Subj: [kl] Looking for help to find an article in any of three places

Dear friends, I need some assistance to find an article.

The title is, " L'Abbé Gelinek and the quintet, K581," as authored by Pamela
Weston and which appeared in "Clarinet," Vol. 27; Issue 3; June 2000;
pp. 44-45; facs. ISSN: 0361-5553.

An abstract of the article reads, "

Josef Gelinek (1758-1825), a Jesuit, met Mozart in Prague when the composer
visited the city in 1787. At that time, Gelinek became domestic chaplain and
tutor to the household of Count Kinsky, who moved to Vienna two years later.
Gelinek eventually settled in Eisenstadt. Several publications by Artaria of
arrangements of Mozart's music contain dedications to Gelinek, perhaps
implying that he had loaned them the original MSS."

The German version of the article appeared as,

"Vorläufer des Mozartschen Klarinettenkonzerts: Das Konzert-Fragment KV 621v
für Stadler oder Springer?"

which is rendered as,

"Precursor of the Mozart clarinet concerto: The concert fragment K.621v
written for Stadler or for Springer?"

The translator was Dietrich Demus

The source for the German article is:

"Rohrblatt: Magazin für Oboe, Klarinette, Fagott und Saxophon [Germany];
Vol. 17; Issue 2; June 2002; pp. 64-66; music ISSN: 0944-0291."

The article may also have been published in "Clarinet & saxophone» XXVI/2
(summer 2001), 24-25."

Strangely enough, I have no nearby library with a collection of either
Clarinet magazine or the English journal "Clarinet & Saxophone."
