After an afternoon of fruitless searching in the library and on the
'net, I've decided to ask my fellow clarinetists for help. I am looking
for information on a couple of composers whose works I'm playing on my
recital in November.

Other than the paragraph in New Grove, I can't find anything on Bernhard
Heiden. I'm playing his _Sonatina_ and would like to do at least brief
program notes. I would even like to know if he is still alive - our 10+
year old sources say he's still alive, but he is quite old if he is.

The second composer I have been unabler to locate any information on is
J. Eduoard Barat. I know his dates and that he's French, but he doesn't
even have a paragraph in New Grove. Anyone have any information or know of
any sources I could try for Barat or his _Piece in Sol Minor_?

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give. Happy clarinetting!
