Whilst in Canterbury i found this CD for a quid in a Charity shop.

The bauble CD includes this piece - one i have not heard of before -
Julius Rietz - Clarinet Concerto in G minor
Concerto for clarinet & orchestra in G minor, op. 29
Sharon Kam -- clarinet
Sinfonia Varsovia
Gregor Bühl -- conductor
I. Allegro Agitato -- 0:00
II. Adagio -- 8:27
III. Allegro vivace -- 14:38
Julius Rietz was a German composer, conductor and Cellist. He succeeded Mendelssohn as conductor of the Gewandhaus concerts and as teacher of composition at the Conservatory.

The Style of this splendid concerto is unmistakably Mendelssohnian.
