Tartini Concertino is really lovely and that's around grade 6. Have a look at the syllabus for grade 5 and 6, that will give you some suggestions, most on there are ok.

Weber Grand Duo, Horovitz Sonatina, Debussy Premiere Rhapsody, Copland Clarinet Concerto, Mozart Concerto and Quintet, and Brahms F Minor. At grade 6 level, I like Tartini Concertino, Finzi 5 Bagatelles, Bliss Pastoral, Saint-Seans Sonata movement 2 and 3, Prelude from Victoria Kitchen Garden Suite, Rae Latin Jive and a few others in that book, and a few in Weston 50 Classical Studies. Don't like the Chris Allen I must say.

At the moment - playing the Saint-Saens sonata, Finzi Five Bagatelles and the Weber Grand Duo Concertant, with Chris Allen 2 for Quick Study practice. Anyone would think I was working towards DipABRSM . Also bashing through the Hurlstone Four Characteristic Pieces, and throwing around a few ideas for Woodford Green. I'm not sure that I can better Saxy's suggestions for Grade 6-ish repertoire.

Not sure this is relevant, but I hate those blasted Finzi Bagatelles. They might be great for clarinet players, but boy oh boy the piano parts are dreadful. Hey ho.

I think i will get the Victorian Kitchen Garden Suite and the Tartini Concertino as both of those seem popular amongst people, and are on the list
