I've been messing around with these pieces lately...

Mozart Clarinet Concerto
Weber Concertos 1 and 2
Weber Concertino
Weber Grand Duo Concertant (can you tell I LOVE Weber?)
Premiere Rhapsodie** (working on right now)
Hindemith Sonata
Stravinsky Three Pieces for Clarinet Solo

A few of these I've played before, and am just practicing so i don't forget how to play them...

This year I only played Concerto no 3 (C Stamitz) and Introduction, theme and variations (F David, NOT Rossini). But for the holidays my teacher gave me lots of work.

Studies: 20 etudes faciles (Delécluse), 60 etudes book 1 (Costes), 12 etudes de rythme (Bitsch), 15 etudes (Bach), 40 etudes book 2 (Rose), 30 etudes (Klosé) and etudes carateristique (Klosé) + all scales major and minor

Repertoire: Concertino (CMv Weber), Sonate (F Poulenc), Sonatine (M Arnold), Sonatine (B Heiden), Concerto (L Kozeluch), Solo de concours (A Messager), Five bagatelles (G Finzi), Sonatine (B Martinu), Monolog (Y Stankovitsj) and Fantasia (F Alpaerts)

And then of course there are the pieces some of you already mentioned that I really want to play like Saint-Saëns, Lutoslawski, Stravinsky. But I'll have to find some free time first. So maybe I'll give these pieces as an answer when someone pops this question again next summer.

Well, I've had my clarinet for 1 week now, and I've got the first 16 measures of Bach Bouree, ala Jethro Tull. Plus a lot of other simple tunes.

This is fun stuff!
