Talk:Quintet for Clarinet and Strings

Ambiguous
Brahms has a fairly famous Clarinet Quintet. The address of this page should probably be changed to contain "(Mozart)".


 * Probably the page Clarinet Quintet (Mozart) has the right title, but the content here is better-formulated, in my opinion, which is what my merge suggestion meant (I know that's not what you were referring to, especially since you wrote that before I made the suggestion anyway... darn precognitive telepaths ;) ) Indeed, even if there were only two famous clarinet quintets, there are enough often-enough-played ones that a page Clarinet Quintet  (or Quintet for Clarinet and Strings, similarly) should be about the genre, not about a specific case with a disambig/other uses line at the top- and this doesn't even have that. There are few string sextets as famous as the Brahms two- even the Strauss, Tchaikovsky souvenir and Schoenberg, sextets by other names, aren't, I think? (or maybe one of them is better known than the Brahms two, given how often the Brahms have to be introduced in concert. Hrm. A question of fact, not mere declaration... I wonder. Anyway. But the page String sextet isn't just about the Brahms works for similar reasons. As to clarinet quintets... Putting aside Carl Maria von Weber's reasonably famous quintet too!... A composer whose 100th "was" yesterday, Benjamin Frankel wrote a twice-recorded clarinet quintet, just to continue the list a bit...) Schissel-nonLop! 14:18, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
