The Old Castle (easy key)
The dreamlike quality of Moussorgsky's piece is captured in this setting for clarinet quartet. The bass clarinetist needs to be tolerant as their part is essentially a pedal tone throughout. This version has been transposed down from the original key of Bb minor to make it a little easier to manage for less experienced players.
