We have two new items of note:

C923: Richard M=FChlfeld, Brahms' Clarinettist by Maren Goltz & Herta
M=FCller. Artivo, 2007, PB, 395 pages. Subtitled: Introduction,
Transcription, and Commentary of the Documentation of Christian
M=FChlfeld. Richard M=FChlfeld was the clarinetist who inspired Brahms to=

write his four brilliant chamber works for clarinet. This book is based
on the archive kept by his brother Christian and published here in a
complete and annotated form for the first time along with many
photographs. The book includes a short biography and many tables of data
(concert tours and programs, chamber music events and ensembles,
orchestral performances, repertoire, musicians he performed with, and
concert reviews). The primarily language of the book is German. All of
the text has been translated into English but the tables have not.
However, except for the concert reviews, they are mostly lists of
compositions, places, instruments, and performers that are easy to
understand. There is also an appendix with information on M=FChlfeld's
clarinets and his compositions. Note: Because of the paper this book is
printed on, it is exceptionally heavy for its size. $49.95 + S&H

We apologize for the delay in getting this collection:
C902: Five Old American Songs for Clarinet and Organ arranged by James
Sclater. E.C. Schirmer, 2007, SS, 34 + 12 pages. This collection of
songs is intended for both church and concert settings. They are: 1.
When Jesus Wept by William Billings, 2. My Shepherd Will Supply My Need,
3. Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen, 4. Amazing Grace, and 5. Walls of
Zion. Songs 1, 2, and 5 are in the classical style, with the first two
playable by better intermediate clarinetists (the last is fast and will
require reasonably good technical skills). Nobody Knows the Trouble I've
Seen and Amazing Grace are written in a New Orleans jazz style with
improvisation encouraged. $29.95 + S&H
