hey could people please list all the works for clarinet written around the 'Classical' (with capital C) period/era?
I want to do a mixture of styles so i want to do a Classical piece for my next recital.
I've already played:
Mozart
Brahms Soanta 1
The Weber concerto's are below the standard for the recital apparently.
How soon after the Classical period was the brahms sonata no. 2 written?
I know Brahms is from the Romantic period.
Are there any other works?
Thanks

If Mozart's concerto is 1791, and he was IN (but moving on out of) the classical period then Brahms was 103 years later. Long after. Despite the use of the same forms, these composers are miles apart.
If you want "classical" clarinet, look at the Stamitz concertos.

How is Weber below what standard?
Of the three composers named, only one is a classicist, one is a German romanticist, and one is a German "neo" classicist.

Louis Spohr (1784-1859) composed at least two concertos, plus smaller works, for clarinet. He was considered to be a great musician in his time, during the 'Classical period'. Listen to Michael Collins and the Swedish Chamber Orchestra on Hyperion CD A67509 perform these very difficult works. Great stuff!

I suggest listening to Leister's "classical sonatas" album. (Camerata
B0009Y26M2)
The first work on this disc, a sonata by Bochsa, is an exquisite, stylistic piece. I plan to include this work next time i have to perform a recital. The sonata from Vanhal, also included on this disc, and whose concerto is mentioned in GBK's list, is another excellent recital work.
Leister's performance on this disc is sublime. His sound is soft and his phrasing is delicate. Beautiful legato playing. I have in the passed listened to this disc on the way to auditions to inspire me. Leister's playing has always been an inspiration to me.
Thanks

GBK,
Please excuse my ignorance (I am no expert), but I always understood that Telemann, Scarlatti, Handel, Molter and Vivaldi (from this list) belonged to the Baroque period, before the Classical era.
Is it just the works you have listed or are there different ways of classifying or something?
Any clarification greatly appreciated.

You are correct.
The Classical period of music is generally regarded to be about 60 years - from the mid to the end of the 18th century.
Dr Barrett's list included the very first works for the clarinet, and even though they are Baroque in nature, I listed them just for historical interest...GBK

I've been trying to make up a time-line chart showing clarinet works from the chaleameau, --focusing on composers and would enjoy seeing more of this information.
Thanks, all.
Bob

Bob,
I thought you were in the Chicago/Illinois area? You could just send Greg an email at Northern Illinois University, or perhaps GBK has permission to send it to you himself.
