I agree with you Dan. But I've played mvt 2 for church voluntary.

And the band director would only allow my student and I to play one
movement with band because the rest of the band would be tooooo bored.
(Community college--there is talent, but often not maturity.)
My attitude was that it was better to play one movement than none,
especially in view of the student's work on the piece.

And I was already cheating by playing Bb clar..... (not to get started on
that issue.)

Most of what Iget involved with in my area is snippets, single works,
what I call sampler music. On the last Palm Trio gig I did play a couple
of multi-movement works as intended--with good audience reaction.
Building rep and audience.

Off to rehearsal, then off to ClarinetFest.
