eager to
revive this instrument...

Isn't it at least two works for the basset? And then at least one =
(Cosi?
Tito?) for the basset in Bb?

So now I can buy a low C basset clarinet in A from the dominant
manufacturers (Buffet, Leblanc, and Selmer), which has only one piece =
of
music written for it, however I cannot buy a bass clarinet in A at all =
which
has a significant (Not that K.622 isn't significant.) repertoire =
written for
it. Considering the current emphasis on period/original instrument
performance practice this seems a little strange. Has anyone called any =
non
dominant manufacturer to inform them of the gap in the market? I was
thinking Wurlitzer would be a good option.

Selmer no longer makes an A Bass clarinet, not even on special order, =
so
it now bewcomes impossible to purchase one new. Mark
