Andrea, it's not a debate, since the facts are put forth by the
manufacturer and leave no room for debate. The catalog and information
is available on-line at the www.gleblanc.com site.

There's no arguing this; I can well believe that you liked your Opus
better than any of the other clarinets you tried or you wouldn't have
bought the one you did. My original question to you still stands,
though, slightly re-phrased - knowing what you do now, would you still
really go only for the Opus for your A clarinet, or will you consider
the Concerto?
