Unsung Brahms for Viola

[Kriton]

3 Questions regarding unsung Brahms:

- Does anyone know of a recording of Brahms' Horn Trio with a viola substituting the horn?

- Does anyone know of a recording other than that on Crystal of Brahms' clarinet quintet with a viola substituting the clarinet?

There are plenty of recordings of Brahms' other clarinet works (the 2 sonatas and the trio) with viola instead of clarinet, but the 2 works above don't seem to be all that popular in a viola version.

- Does anyone know if the 2 wind trios by Brahms are ever performed with a standard piano trio setting (piano, violin & cello)?

Hope someone can shed light on (all) this!

I think there was a recording on the Odeon label of the horn trio in the alternate version, but it may no longer be available?...
