Five albums (some may not be Clarinet)...

1. Emma Thompson Does Weber
(all my favorites Op. 73, 74, 26, 38)
2. Gustav Holst: The Plantes
(gorgeous music; powerful, stirring)
3. Richard Stoltzman: The Essential Clarinet
(includes his recording of Copland, Bernstein, Stravinsky
and a few others)
4. Igor Stravinsky: The Rite of Spring and The Firebird
(the complete music to these two superb ballets)
5. Aaron Copland Collection
(features his Clarinet Concerto, Episodes from Rodeo, Billy the
Kid, Lincoln Portrait and Appalachian Spring)

Most are clarinet related, and some of the orchestral stuff,
particularly Stravinsky and Copland has a lot of solo parts for Bb and
Eb Clarinet!

Oh, and Lisa, another great "King of the Hill" quote!
