Hi
i was wondering what are standard pieces for the first year students at american colleges. I have just about finished my first year of study and was wondering what every one else was playing or did play.
thanks

right now I am playing the Mozart concert and the Weber piece. They are both awesome!! If you haven't played either I reccommend them! Where do you go to school? What pieces did you play?

australia! that is awesome..I am in New jersey in the U.S. Try to get a hold of a copy of Mozart's K.622 Mozart's concerto for clarinet. It is a great piece! If you like the Weber then you will love this one! Good luck!

As a freshman i didn't do much solo work... mostly pedagogy (for teaching) and etudes. Though i did perform the Poulenc Sonata.
This year, so far, i'm working on the Rozsa Sonatina, Rossini Intro, Theme & Var., Brahms 2nd Sonata, Weber Grand Duo Concertante, and the Mozart Concerto (discussing various interpretations). As well as taking sax and flute lessons an hour a week. On top of teaching sax and clarinet three evenings. And Youth Symphony on Sundays. <sheesh, no wonder i hardly have time for much else>

Hi! I'm a freshman at Converse College (Spartanburg, SC) right now. We've been in classes for almost two months, and I am working on Saint-Saens "Sonate" and a basset horn concerto by Rolla. Over the summer, I worked on Three Pieces by Stravinsky and Weber Concertino.
