Dan, there is no Koechel listing, in fact, the ad on the back cover
lists the Clarinet Concerto as Opus 107 and the Kegelstatt is listed
only as trio # 7.
I have vol. II with 3 of the six duos.
Duo 4 begins in C Maj (written), 4/4, Allegro - 2nd mvmt in F Maj, 3/4,
Andante Sostenuto - 3rd mvmt C Maj, 2/2, Rondo Allegro. Duo 5 has two
movements, it begins in C Maj, 4/4, Allegro Agitato - C Maj, 2/4 Presto
Assai. Duo 6 is also in two movements, C Maj, 4/4, Allegro maestoso -
Thema con vaiationi, C Maj 4/4 Andantino with five variations. This may
not be much to go on, I asked because after playing two movements for
the first time last night, both of us thought they sounded strange.
Thanks,
Jesse Rogers
