Richard,
Frank Ell performed it with the Navy Band at the ICA Towsend Festival in 1986.
Check with the Navy Band or Prof. Ell (Michigan State). I can privately give
you one of the Navy Band Soloists phone # who may have it if you want (John
Coulehan). Or you may contact Snavely himself.
Good Luck,
David C. Blumberg

Subject: Weber Fantasia and Rondo

I have a proposal to the members of our great list:

I am in need of the arrangement of Weber's Fantasia and Rondo that was done
for clarinet and wind ensemble by Jack Snavely. It was published by Kendor
Music. I cannot purchase it, because it is out of print, I cannot get it on
Interlibrary loan because the only library in the US that has it won't send
it out, and I cannot get it from the International Clarinet Association's
special collections, because they don't have it!

Here is my dillema:

I have offered to perform it on an upcoming Ithaca College Wind Ensemble
concert (Sept 23), not having ANY idea how hard it would be to get!

Here is my proposal:

If anyone has it that is willing to lend it for a few weeks, not only would
I pay for the price of postage, but I am offering a copy of any one volume
of Robert Schmidt's four (now out of print) books on the clarinet. There is
Volume One - Care and Repair, Volume Two - The Value of Fundamentals,
Volume Three - Concepts of Rhythm, and the unpublished Volume Four - Toward
a more Beautiful Tone. In addition to this, you recieve my undying
gratitude!

Thanks for your consideration!!
