I'm literally in the middle of a heavy coding session, so I'm listening to
"keep me alert" music. I was just listinging to Bartok's "The Miraculous
Mandarin" (on good headphones, no need to annoy the masses ;^) and heard a
gorgeous clarinet solo toward the beginning of the piece (2nd track), and
started listening to the clarinet throughout this piece. There is a lot
of brilliant work (IMNSHO) by the clarinet section in this work.

The recording I have is by the St. Louis Symphony, conducted by Richard
Slatkin, 1994. Any idea who the clarinetists are/were during this period?
