DVORAK'S HUMORESQUE 

Unaccompanied Clarinet Duet

​

Dvorak's Humoresque (op.101,no.7), is one of his most famous compositions and has been arranged many times for many combinations of instruments. This arrangement, like some others on this page, was originally written in 2000 as a contest piece for my middle school students in Albuquerque. But unlike the others, it is geared for players with differing skill levels. The first part (grade 3) requires a somewhat more experienced player than the second part (grade 2), which stays below the break, but still gets to play the melody in the middle section. Separate parts are included to do away with awkward page turns.
