Pardon the intrusion, but is there a mp3 clip of the Bruch. I have never
heard it.

Hi Mark,
I recently had the opportunity to play the Bruch Double Concerto for
Clarinet
and Viola (well, the first two movements) and I have grown quite fond of the
clarinet/viola combination. I would like to see more works for clarinet and
viola, unaccompanied if possible.
Happy New Year,
Andy
