Hi everybody, i'm a new forum's member. I'm from Brazil, so sorry for my english. :/
I need make two recitals (both 50mins at least) and i am looking for a good program.
For the first recital (just using Bb clarinet):
Lúdica I for clarinet solo - Ronaldo Miranda (Brazilian composer) (4mins)
Poulenc's sonata - (20mins)
Clarinet Trio - Beethoven (20mins)
And other recital (1-2 years later and using A clarinet too) playing:
Hommage Manuel de Falla - Bela Kovacs (3mins?)
Fantasy on themes from Rigoletto by G. Verdi. Luigi Bassi (10mins)
Sonata n° 2 op. 120 - Brahms (20mins)
Theme with Variations - Jean Françaix (10mins)
What do you think? I need suggestions!

Like your first line up, I always liked the idea of including a number that used a few more musicians. There's nothing better to pump up the number of audience members than the friends and family of your other ensemble members! How about the Daweswood Suite by Rick Sowash?

In some concerts the other players alone will pump up the number of audience members significantly while they are not playing

I think your programs are very good. The Brahms Sonate is longer than 20 minutes though and I suspect the Verdi is a bit longer as well. I think the Poulenc is a bit shorter as well but the Bethoven may be a few minutes longer depending on the repeats so it's a wash. My only suggestion would be to do the Brahms Trio in place of the Sonata and Franciax but they are good the way they are. You could replace any of the pieces with something else, it would not make the programs better, only different. ESP eddiesclarinet.com

I want play at least 3 pieces in each recital. The Brahms Trio is 35mins, so if i play the Trio, i have only 15mins for others pieces :/

The Brahms' Trio is the most beautiful of the clarinet repertoire. It's a small sacrifice to pick two short pieces to go along with that.

I was watching the Karl Leister's video playing the Brahms's Trio, and its 25mins, not 35mins.
If the Trio is 25mins, i can play it in place of Brahms's Sonata and the Hommage Manuel de Falla.
Program:
Fantasy on themes from Rigoletto by G. Verdi. Luigi Bassi (+/- 10mins)
Brahms Trio (25mins)
Theme with Variations - Jean Françaix (10mins)
And maybe other piece for clarinet solo (2-3mins)
The recital is AT LEAST 50mins, but can be 1 hour.
