OK, so sue me, I'm still behind in my e-mail. I actually have an answer
for your question!

Niels Gade is the composer of Phantasiestucke for clarinet and piano. I
believe my edition is Belwin Mills. A neat piece for those not quite
ready for Schumann's work of the same name (and in a similar vein).

Need more info? E-mail me directly and I'll check it out at home.
