Massenet's Clarinet Quintet - why has it taken me
so long to discover its existence? FS anyone?

Probably because it was written by Giacomo Meyerbeer.

Oops - senior moment - but then I do mentally bracket them together!

A quick look in Worldcat only shows a Barenreiter edition from 2001.

Thank you Jim - it's a lovely work!

If, like me, you have a big admiration for the music of
Zemlinsky, this link might be of interest, regarding his
unfinished Clarinet Quartet.

I may be mistaken, but I seem to recall hearing Rakov described as a sort of 'Russian (or Soviet) Poulenc'. If I'm remembering this correctly, it's fitting that he composed a number of sonatas for woodwind and piano (i.e. see also, the threads on flute and oboe works):
