Ok..

Name some Unaccompanied Clarinet Concerto written for A Clarinet by a composer that last names starts with an S..

I automatically thought of Stravinsky's 3 pieces.. but it's not. It's not Stamitz, or Spohr.

One of my friends Immed me with this question, and i'm going nuts trying to find it..

Help !!!

Offhand, I can't think of any works for solo clarinet titled "concerto" except one by Bucchi. The closest I can come is the "Capriccio" by Sutermeister. It's for A clarinet and pretty much standard repertoire. Is that possibly what you're trying to think of?

Best regards,

Perhaps the composer is listed in an encyclopedia?

Maybe poke around the Composition database: http://www.woodwind.org/Databases/Composers/Performers/index1.html

In an old catalog I found a Concerto by Sutermeister but it was listed under Clarinet and Piano and doesn't say whether its for A clarinet. No publisher was given. Could this be what you are looking for?

Elmo,

Sutermeister did write a clarinet concerto. What you saw in the catalog was probably the piano reduction. It was published by Schott and appears still to be in print. It is, however, not the same piece as his better-known Capriccio.

Best regards,

Unaccompanied? Try Szervanszky, Schocker, Szokolay, Siegmeister, all of whom write/wrote lots of wind music. Kaiia Sarhiaao, avant garde composer, is a possibility. Stockhausen wrote a bunch of clarinet music.

Unaccompanied concerto? - unlikely. Sonata?

Siegmeister and Artie Shaw both wrote accompanied concertos...
