A splendid collection of 18 compositions featuring the Clarinet by the incomparable and masterful Mozart. It was a fortunate coincidence that the Clarinet had just been perfected when the immensely prolific Mozart was at his most active since he wasted no time in establishing its place in orchestral chamber and solo repertoire. However there is no single work by Mozart for Clarinet and Piano hence this book is intended to present the range of styles and musical media that Mozart covered in a format which is convenient for performance. The book is progressive and the standard ranges from the near beginner to advanced recital repertoire hence the difficulty rating - itcan be bought at this stage and worked through slowly as the Clarinettist learns.
