The best source of information I know is: http://www-sul.stanford.edu/webcat/ Click on "expert search" (top right) Type "scores" in the "everything" field (to trim off recordings), type "trios (2violins), viola" in the "subject" field, Select "Music library" in the Search Limits, and launch "search catalog", and you will get a fairly good approximation of the set of works composed for this very group of musicians. Of course, this doesn't guarantee that the works are accessible, either for a free downlaod on the Web, or in paper edition. I doubt the Stanford Library is willing to scan in all its musical stuff, and post it on their web site afterwards :-) but I am very grateful for their server.
