"The Working Clarinetist" is an excellent collection of annotated orchestral excerpts by Peter Hadcock, formerly clarinetist with the Boston Symphony.
Hadcock excerpts some of the most prominent clarinet parts from 31 orchestral compositions by Bartok, Beethoven, Bernstein, Borodin, Brahms, Copland, Kodaly, Mahler, Mendelssohn, Nielsen, Prokofiev, Rachmaninov, Ravel, Rimsky-korsakov, Shostakovich, Sibelius, Stravinsky, and Tchaikovsky.
He gives advice on what fingerings use, which parts are exposed, which passages will likely require considerable woodshedding, the tempos to expect from most conductors, and constantly calls attention to the context of the clarinet part in the overall scoring and the challenges to blend, tune and phrase well with the other instruments.
