As far as I know, the only recorded clarinet concerto of M. Haydn is actually a
modern transcription of a D majort flute concerto (P.54). It is (was?) available
on CD on the Olympia lable OCD 406 performed by a Romanian group called The
Quodlibet Musicum Chamber Orchestra. As the conductor/clarinetist Aurelian Octav
Popa was also the transcriber of the piece I don't know if it was ever
published, at least on this side of the old iron curtain. According to the
disk's notes the flute part was transcribed "without changing a single note,
whilst adapting the ornamentation, register and especially the interpretive
style." I know of no real clarinet concerto by the younger Haydn, but much of
his work remains unpublished.

Sorry, no major musicological find here.

Could anyone tell me how I can get a copy of Michaels Haydn's Clarinet
Concerto. I heard this work on the radio and would like to find it. The New
York Public Library doesn't have a listing which makes me think that it could
be some kind of recent musicological find or confusion. Anyone? Thanks.
