naxos have started a series of the complete set. One was played on
radio 3 in `record review' new releases secton on 27 Dec: here's the
entry from the play list

CARL STAMITZ Clarinet Concertos, Vol.1:
Berkes, Takashima, Okazaki,
Nicolaus Esterhazy Sinfonia
NAXOS 8.553584 (CD, budget)

anthony burton said "just the sort of repertoire one might not buy if
it weren't naxos" (and i thought "speak for yourself, mate"). the
performance sounded entirely reasonable if not exactly inspired. i
shall probably buy it (on the grounds that it's so damned cheap).
