Not in the near future. In the new year, though.

We have a Beethoven cycle running with the Orchestra of the Age of
Enlightenment, admittedly a period orchestra, of which the remaining
concerts before Christmas are 4 and 6 with Mackerras and 9 with Rattle.

It would be difficult for a clarinet player not to play modern
instruments, as so much of our repertoire is later. However, the older
instruments are better for Beethoven.
