There's nothing more fun for me than to load midi of a clarinet chamber masterpiece onto my software, transpose the clarinet part up 2 steps, mute the clarinet track, and playing along with the playback.
I like chamber pieces because they're much longer and much more prominent for the clarinetist than orchestral excerpts, but usually sight readable and takes much less work to play than solo concertos.
I'd love to find my way into a chamber group with other students of my age and caliber. In fact, a local community conservatory has a chamber music program open to all by audition with players grouped by caliber, and reasonably priced including coacing from a falcuty member and maybe recital oppurtunties. Though, I think it's a little past registration time for the spring semester, should I look into it?

Definitely. They may let you sit in on a few WITHOUT registering if you express enough interest in it. Just keep in mind you won't get credit. The reason they may let you do that is because it'll allow them a larger selection of music to choose from (more variety). Take a look into it. Wouldn't hurt.
