Subj: Re: [kl] Mendelssohn Konzertstuck/Concert Piece misprint

Peter,

I have the International Music Company printing of the the Mendelssohn
Concertpiece No 1, and can verify that bar 53 is mistransposed as you
say, though I can't say I've noticed it in the few times I've run
through it... :">

Also, the title page of both second parts are incorrect (the part
[incorrectly] labeled in the title as "BASSOON or CELLO (instead of
Basset Horn)" is marked inside as "CLARINET in B flat (instead of Basset
Horn)", and the part labeled on the title page as "CLARINET (instead of
Basset Horn)" is marked inside as "BASSOON or CELLO (instead of Basset
Horn)"...

In a similar vein, the International Music Company of the Weber
Concertino has a typo in the clarinet part in measure 66, in which the
fourth beat is printed as (in 16th notes): F G# F G(natural). There
should be no G#, and the piano part shows it as F G F G.
