    Apparently there was a complaint directly to RS about this CD, the only one I ever had. Weird.

      Thank you Thank you. I am downloading as we speak. I am a great fan of Klo"cker. He has excellent musical taste in addition to being a very accomplished clarinettist. And he seeks out the unknown. I try to listen to whatever he records, but his CD's go out of print very quickly. I am looking for his recording Hummel Chamber Music at Scho"nbrunn, Label: Koch Schwann ASIN: B000001SOQ, Fleur de Son Classics #57983. Not strictly Harmonie. There is some piano, guitar, violin. Thanks again, Col Legno.

      My pleasure. I don't have that CD but, as you probably know, there are loads of Klöcker recordings on Odeon's blog (not that one though). May be worth asking there.

      hello anchusa, thank you for reply and suggestion.

      In the meantime I have listened to the Lachner, and I find myself agreeing with the review that this music has nothing to say. I amend my previous statement to say that Klo"cker usually has excellent musical taste. Well not every download is a winner, but better to find out this way. And again thank you for maintaining this excellent resource.
