALLY feel up to it, then I second
the Rossini as well, but I didn't know it had been arranged for band
accomp yet.

(I have the Neidich recording of the Rossini...man, it just blows my
mind.)

Also, an option to consider, is to play a duet with an equally
talented/experienced (or moreso) clarinetist. Perhaps your private
instructor might oblige you. There are two pieces that come to mind that
are written for clarinet duet and band, the first being Perpetual Motion,
but the composer has slipped my mind at the moment. As slipperier,
however is a piece called Il Convegno by A. Poncielli. Both are good
works that should be considered if the duet option is open to you.

(As always, the above is simply my stated opinion, and not neccessarily
those of NMSU, the NMSU music department, clarinet studio, or professor.
Isn't that right, Dr. Borchert? ^_^ )
