The arrangemant was made for John Manasse (sp)(clarinet) by James
Cohn. It was recorded on a CD by Manasse which included the 2 concertos
and the concertino by Weber. I don't know how avalable the CD is; I got
my copy through Weiner music. It has been published, I believe I saw
copy in the library here. As for comparing this version to other
versions, this is the only arrangement of the piece I have heard.
Therefore, I cannot comment on that.
