I play in couple of clarinet groups. The Clarinet and Sax society in Victoria Australia has a clarinet choir that meets once a month to play quartets. Their web site (www.clasax.org) has links to a few sources of wind music. One notable one is AWMP. This is Mark Walton who has done a lot of arrangements for woodwind groups. You can play a lot of the music on any combination of flute, oboe, clarinet, basson, sax ...
As well as playing with clasax, we also have a variable quartet at home. This consists of me (clt, Bb bass clt, tenor sax), my 18yo daughter (clt, alto sax, flute) our teacher ( clt, flute, and sometimes my bas clt), my 15 yo daughter (occasional member who plays viola), and my daughter's school friend (flute). We purchased a fair amount of the AWMP music. We ordered over the web, and they were also kind enough to send the third part transposed for the alto clef so we could use the viola.
Of the AWMP quartes, I have partiularly enjoyed playing "Bach goes to Town", a "Chattanooga CHoo Choo".
Hope you find lots of good music - and have as much fun as we do.
