He's Wrong about the Rachmaninoff (ml 4433) and the Tch. 6. which are
Gigliotti recordings. That discography in the clarinet magazine also listed
many works with no clarinet at all. The Tch. 4 is indeed McLane

>>>I believe that only one McLane record is currently available, but it's a
good one: the Dvorak Cello Concerto with Piatigorsky, reissued on a Sony
Masterworks Heritage CD, MHK 62876. This piece is full of clarinet solos and
McLane is clearly audible throughout. (The Bruch Kol Nidre is also o=
n
the CD and is listed in the bibliography, but there are no clarinet solos in
it.) >>

Yes, I had forgotten about this. I haven't heard this transfer, but I
understand it is big improvement over the various lps, which sound so bad you
can barely hear McLane.
