There is a sopranino/soprano duet(w/Jeff Coffin) plus sopranino solo(Paul McCandless) on a tune call Big Country. It's on the Live at the Quick DVD.

wow doess the size differ that much or is that a soprillo?Those are twin Yani's, a soprano and a sopranino. A soprillo is again as small from the sopranino. I use the sopranino in the Star Wars bar song with my sax quartet. Usually my wife plays it because she gets a better sound due, I suspect, to her refined clarinet embouchure. Oh, and there is nary a squeek from that beautiful instrument.
