Can anybody please tell me where can I find or buy lefevre clarinet method, I am specially interested in the sonatas (6,7, 9,11 and the three op.12) and I believe they are printed in this method but I cannot find it anywhere.
Thanks

Luyben Music shows the method in stock on their website -- sold as three separate volumes. A phone call would verify whether they actually have it and, if so, which volume contains the sonatas you're looking for. Another source that will probably have them or, at least be able to get them for you if they are available anywhere, is Eble Music in Iowa.
Best regards,

If you want to perform the sonatas, check to make sure the book includes the piano part. The Lazarus method part 3, for example, includes the solo parts for a number of operatic theme-and-variations finger-wigglers, but to perform them you need to get the piano parts.

Ken,
There are no piano parts for these sonatas in the method. What was provided in the method is the solo line plus a bass line which was probably intended for cello as there are a few instances of double stopping.
Oxford University Press publish two volumes of sonatas, whether or not they have the one the OP is looking for I'm not sure and don't have the music to hand.

I have the Lefevre Method for clarinet Vol.III...it inclludes all the Sonatas I guess you're looking for.
It's edited by Giampieri and include Sonatas I-XII as duos with a second clarinet part.
It's published by Ricordi distributed by Hal Leonard in the U.S.
Check out Halleonard. com it lists the Methods and other stuff by Lefevre.

Thank you for all your ideas, I am going to order it, I guess my next problem will be to get the piano parts, for the I to V sonatas I got it separately published but for the next ones I am not sure where to get them, I have the same problem with the solos in BaermannĀ“s or Lazarus method.

There are indeed realized piano accompaniments for these sonatas, but in their original form they are published with just the clarinet part and bass line.
The intention would be for a keyboard player who knew how to the realize the part using figured bass, as in the Baroque era.
These sonatas are a carry-over from this practice but for the then "modern" clarinet.

Well, I tried the hal leonard and the ricordi web site and I have the same problem with both , the imported is restricted to America and I want it in Europe so either I paid more than 40 dolars only for shiping or I forget about it, I guess I will go for the second option.
Thank you all.

Sheetmusicplus.com has many Lefevre items listed with regular shipping rates.
Why don't you try Van Cott information service...I think I got mine from him.
You might look at his site anyway...he's got a huge inventory of clarinet music.
