I recently purchased a clarinet/piano rendition of Artie Shaw's concerto. It
was published by Consolidated Music Publishers in New York. I bought my copy
at Stanton Sheet Music in Columbus, OH (phone # 614-224-4257). One minor
complaint--the piano reduction seems to be missing some pretty big chunks of
the orchestral part, and I noticed that the clarinet part is missing about
24 measures or so from the middle of the concerto (at least, compared to the
recording I have of the concerto). Still, the part provides a good starting
point.

You might want to see if a version published by Warner Bros Publications is
available. I have Artie Shaw's etudes book, and the last page includes an
excerpt from the concerto. The notice at the bottom indicates that it was
published by Mills Music Inc., with worldwide rights administered by Warner
Bros Publications. Perhaps that rendition is more complete than the one I
purchased.

Hope this helps!
