Neil,
Is your teacher from Mars?? Why doesn't she have an extra
clarinetist at school sit next to WW II and do the clarinet lines when they
come up? Another option is to copy the clarinet parts from WW II & III and
give them to you to play - copy your sax parts for the other book so
everything is covered. I've done this musical and the sop sax does not
give the right character to the musical.
