The great Simeon Bellison had a clarinet choir that contained some of
what were then America's best clarinetists. He arranged all sorts of
music for the group including entire Mozart symphonies. When he
died his widow donated all of his music to some facility in Israel
where it now sits.

If whoever it was that was looking for clarinet choir music pursued that
and found where it was (probably at the Univ. of Tel Aviv) it would be
a wonderful thing to resurrect this music.
