Looking for repertoire for Clarinet and Tenor Voice (with or without piano), particularly by Jewish composers.
I know about Meyerbeer's Hirtenlied.. other suggestions, please?

The third act from Tosca is stunning. I don't know if there is an arrangement anywhere though.
Chris.

Nothing modern specifically for this combination? I thought given the spectacular results in operas (as noted above!), composers might have made more use of it in a chamber music configuration. Oh well..

Try the aria from Act III of Verdi's The Force Of Destiny, "La vita e inferno". Also the song cycle "To Be Sung Upon The Water" by Dominic Argento for high voice (soprano or tenor), clarinet, and piano. If I remember right, some portions call for bass clarinet.

The Argento is meant for the tenor voice. It does require bass clarinet in a few of the movements.
