Anton Stadler’s duos for clarinet are collected into a single volume for the first time, and include hitherto unpublished music. Six Duettinos afford the opportunity for clarinettists to perform a range of short movements in different tempos and styles, with the distinction between first and second clarinet writing being consistently maintained. The six Duo Concertantes differ in their more democratic treatment, with solos and accompaniments equally distributed. The duos offer a window into the instrumental idioms and musical language of Mozart’s friend and clarinettist

Anton Stadler’s Solos for Clarinet and and Duos for Clarinet, edited by Martin Harlow, are excellent contributions to the clarinet’s repertoire. They include four impressive and technically challenging solos and two musically attractive sets of duos, by the most outstanding clarinettist of the late eighteenth century. The introduction, editing, and textual notes are accurate and scholarly—both editions are highly recommended to all clarinetists.

Albert R. Rice, clarinettist and author.

Martin Harlow offers some important new insights into the vicissitudes of freelance performers during Mozart’s lifetime. The cultural milieu of Anton Stadler’s small-scale compositions is particularly well caught, offering an inspirational context for today’s performers of these editions.
