Rossini, Gioacchino: Introduction, Theme and Variations for Clarinet
OR Rossini: Variations for Clarinet?
Any additions or clarification to this research from list members
would be helpful.

How do these 14 publications match or differ? Orchestra librarians
often have trouble finding the version that matches the soloist part.
These seem to be different works? 3 Different titles?

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarinet_concerto
=E2=80=A2 Gioachino Rossini's Introduction, Theme and Variations in E-flat
major/B-flat major for Clarinet and Orchestra.
=E2=80=A2 Gioachino Rossini's Variations for Clarinet and Small Orchestra =
in
C major (1809).
=E2=80=A2 Gioachino Rossini's Introduction, Theme and Variations in B
minor/B-flat major for Clarinet and Orchestra.

Grove's doesn't mention the Intro, Th & Var -- only the following:
Variazioni a clarinetto, C, cl, orch c1809 Bc, pts (Leipzig, 1824), QR
vi, 57=E2=80=9367.

The works are not (yet) published in the collected edition of Rossini.

From DD - Here's what I have on the above-mentioned version:
INTRODUCTION is an Andante in 6/8, E-flat major -- 52 bars of very
florid solo writing, cadencing in Eb.
THEMA -- "common" time, B-flat major, 25 bars. No tempo mark (but
clearly faster) Var I - perpetual motion triplets for the solo, binary
form, both halves repeated; a 5-bar forte interlude for the band while
soloist rests.
Var II - predominantly 16th-notes; same formal scheme, with interlude
at the end.
Var III - arpeggios and chromatic scales; same format with interlude
Minore -- Largo, Bb minor. 16 bars of clarinet (no repeats), 5 bar
interlude.
Maggiore -- Bb major again, fast. Scales, arpeggios, etc. Return to
the binary format followed by a coda with solo-tutti exchanges, a
brief cadenza-like passage and tutti ending.
VERY conventional show-off variations in the ubiquitous 19th-century style.
