Fennell's recordings are legendary...however, his Eastman recording of the
Hindemith Symphony in Bb for Concert Band has many errors, not the least
is the clarinet solo in the first movement.....wrong notes and rhythms!!

Be aware that a wind ensemble is not the same thing as a Symphony
Band.....and that one or two on a part is not the same sound.
