I have several transcriptions I made several years ago, that I've mentioned here a couple of times, that I'm now willing to share. When I restarted clarinet in 2010 after 38 years off, one of my goals was to be able to play some things I'd admired for decades. And I knew I would be far more motivated to work on them than on clarinet "busy work". So for me, these take the place of Rose Etudes.
I have PDF's but they are all too big, so I have to post separate pages as PNGs. So there are a bunch.
1) Do You Know What it Means to Miss New Orleans... Pete Fountain 1990's.

I gleaned a lot from DYKWIM, and almost made some parts of it sound legit a few years ago- haven't worked it seriously since then. It remains my gold standard of how I aspire to sound. No, I don't think anyone will ever mistake me for Pete.
2) Let's Dance... Benny Goodman 1950's I think https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7HYVow1kHQ
I got LD in reasonable shape a few years ago, haven't polished in a while. No, I don't think anyone will mistake me for Benny, either.
3) Shine... Pete Fountain - only about a third done, I never found time to continue (I already got a lot out of the completed part) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipDtG8xV9_4&list=FLv_Pd564KyHrOg9y085fJgw&index=2
Good stuff, and different from the other 2.
