Hello listers,

We're practising the clarinet trio Op. 3 by Alexander Zemlinksy for
concerts on Nov. 29, 30 and Dec. 1. In the third movement, bar 206 in
the clarinet part it says:

"con xutimento"

I can't find this anywhere. Does anyone have an idea what it could mean?
Or is it a printing error? The first time that melody comes, it says,
"con molto espressivo" (which of course is a grammtic error although it
does appear correctly at the beginning of the first movement) and there
are *very many* errors, mainly leaving out expression instructions such
as these or slurs.

Two more curiosities:
Second movement, bar 81: "breit. rit." (Does that mean broad
ritardando?)
and second movement, bar 88: "breit.sempre" (Does this mean "always
broadly"??)

There is a lot of back and forth between German and Italian terms.

By the way, is anyone else bothered by the chord in the second movement,
bar 76, beat two? I'm tempted to play my note up a half a tone.

Hope someone out there can give me a clue here.

David
