Subj: Gershwin's 3 Piano Preludes for Clarinet
Date: Wed, 29 Sep 1993 19:13:11 -0400

Does anyone out there know if there has ever been an arrangement of the 3
Preludes for Piano Solo by George Gershwin for Clarinet and Piano. Richard
Stolzman just recorded them on the "Concerto" series for RCA in an
arrangement by Don Sebesky for Clarinet and Orchestra. I contatcted him
through his agent and was told that there is a legal agreement that
restricts the arrangement from performance by anyone OTHER than Mr.
Stolzman for 1 year.

I am performing a recital at the Rolling Meadows Library (IL) on February
6, 1994 and would like to include it on my program.

Incidentally, if anyone is in the area you are cordially invited to the
concert. It will be at the Rolling Meadows library at 2:00 P.M. on
February 6th and will include the Weber Grand Duo, the Poulenc Sonata, the
Brahms 2nd Sonata, and the Manevich Concerto.

Thanks for any help you can give.
