BFlat sheetmusic written for clarinet or trumpet?
Also anyone have a transcription of 'Love Me' by Leiber & Stoller?? :?:

Probably trumpet, I am not sure how low it goes, but clarinet goes down to the E below your low Bb on sax, so you will likely find yourself running out of notes if you play clarinet music on sax. There is a wealth of tenor sax music available though, not least the Bb fake/real books which have hundreds of 'standards' if that's what you are after.

If you're talking about general sheet music rather than parts of an arrangement, the clarinet and trumpet versions are generally the same. Even though the Bb clarinet goes down to E below the staff (D concert) and the Bb trumpet goes down to F# below the staff (E concert), most parts don't go below Bb below the staff. If they do, transpose up an octave and practice your high notes. :)
