Looking for short pieces for Clarinet and Violin (with or w/o Piano). I will probably need it for our school district's annual outdoor music festival. Preferably around 5-10 minutes. And if possible, for Bb clarinet, not A, since I don't have one. Or else Bartok's Contrasts would be cool.
So far I have found Aram Khachaturian's Trio for Clarinet, Violin and Piano and Darius Milhaud's Suite for violin, clarinet and piano (transposing it from C clarinet to Bb for this piece isn't that bad).
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Ray, you could do some of the movements of Stravinsky's arrangement of his Soldier's Tale (cl, vln, pno).
A great arrangement I did recently was Lewon Atowmjan's arrangement of Shostakovich's Five Pieces for 2 violins and piano. I played one of the violin parts on C clarinet.
Another crowd-pleaser is Srul Irving Glick's The Klezmer's Wedding (cl, vln, pno).
For duos with vln, many duos with flute work well (the vln plays the flute part). One of my favourites is the Chorus #2 by Villa-Lobos (albeit on A cl). Others fl (vln)/cl duos are by Stamitz, GF Fuchs and G Kummer.
