How about "Clarinetango" by Roberto Pansera, which he wrote for Giora Feidman? It may be heard on the CD of the same name, by Feidman, and the transcription may be found in the tunebook, "Magic of the Klezmer", which is also the name of another Feidman recording that does NOT contain this tune, so be sure you are buying the book, not the CD.
This is an Argentine tango, which has a smoother, less choppy rhythm than the European tangos like "Jalousie" or the "Habanera" by Bizet. Those two and a number of other European tangos may be found in "A Little Couple-Dancemusik" by Peter Barnes, a Boston - based folk musician.
All of these are in concert pitch, so if you are playing with an accompanist, or just want to sound like the recordings, you will have to transpose (unless you want to play it on a "C").
Giora Feidman's stuff is available from Tara Publications, http://www.jewishmusic.com
Peter Barnes' stuff is available from him at a very long and complicated web address which I will post later.
