Drucker recorded a performance for Music Minus One.

There is also this one (although I do not know this particular clarinetist)

Be cautioned that the KJOS version of it has incorrect tempo markings (6/8 marked in quarternote tempi).

The 6/8 Tarantella should at maxium be 112 and possibly even 100 to get it really clean.

Notation error:

Measure 16 the gracenote should be played F natural, not the F# which the previous F# in the measure would by rule suggest.

I had this same problem last year since the Cavalinni piece is one of the Interlochen Arts Camp audition pieces. After some "Googling" I found a good recording by an Italian clarinetist, Sergio Bossi. His website is:

http://www.sergiobosi.it/CDs/cd.htm

The CD is published by Bongiovanni of Bologna, cat. no. GB 5113-2. Their web site in Italian and English is:

http://www.bongiovanni70.com

Using this info, I was able to find the CD at a UK music mail order house (just like Amazon) that shipped it to me in less than a week. What they dind't charge for VAT covered the price of the shipping. I hope this helps.

Hans Rudolph Stadler has the best recording of it that I have heard. I don't like the Drucker performance on the MMO as it sounds like they told him to "hold it back" and he tried his best to.


But it sounds really "held back"......

I agree with David.

Hans Rudolf Stalder's 1987 recording (Jecklin 578-2) is probably the benchmark but difficult to find.

If I remember correctly, Drucker's Music Minus One recording, which I also own but haven't recently heard always sounded "dry", with no resonance. Perhaps the acoustics during the session were less than favorable...GBK

Yup, the acoustics were awful. But also I wasn't impressed with his playing for that.

And I like lots of Drucker recordings. Heard him perform the Brahms Quintet live and it was really good.

I also had a similar problem. However, my friends found the song at singingfish.com. I have not listened to the song, but I did look to see if it was there, and the link is:

http://search.singingfish.com/sfw/search?query=Adagio+and+Tarantella&a_submit=1&aw=1&sfor=av&dur=a&fmp3=1&freal=1&fwin=1&fqt=1&cmus=1&cmov=1&crad=1&ctv=1&cnews=1&cspt=1&cfin=1&coth=1&rpp=10&persist=1&x=12&y=20

Also it is not a CD, but you can listen to it for free using real player.

Good luck,
Katie

Cool site, but poor Clarinet playing. I wonder if that was a high school group? The group wasn't tight at all either.

The Sergio Bossi recording is fairly good. You can listen to a portion of it on his website in "Real" format. The rest of the CD has other nice Cavallini pieces. I think you can order it from the Bongiovanni website, but it will be cheaper if you can find it at an on-line CD seller.
