Instructions for B-flat Contra-bass Clarinet auditions You may (but are not required to) audition on both Bb contra-bass clarinet and other instruments such as Bb clarinet or bass clarinet. If you also wish to record scales or a piece of your choosing, feel free, but it is not necessary. If one excerpt is too difficult, leave it out. We want to hear you at your best. For the Bb contra-bass clarinet part of your audition, there are two excerpts, both from Aces by Robert W. Smith. The first excerpt is slow (marked Powerful). Stop at measure /17/. The second is fast (With Intensity).
