Not Robert D. Shaw, but Deborah Shaw, as the signature line of her message
indicates. I wouldn't raise this issue except that the other day someone
else responded to "Robert," but didn't provide the message to which they
were responding, and I couldn't figure out who they meant and went hunting
through old messages for the elusive "Robert." There appear to be three
solutions to this confusion: (1) People should read the sig line to see who
actually wrote the message; don't assume it was the person named in the
"From" line. (2) Deborah (and others with joint e-mail accounts) should
put her own name on the "From" line, as well as at the sig line (if this is
possible). (3) Deborah should change her name to "Robert." :)

And Robert, I mean Deborah, you might look for further repertoire
suggestions in Oxford UP's Clarinet Technique (Frederick Thurston/Thea
King, 4th ed. 1985). The book includes an extremely useful list of music
for clarinet compiled by Georgina Dobree. Pages 82-85 list music for cl.
and strings with piano. Check the entries by Amberg, Douglas, Holbrooke,
Jacob, Karyotakis, Payne, M. Powell (this must be Mel, worth checking out
-- used to play piano and arrange with Benny Goodman, then became a
"classical" composer), Reinecke, Shaw (C. Shaw, not R. or D.), Stoker
(Bram?) and Uhl. (It also lists the pieces you played at your concert.)
If you don't have & can't find this book, e-mail me and I'll send you
these pages. Good luck!
