My piano partner gave me a piece he wants to read next time. It's the Andante in F by Mozart. It was arranged by Harry Bettoney and published by Cundy-Bettoney/Carl Fischer for clarinet and piano. I have searched this website and well as Carl Fisher. I'm trying to find out what piece this originally came from. Anyone know? It appears to be a middle movement of a sonata or concerto by the way it begins and ends.
Thanks

It's probably from the clarinet concerto in A, K622, but written for Bb clarinet, instead of A clarinet. Mozart only wrote 2 (I think) pieces for clarinet, and the middle movement of the concerto is an andante.

Are you sure it isn't the adagio in F K580a? If so, it was written I believe for four basset horns or three horns and a clarinet -- probably as a piece for Mozart's masonic lodge. I have it in an arrangement for Bflat clarinet and piano, but have transposed it for basset horn in F, where it seems to fit perfectly. Wonderful music, but harder than it looks. If indeed we are talking about an adagio rather than an andante, and you wish to know more, email me and I'll fill you in.

Never mind about the concerto. I was thinking it was an andante, but is in fact an adagio. It was early, and apparently I wasn't thinking.

Michael McC...The middle movement of K.622 is Adagio (not Andante).
Todd...If you could scan me the melody, I'd be happy to try and locate the original source for the work in question...GBK

There is an Adagio in F for 2 bassethorns and bassoon. It is marked KV 410 {440d, KV6, 484d} on the score. It is only 26 measures long. The bassethorns play an inverted canon and the bassoon plays an accompaniment in eighth notes. ¿Could this be the piece you are talking about¿

It is definitely an Andante in F, not an adagio. I don't think it was originally written for clarinet as the note range is quite limited. The highest note is G, a fifth above C5. I don't have a scanner so I can't send the music to you, GBK, but thanks for the offer.

There is a beautiful Adagio [by M] in "Clarinet Sessions" for 3 Bb's [in cl. C?, it could be for many combos], I believe we book-tracked it down to ?several? K's, will look it up again. Look in Brymer's large Repertoire !! Don
