Does anyone have or know where I can get a transposed part for A clarinet for the first clarinet part for Hoe Down from Rodeo (Copland)? I need this for a performance in a few weeks. I've played the original b-flat clarinet part and would like to do it on the A clarinet. It would be a little bit easier. thanks for your help.

It's really a very simple transposition that you should be able to do at sight. Play it in the clarinet key of F on the A clarinet. The patterns repeat so once you've got the fingerings down, it shouldn't be an issue.
The only exposed passage is four measures after #13. Hardly a big deal to write out those four measures if you need a bit of help.
I've never seen a transposed part. Once, the 2nd clarinetist wrote his own part out, but after a few rehearsals was comfortable enough to play it at sight from the original.
BTW -Copland rarely wrote for A clarinet, even though it would have made sense in a few works.

One other item -
You've probably noticed already, but just in case, there are two typos that should be corrected:
- Five measures after #10 the first eighth note should be an E (not a D)
- Four measures after #16 the second group of sixteenth notes should start with an F# (not an E).
