Krommer Double Clarinet Concerto Op. 35

Dear friends:

This is an urgent request.

This evening, my orchestra librarian informed me that she could not find parts and score for the Krommer Double Cl. Concerto Op. 35, thus jeopardizing our project to feature this piece in February 2006.

It would be a real shame not to perform this wonderful piece as planned because of logistical reasons.

I spent the last couple of hours looking around in the web, ICA, Klarinet Bulletin Boards, etc. I cannot find reference to a publisher with complete parts and score. However, this piece is often played, so this must exist somewhere.

I need ASAP the data that my librarian needs to order (rental or purchase) the whole set of parts and score for this piece. If you have this info, please post.

Many thanks as always for your help

Mario Poirier

As you probably discovered, Musica Rara (who at one time handled the orchestral rental for Krommer Op.35) has been absorbed by Thompson Edition, Inc.

It now does not seem to be in their current offerings.

However, it seems that Breitkopf & Härtel is showing the parts for rental on request:

Breitkopf & Hartel does also handle a lot of Musica Rara's pieces. Several of the old Musica Rara-published pieces I have have a Breitkopf sticker on the front.

I remember my school's librarian saying she had to order the parts on rental from Germany when I performed it last year. I wish I could offer more details, but that's all she said at the time, and has since retired.
