About this exposition

Name: Juan José Molero Ramos Main Subject: Clarinet (Early music) Research supervisor: Charles Toet Title of Research: A Concerto for Clarinet and Orchestra in E-Flat Major. The authorship issue between Mr. James Hook and Mr. Jean-Xavier Lefèvre Research Question: After discovering the same music written by two composers (J. Hook and J. X. Lefèvre), Who would be the authentic composer of the piece? Summary of Results: James Hook composed a Clarinet Concerto in E-flat Major in 1812 which seems to be the first English clarinet concerto in 19th century. Nobody realized before this concerto is the same music as Lefèvre’s Clarinet Concerto in E-flat Major. The reason is Lefèvre’s Clarinet Concerto was lost untill now. Internet Data systems (like RISM) make possible to locate Lefèvre’s score in the Russian State Library in Moscow. During the research process I discovered similarities between both concertos and I focused my research to clear this authorship issue. The tools used to be successful in my target was the comparison of the music itself from both composer between them and with the concerto, but also and more important, the bibliographic data of both original sources by using archives and documentation techniques.
