If you are just looking for a CD with the Poulenc sonata, I would recommend
French Music for Clarinet and Piano with clarinetist Ronald Van
Spaedonck. It also includes Debussy Premiere Rhapsodie, the Saint-Saens
sonata and a number of other works by French composers. It is from
Harmonia Mudi s.a. catalog number HMN 911596.
