Yes! Shame on me. Thanks for the reminder.
I have a copy of the Steiner edition of Archduke Rudolph's Sonata 1821-2
I have only a recording of Rudolph's Septet...
Beethoven began to teach Rudolph to play the piano in about 1804
Compositions lessons followed a little later in 1809
Thank for these. Spohr's late Septet also uses the A clarinet
