Does anybody know the 2 Konzertstucke op 113/4 for clarinet, basset horn and piano?
I have heard them and I have the version with orchestra on a recital with Sharon Kam and also the piano version in the Brilliant Box (these were older 70s recordings from Bayer records or Vox or a similar label) but I cannot comment on the pieces as they are not present in my mind. Like Weber's and some of Spohr's they were written for the famous clarinet player Baermann (who played them with his son).

Aside from the obvious choices, I like the 1st String Quintet a lot. It's on that Hausmusik twofer mentioned above by king ubu.

Both string quintets are very good pieces that deserve to be better known!

The Scottish and Reformation symphonies.  Beginning to 'click' with the Symphony No. 2 "Hymn of Praise".
