I can sort of understand that in terms of the basic set of parts that
you get when you make a purchase, but I find it amazing they won't send
you those parts on request. What with the software available for
typesetting music, it can't be *that* difficult. If I had the Finale
file available I could probably do it in half an hour: two seconds to
change the transposition and the rest just making sure all the slurs and
accents and so on aren't in silly positions.

What about Henle? They produced a clarinet-and-piano edition of the
concerto recently (and their basset reconstruction is a bit different
from B=C3=A4renreiter's). Have they got a full set of parts as well?
