- de Abreu, Zeqhuinha: Tico Tico.
I have arranged the version by Fernando Silveira a little bit
to produce a training version for solo clarinet and piano. The rhythm (piano part) has also been simplified.
You will find the original version for three clarinets on Oliver Seely's page.
The midi file contains the piano part only (no clarinet voice!).
The PDF for the solo clarinet is here
and the PDF for the piano part is here.
- Bach, J.S.: Contrapunctus 13 (PDF, zipped)
from "Die Kunst der Fuge" for soprano saxophone and baritone
saxophone. May also be played with other Bb and Eb instruments.
An alternative second voice for bass clarinet is
here. Note:
The "contrapunctus 13" has different numbers in different editions!
- Bach, J.S.: Menuet 2 (PDF, zipped). This
is a little simple menuet arranged by me for Bb soprano clarinet and bass
clarinet. For beginners! The original menuet is in Bb major resp. G minor.
- Bellini, Vincenzo: Concerto in Mib per oboe e archi
(MIDI only). This is the original version for oboe - no clarinet version so far!
The orchestra is replaced by a piano. I have also produced a pure
play-along version,
i.e. a version without the oboe voice.
- Cahuzac, Louis:
Fantaisie Variée sur un Vieil Air Champêtre.
Louis Cahuzac was the teacher for many leading clarinet players in France.
His works often use themes (folk songs) from the southern part of France.
This is for Bb clarinet and piano. Midi file only.

Emile Carrara was one of the leading accordion players in France. I have

and accordion. The file offered for download is the Midi version only.
Please contact me by mail if you are interested in the complete arrangement.
- Carulli, Benedetto: Trio C-Dur für zwei
Klarinetten und Fagott, opus 1, mov. I "Allegro moderato". This
nice and demanding piece has been written around 1850
for two C clarinets and bassoon. This version is for two Bb clarinets
and bassoon. Benedetto Carulli should not be confused with the more famous
composer Ferdinando Carulli specialized in classical guitar music.
- Carulli, Benedetto: Trio C-Dur für zwei
Klarinetten und Fagott, opus 1, mov. II "Andante sostenuto". See my
remarks for the first movement.
- Couperin, Francois: Duo G-Dur

- Haydn, Joseph: Divertimento 2, Adagio (Hob. V:2) .
This is an arrangement of one of the "Streichtrios" for clarinet trio (2 Bb soprano, one bass clarinet).
Some very high passages have been transposed down one octave. I have changed the original key of F to E flat
so that the original scores can be played by the clarinets. The first voice is for advanced
players. The two other voices require an intermediate level. The PDF score is here.

See my remarks for the first movement. The PDF score is here.

See my remarks for the first movement. The PDF score is here.
- Haydn, Joseph: Divertimento 10, Mov. 3 Moderato (Hob. V:10) . The
original is for two violins and violoncello. I have
arranged the piece for two Bb soprano clarinets and a Bb bass clarinet. I didn't touch the original key so that
this may be played also in a mixed (strings plus winds) setting. The PDF files (the three clarinet voices) in a
zip archive are here.
- Hurlstone, William: Ballade,
Mov. 1 (Moderato a piacere) from "Four Characteristic Pieces"
for Clarinet and Piano,
Midi file only. The pieces have been composed around 1900. This is my first raw version. I will prepare a second version showing
some dynamic variations.

two oboes and English horn. I have arranged a version for three soprano clarinets in Bb (or
two soprano clarinets and bass clarinet) contained in this
zip archive (PDF files).
- Lindley, R.: Piece de Salon (PDF, zipped, 1.5 MB!).
This is a duo for soprano clarinet (A or Bb) and bass clarinet.
As the original arrangement for cello and double bass is in D major
(which gives E major for Bb instruments) I have prepared for the fainthearted a
version in Eb major which gives F major for Bb instruments.
I tried the D/E major version also: this is playable for advanced amateurs!
The Midi file is on my download page for double bass.
- Milhaud, Darius: Pastorale for oboe,
clarinet and bassoon. This is a modern trio piece for wind intruments
from the well known French
composer Milhaud who lived from 1892-1974. The Bb-clarinet part is not very
complicated except for the fugue in the mid. Midi file only.
- Milhaud, Darius: Scaramouche.
Suite pour saxophone et
orchestre - réduction pour clarinette Si b et piano, mov. 3. This is the well known
third movement ("Brazileira"). Milhaud has prepared the saxophone
version himself
from the original two-pianos version. The clarinet version seems to be identical
to the saxophone version except for some octave transpositions. Midi file only.

Both versions contain PDF scores. The Midi file is in the first version.

-
Zelenka, Jan Dismas: Sonata I F-Dur für zwei Oboen,
Fagott und Basso Continuo mov. 1 "Adagio ma non troppo". Zelenka lived from 1679 to 1749.
I find that this is one of the nicest pieces for a double reed setting. Note that I didn't
sequence the piano/cembalo part. The trio sounds great without this part.
Midi file only. New

Zelenka, Jan Dismas: Sonata I F-Dur für zwei Oboen,
Fagott und Basso Continuo mov. 2 "Allegro". I did not sequence the cembalo
part in the basso continuo.

Hear me playing (MP3 medium quality)
I recorded this tune - the old jazz standard
"Softly as in morning sunrise" -
just for fun on one of my A clarinets. The bass and piano parts have been
arranged by me and played on a MIDI synthesizer. The clarinet part
is completely improvised.
And here is a sligthly modified version on my arrangement of the waltz
"Vent d'automne" by E.Carrara.
I have recorded the parts for piano, double
bass and accordion with my synthesizer. The clarinet is played live with no
modifications after the recording. You hear that it is never a good solution to
be the recording engineer and the musician at the same time.
