The Love for Three Oranges Suite, Op. 33bis

Prokofiev's Love for Three Oranges Suite, Op. 33bis — drawn from the opera of the same name — is a repertoire staple across all six of its movements, but the printed bass clarinet part hasn't always kept pace with how the instrument is actually taught and read today. This is a full re-engraving of the part in modern notation: treble clef throughout, using the French system, the notation most modern clarinetists are trained on and read most fluently, since it uses the same fingerings as a standard B♭ clarinet rather than requiring a separate transposition to learn.

• •Treble clef, French system — same fingerings as a standard B♭ clarinet, no separate transposition to learn
• •Rehearsal numbers match the 1971 Muzyka edition exactly, so it drops in cleanly alongside an existing set of parts
• •Cue notes included through long rests to help the player stay oriented during performance
• •Bigger print and more sensibly placed page turns than the original engraving
