Recital Ideas

Author: MG74359

Hi everyone,

I'm a sophomore in college, being a non-music major (I'm an English major with a minor in writing,) but my instructor wants me to do a recital my senior year. My question for all of you is if you know of any pieces of grade 3, specifically, that would make good recital pieces, without or without piano would be fine, and if YouTube links are available, I can use those to preview, so please include them.

Thank You all!
MG

Une Pensee Lointaine by E.S. Thornton Pub. Cundy Bettoney. Out of print, but available through clarinet public domain sites. It is exactly what you need...sounds hard, but lays very well for the instrument.

This a traditional 1880s cadenza, melody, theme/variations with a Presto flash at the end.

I for one am tired of eclectic stuff no member of the general public wants to hear.
