Subj: Re: [kl] Bruch Concerto Op. 88?

Hi Kevin,

There is a published version of the Bruch double concerto by
N. Simrock, Hamburg - London.

There is also a CD performance, but you have me at a disadvantage
because I'm at work right now and the CD is at home. Can't remember
the label. Maybe another Klarinetist can help us.
