Repertoire for Clarinet doubling bass

Hi All,

Wondering if anyone knows of any repertoire where the clarinet doubles on bass. Looking for any sort of solo or chamber music.

I'm aware of Golijov's 'Dreams and Prayers...' but thats about it.

Thanks,

Jarrod

Andrew Brandt's catalog of wind quintet music lists a few pieces where the clarinet doubles bass clarinet.

D. Argento's "To be sung upon the water" is for soprano, clarinet doubling bass clarinet, and piano.

Concerto for Doubles by Ralph Hermann has movements for alto sax, bass clarinet and Bb clarinet. It was written for Al Gallodoro in a light classic style. The clarinet movement in particular calls for Al's beyond-impossible finger speed. He recorded it on "The Many Sides of Al Gallodoro" CD available at http://www.algallodoro.com/buy-music.html.

Bret Pimentel is a multi-woodwind doubler and has many entries on his site http://bretpimentel.com/.

And of course there's the Doublers board here, though it's rather inactive http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/list.html?f=17.
