I have a student who would like to play a bass solo with his high school band. Any recommendations for a medium to hard piece?
thanks.

I'm looking around currently for one as well. One that I know is in print is Variations On A Theme By Robert Schuman. Another good choice, although it is out of print, is Darkwood (or Deepwood I forget which). If you can find that one somehow, either will work.

No specific solo recommendations, but your bass clarinetist should be able to play any Bb soprano solo with band acc. that you should happen to find.

About a year ago, I played bass cl on a band piece named "Hi-Hat" as that cymbal was used thru-out. I had some syncopation all thru it, and had some 24-32? measures of slow [dirty?] blues where some ad-libbing was possible. It was much fun for me, the rest of the band waited to see what I would do with it this time ! I posted on it then, and will check to see if it is retrievable via Hi Hat, perhaps as one word or hyphenated. I dont recall the composer, but it wasn't greatly difficult, ? high school level?, Don
Thanx, Mark, Don

Search as one word, HiHat. Your conductor-librarian may be able to find it in band literature, such as Southern Music , S A in TX. If not I'll look it up next Thu at comm band reh. and report composer/source, Fri. Don
Thanx, Mark, Don

Ballade for cl/pn by Bozza [concert band arr. is high school level] is delightfully French, flashy and casual-audience friendly---recommend. v/r Ken

Aaron Cassidy, Metallic Dust.
H.-J. Hespos, Harry´s Musike.
Everyone will be flabbergasted, including the perfromer.

Thanks! I'll check these out. Does any one happen to know of any recordings of these pieces?
