 Clarinet solo piece w/orch
Author: TM 
Date:   2015-05-26 20:06

Hello,

I am planning to play solo with an orchestra in educational concert for primary school students. Something like Artie Shaw would be great.

Can anyone give me some idea beside Shaw concert, something light, easy listening?

Thanks!
Tunman

How about the weber concertino? That is one of my personal favorites.

I played Weber Concertino before. And I've thought of Carnival but a bit too heavy for morning concert... Thanks ClarinetRobt and Alex K. !

Or any website you know that I can order transcription for clarinet and orchestra?

Something popular piece like Piazzolla could be great! Thanks!

A wonderful and fun piece available for Clarinet and Orchestra (also now for Wind Ensemble too) is "Viktor's Tale" by John Williams from the film "The Terminal."

Immer Kleiner may be available in a version for clarinet and orchestra. Kids love it.

Thanks Ken, I don't know this piece. Very nice, I will order it.

Before I am thinking Bruch Double Concerto but can't find orchestra parts to order.

So you think Jeanjean's Carnival of Venice is too heavy but the Bruch Double Concerto is OK?

Alrighty then...

TM:
I'm embarrassed by not suggesting "Viktor's Tale" since I'm playing it with a community group this summer in Texas. It really is a terrific piece. Kinda has all of the 'fun' for an audience: a lot of flashy technique (but still playable) for the wow factor, fairly short so no one will get bored and a cool little cadenza for the cherry on top on the 'solo' sundae.

Rmk54: I like Jeanjean piece but just too heavy for myself as it is morning concert, which I am sorry forgot to mention.

I will go to order couple pieces you all mentioned above and decide later. Hope the budget is okay!

Thanks again!
