hi, I was wondering if anyone knows of any pieces that are written for, or even arranged for clarinet and trumpet.

I've done duets with myu middle son for recitals. Since most trumpets are Bb instruments, no transposing is necessary. Check the duet books and have the trumpet take whichever part is more comfortable for them.

Using different types of mutes on the trumpet can make for some very pleasing duets.

Actually you can take just about any treble clef duet book for two like instrumnets and split between clarinet and trumpet. The exception is flute books as they may go way too high for either of you so you may end up transposing down an octave a lot. Trumpet, sax, and oboe books work extremely well. Clarinet books may go a note or two too low or high for the trumpet but it's usually not too hard to transpose a note or two.
