From Thurston book 3, this is etude number 14: after Kodaly's "Dances of Galanta."
Hello, double-tonguing! This Kodaly piece is full of clarinet solos, so it didn't exactly take a lot of work for Thurston to just piece them all together for this etude. Some of the transitions are less than inspired, but I suppose if he spent more time doodling around making a perfect transition, the etude would be much longer.

About the etude project:
I've been challenging myself to practice a different etude every day and prepare it to the best of my ability in one day. This has been very helpful, but I wanted to add an additional element of pressure/nervousness. So I started recording them to post here.
It's not a real performance- I usually AM playing with a metronome, and I usually record these in a couple of takes and put them together later. I'll try to do them in a single take when possible, but usually I'll break them up.
