The fourth movement of the sonata is an ABRSM Grade 8 piece. The second movent has previously been a Grade 6 piece. The other two movements, the first and third, I believe are ungraded. However, I would say the third technically is very easy but very dependent on emotions to make a good performance.
Yes, they do. It is the length of the instrument that determines the pitch differences. For example the bass clarinet sounds an octave lower than the B-flat clarinet; the shorter E-flat soprano clarinet sounds a fifth higher than the B-flat.

Three famous pieces for the clarinet include the Concerto by Mozart. Another would be the two sonatas by Johannes Brahms (a late romantic composer), I like them both so much I would count them together. The third piece I would count as a favorite is the Sonata by Paul Hindemith (a 20th century composer).
It was composed in 1921.
His two sonatas for clarinet op. 120 were composed in 1894
Grade 5 and onawards

"A Christmas Sonata" by Gary Paulsen is typically classified as a young adult novel, which may be more suitable for 8th grade and above readers due to its themes and writing style. It could be challenging for some 7th graders depending on their reading skills and comprehension.
