Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knows of music for solo clarinet, without accompaniment.

Thanks in advance,

Adrianna

From just a couple of days ago:

There's a whole list right there. You don't specify what you're looking for though, easy, hard, contemporary, ....

I'm assuming you didn't check the composition data base before asking the question.

Here are a few hundred to start with:

Thanks for all your help, I did not realize there were so many resources out there. I have been reading a couple of books myself, that list various solo works, but it is so hard to tell if it is a great piece just from that. Anyways, I guess I should be a bit more specific. I am entering first year universtiy and I was interested in learning some music that did not require any accompaniment. I personally prefer more classical or romantic styles of music, not such a huge fan of the modern music, but I am open to suggestions. Thanks

You could start with the Osborne Rhapsody. Not terribly classical, but not that far out either.

If you're dead set on the classical period as opposed to contemporary/modern, you could always peddle back to the baroque and play the Bach violin partitas.

Debussy Syrinx arranged by Galper is a very good transcription of an impressionistic solo flute work.

Sydney Forrest did an arrangement of the Telemann Fantasies. It's published by Southern Music.

Is it this one?

That is an illegal link. Those clowns copied his work and deleted the Mharva Copywrite notice at the bottom of the page.

It's the same as if you posted a link to a song on Napster to download for free when it was not supposed to be shared.

Galper's widow is the one who looses in that.

Any other pieces by him up on the site? (woodwind.org)


His Son wasn't aware of them and had asked me to write the other site to take it down.

No, that's it. He gave that to me quite some time back. The copyright is still in dispute, which is why it doesn't have a permanent link.

I'm wondering if any of the pieces that he published under Mharva are around anymore? He did several, maybe 7 besides the Syrinx.

Thanks for the warning David. I've edited my post and removed the link.

Since the original version for flute is also freely downloadable for editing and transposing, there's no justification whatsoever for them to steal somebody else's hard work.

To their credit, the site has already removed the pdf file.

You might really enjoy the Five Pieces for Solo Clarinet by Gordon Jacob, published by Oxford University Press. The pieces are all in different styles, a preamble, a waltz, a Homage to JSB (not real difficult, it sounds like something Bach would have written), a slow soliloquy, and a Scherzo and Trio, fairly demanding and the hardest of the five.

I second the suggestion of the Jacob pieces. I find the scherzo impossible, however.

Is this link okay to use? My professor wants me to get this piece, but I haven't been able to find Galper's arrangement anywhere else.

Yes, it is fine to use. Abe, my good and highly missed friend, gave me that to share.
