Leeson says: <We might not agree on the subject, and I respect your right to have your own views on these things, but for anyone on the list who thinks that your point is universally accepted by all clarinetists
should understand that there is at least one who thinks it to be a perspective that diminishes the music at the expense of ease to the clarinetist.>>
Dan, I figured I would get a reply on this from you on this, and I respect your opinion very much.
In terms of diminishing the music, however, playing that lovely solo in the second movement of the Beethoven on a cold C clarinet, is inviting disaster!
In most performance circumstances, there would hardly be a second to blow some warm air into the C clarinet.
Anyway, I just gave this as an example of what can be done. Maybe next time I play this, I'll do it on a "C" clarinet.
Walter
