My friend and I want to start a trad. band, and I was wondering if anyone knew of any "dueling" tunes that could be played on or adapted to be played on clarinet.

Do you mean both halves of the "duel" on the clarinet??

I've seen several fiddle pieces which might be suitable. There is a wicked piece a group from Prince Edward Island (Barachois), which is an argument between an old man and an old woman. There are a variety of instruments which play in the piece, which (I think) is Acadian in origin. They even include the Sousa Phone? in it! Both blown and Rapped!

wonder!

Yeah, both on clarinet. We may get some other instruments as time goes on, but we still want to sort of just get something together to start with. My friend and I are both pretty good, not to sound egotistical, so difficulty is not really an issue. . .
