I have been searching for the following piece that was recorded by =
Richard Stoltzman with the Guildhall String Ensemble (on a CD that also =
contains the Finzi 5 Bagatelles amongst other pieces included on the =
cd). I am starting to think that, perhaps, the piece has not been =
published.=20

"Four Seasons" A Suite of English Folk Song settings
(Clarinet & String Orchestra) - (Lawrence Ashmore)
BMG/RCA Victor #60437

There were posts to Klarinet some years back by Michael Norsworthy and =
Gary Van Cott but no followup. I have emailed RCA but haven't heard =
anything back. I have also searched a large number of catalogues. Thus =
far, no luck.

I have turned up a webpage on Lawrnce Ashmore, as follows. =
http://www.musiciansgallery.com/start/arrangers/ashmore%28larry%29.htm

The folk song suite is discussed @-----. "RCA Records =
commissioned him to write and arrange for the American clarinettist, =
Richard Stolzman, music by Gerald Finzi and Larry himself, on an album =
of English music .... "

If anybody has any info, I'd appreciate any information. I have =
emailed RCA but haven't heard anything back. Thanks.
