Does anyone have a copy of this recording?
Geistliche Arien für Sopran und konzertierende Klarinette
Rachel Yakar - soprano
Dieter Klöcker - clarinet
EMI, 1980
featuring music of Sebestyén, Salieri, Mozart, Paisiello, Cherubini, Guglielmi, Sarti, Schubert and Paër.
It was never released on CD. I'm especially interested in the text of the Paisiello.

I've got a CD (that a friend copied for me) of Kloecker with Soprano + Orchestra but probably not that one/same repertoire. I'll have a look, there is a small chance it WAS released on CD (or "bootlegged" in China, where my friend was living for some years).

Thanks Donald. Any help appreciated.
Klöcker recorded two albums at that time. 1. Geistliche Arien (EMI, 1980) 2. Unbekannte Arien (Acanta, 1987). Easy to get them mixed up ...
He recorded one piece twice, the first time as Paisiello: Accensa clare face fidelis, and then again as Mozart: Die Hoffnung dient zum Stabe. The attribution each time followed the source, although nowadays Paisiello is regarded as the composer.

Kloecker WAS guilty of some errrr "imaginative musicology"

Well, yes and no...
He was very free with musical texts - he would add ornaments, cadenzas, insert movements of other works etc.
But when it came to writing articles or liner notes Klöcker was a bit more circumspect. You have to read it in the original German, and in unedited form if possible. Often he left clue somewhere, almost a challenge to other researchers. The whole "Mozart Quartet" thing is largely a beat up, which has unfortunately stuck. Even there he gave a clue, listing Goepfert first among prominent Mozart arrangers, before even Hoffmeister and Pleyel.
Of course the Haydn Clarinet Concerto affair was a complete debacle, even Sonja Gerlach from the Haydn Institute wrote a refutation. But that is just one project from perhaps hundreds.
