What composers also played the clarinet? By this, I don't mean people that were first and foremost clarinetists and composed mostly, or exclusively for their instrument: Crussell, Cavallini, Cahuzac, Baermann, Klosé, etc: I find Crusell the most interesting of the lot as a composer.
I mean full-fledged composers that wrote symphonies, string quartets, operas, etc., and that also played the clarinet. I can only think of four: Villa-Lobos, Hindemith (the clarinet wasn't their main instrument, but they played it) and in recent times: John Adams and Jörg Widmann. Any others?
