2 Concerto Choices

Author: bflatclarinetist

For my first time I would like to participate in a woodwind concerto competition at a music festival (possibly a sonata competition as well but anyway). I can't just play 1 movement from a concerto, I have to play atleast 2 movements or the whole concerto. At my level there aren't many good concertos. So these are my choices:

-Rimsky-Korsakov Concerto
-Stamitz Concerto no. 3

Mozart is out because everyone's gonna play that one for sure and judges will be able to pick a mistake out easily if happens so. I'm not expecting to win personally but I just think maybe there's some hope for atleast being a finalist. Should I just wait until next year when I become a greater player so I have more options or enter the sonata competition because there's more sonatas at my level than concertos (right now)?

Thanks!
