Are there any books with solos for clarinet that anyone would recommend? I`m looking for advanced pieces.

Thanks.

Just go to the director of your band, and ask. Or go to your nearest music store and ask for the music. I take clarinet lessons and my teacher reccomends books to me. This really isn`t that difficult.

Ah, but perhaps this would be a challenge if the original poster is not a student! It`s rare to find someone out of that category on this forum. So asking a band director may not be an option.

To the original poster: if you could slightly clarify what in particular you are looking for. I would be more than happy to suggest some books or even particular pieces based on what you are looking for. Were you looking for recital type pieces, or just a compilation of pieces that would be neat to play around at? FOr serious work, I would suggest Daniel Bonade`s collection of Fifteen Grand Solos. Very difficult collection, but for the advanced player it is certainly doable. For other types of music, you might want to go to www.luybenmusic.com. They have a great selection of music and something may catch your eye.

NB. I do not work for Luyben.

If the original poster is not a student, then they could just go to a music store. Not too hard. the site that dmitri recommended is a great site for music!

Demnitz is a very good book to play out of. I`m not sure of its full title, but it`s a good book. It has arpeggios and all kinds of sightreading music.
