This appeared yesterday. Maybe you should ask Gary if the book will
lead one to compositions written for the precursor to the clarinet.

The Baroque Clarinet by Albert Rice, published by Oxford University
Press is finally available in paperback. It is $24.95 plus S&H.

More details on our web site.
