Poulenc ?! Good one Jeff! in the words of Jonathan Cohler..."This list
is amazing"

Here is the thing as strange as it seems. My Brother in law who lives
in Tacoma Washington, and who is a fine clarinetist, and I (I live in Eugene
Oregon) like to get out the duets when we are together. the only two we play is

the Kuhlau duets (I think are flute duets transcribed) and Lazarus/Cavilini
Grand duets or something. The thing is we have such fun playing these things,
the last time we laughed and played for 3 hours. Even though these are not good

music we still have fun, imagine what fun it would be if it were good music too.

again thanks to everyone who has help with this. Even though its not very
important, the duets can be fun for my Brother in law and me.
