Bernstein Clarinet Sonata

Author: OboeAtHeart

I'm playing the Bernstein Sonata this year, first movement. So far I've found it's not all that difficult. Is it hard to put together with the piano part? Last year, I played the 4th mv. of the second Brahms, which was most definately insane, though quite enjoyable. Any reccomendations?

The Bernstein doesn't sound hard to put together.... I've heard it's pretty easy.

PS - for the sake of accuracy, the second Brahms sonata has only 3 movements. Do you mean the 4th movement of the first sonata or the 3rd movement of the second (since both are quite difficult)?

Maybe it's the fourth of the first.

I'm really not sure. There's a triplet section where you're jumping octaves a bit.. I've got the music hiding somewhere..
