>Until recently, it never occurred to me to bring up the subject of a
>favorite recording but I recently acquired a new CD titled: The
>American Clarinet, with Larry Combs, Bradley Opland (double bass) and
>Deborah Sobol (piano). This includes Sonata for Clarinet & Piano (Aaron
>Copland) Sonata for Clarinet & Piano (Leonard Bernstein) Three Preludes
>for Piano (George Gerswin, arranged for clarinet and piano by James Cohn)
>and Benny's Gig for Clarinet & Double Bass (Morton Gould). Its been sitting
>on a shelf for about a week waiting to be played and I finally listened to
>it this evening. What a delightful variety of pieces that really use and
>show off the clarinet, and what lovely tonality and expression from
>Larry Combs. I guess this has to be, for now, my favorite clarinet
>CD. Does anyone else have a particular recording (preferably an in
>print CD) that they'd like to recommend?!
