I have come across a listing of a sheet music arrangement for clarinet and piano of E. Satie's Trois Gymnopedies. The arranger is Leonard and the publisher is Masters. This is the first I've encountered this and a couple of searches here came up empty. Does anyone know this arrangement? I imagine the clarinet part must be very simple but it might make a sweet bon-bon.

The part is indeed very simple. I haven't put the clarinet part with piano, yet. I'm sure that's what really makes the piece.

interesting...i just recorded gnossiene no. 2 using 5 clarinet tracks on saturday. it had a pretty chilling sound, just right for the halloween season.
and pretty simple to play (which is good for me)...
for the bass notes, i just played them within the range on my clarinet, then used a computer program to drop the pitch an octave. i know, not very professional but it did fill out the overall sound nicely. now i just gotta add some scary wind blowing in the background...

There are several arrangements of these piano pieces for clarinet and piano; they are all basically the same. Yes, the clarinet part is what can be called simple, the piano part is not difficult, and they do make a nice bon-bon.
Another edition is in the new "Kalmen Opperman Reprtoire Collection; Volume 2." Published by Carl Fischer.

Is this in sharps or flats..the origninals should have the Bb clarinet playing in 3 and 4 sharps...I am talking about if you transcribe it from the same key as the piano version.

The Opperman version has:
No. 1 in 2 sharps for clarinet;
No. 2 in 2 flats for clarinet;
No. 3 in 2 sharps for clarinet.
That book also has them arranged for clarinet and guitar.
