Superb

While not that technically challenging, I rate this piece as advanced because this piece is hard to play well musically, and can be really expressive. This edition is beautiful, and on nice tan paper, which is always a plus. The only thing that I would say is that it should...

Fantastic

Osborne's Rhapsody for clarinet solo is one wonderful piece of music. I would note that it was originally written for Bassoon, but the clarinet is even better, though it does not, I think, quite capture the "Eastern" sound that the bassoon excels in with this piece. It is not very...
