 Anyone have good suggestions for works for clarinet, viola, and piano (or just clarinet and viola)? I know the usual suspects - Mozart, Bruch, etc... Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks a lot!

 If you are very good(University level) I say withouth a doubt Kleines konzert by Uhl(Alfred Uhl who lived I think at same time as Rudolf Jettel in Vienna wrote also 48 studies for clarinet in 2 books) it's in 3 movement's and feature a lot of variet styles. It take about 18 min in performance. You can see Sergio Bosi perform it on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0d3_r2FEaM

 If you have a violist good at sawing and sawing and sawing, you'll love the Mozart Kegelstadt Trio, Kv 498.
 
 Look for "498"  on Oliver's page:

 Carl Reinecke.  There's a pno/cl/vla version of the Trio in Bb for piano, clarinet and horn, opus 274, which we tried recently.  It was an elderly edition obtained by our pianist and I'm afraid I can't remember what..  It's a bit variable, but a nice change from the 'usual suspects'. Piano definitely has the hardest time!  A quick 'google' also indicates a trio for just this combination -  Trio in A or piano, clarinet and viola, opus 264 -  which may be worth trying too.
 
 Robert Schumann.  Marchenerzahlungen, Op. 132 for Clarinet, Viola and piano.  We haven't laid our hands on this yet.
 
 I'm also carrying around on a scruffy piece of paper a couple of suggestions that read "arrangments of fl/vla/pno - Ibert, Durufle".  Again, not seen them so the flute part may be an interesting challenge for clarinet :-)

 My vote goes for Robert Schumann. Marchenerzahlungen
 I did not like Reinecke.

 We've played the Mozart and Schumann pieces, and loved them both. I'm trying to find the Francaix. Looks like Schott publishes his works, but I can't seem to find this one available anywhere. Any ideas?

 The combination of clarinet, viola, and piano always intrigues me.  Seems odd.  Can someone explain the origin/story of this?  Is it Mozart who wrote the first piece?
