contrabass clarinet solos

I was looking for a couple of contrabass/ contra-alto pieces and came up with nada.

They are:

Ombra by Franco Donatoni
Anubis Nout by Gerard Grisey
interference by Richard Barrett
Triple Concerto (C. Bs, cb) by Donald Martino

If you have other suggestions I'd also appreciate them!

Terje Lerstad http://home.gethome.no/terje_bjorn.lerstad/index.html is a contra specialist who has written many solos.

The Contrabass site http://www.contrabass.com/ and its bulletin board http://www.contrabass.com/pages/list.html are a good place to find out more.

I commissioned about ten pieces (some solo, some ensemble) last December. Once I have time, probably over the summer, I'll put the replayable ones (that don't require specialized equipment) into a collection (the one the composers want me to, anyways). Until then, if you contact me offline, I can probably check with the composers and see about getting you a couple of them.

Check Alfred Reed. He made at least two pieces: Afro and Scherzo Fantastique. The latter can be heard on Youtube.
I have also here Edward Solomon's Gypsie Song.

All the above are for Eb or Bb contrabass clarinet and piano.
