Hi Patricia,

I don't see why that wouldn't work. If the b.c. plays my "second" (transposed)
clarinet part as written, wouldn't it "sound" in the range of the bassoon? The nice
thing about the bassoon part is, when transposed for Bb clarinet, none of the
transposed notes go below the clarinet's standard range of low E.

Regards,

Andy
