Fellow clarinetist! I'm actually hoping to learn more about clarinet solos, too. I've already posted my one and only clarinet piece that I love!
I hope you get to a proper computer soon so you can share some of your favorites.

I am now reduced to Googling "Clarinet sonata youtube" and searching through the results for any I adore. So far, nothing has stood out for me, not even the 2nd and 3rd movements of the Brahms Sonata No. 2. But I'll post as soon as I find one!
In the meantime, here's a famous clarinet piece that has a sweet, slow feeling...but not much of the strength that I like in the Brahms Sonata No. 2, first movement:
Mozart Clarinet Concerto part 2
Martin Fröst - Clarinet
And since I like Copland, here's his Clarinet Concerto, which sounds like a hazy early morning, right before sunrise, when the cool blue of night lingers on in tranquility for a few more moments before that first ray of sunlight streaks across from the east and the livelier, jaunty day arrives, and eventually turns into sparkling chaos:

Jose Franch-Ballester - Clarinet
