I am using the International because it was the only one available at
my local music store, and I didn't want to order. All I can say is
thank goodness for the piano score, because I find a lot of the
markings in the cl. part are not to my liking. I think that it should
be standard practise however to study an original score rather than
just looking at an edited version. It's made a number of changes in
my interpretation. So, yes I agree, Int'l because of the piano score,
but don't just use the cl. part!
