Yes Dan, Ricky plays the Mozart with the Basset extension.

What I found particularly astonishing about Morales and his
playing is that he is fully at home in every era of classical
clarinet music. Normally one finds a particularly good player
who specializes in a chosen era, modern, the romantics, etc., but
Morales just plays them all. In a conversation with Jessica ???
of the Met who played 2nd to Morales in the Il Covengno, I asked
her why he had recorded so little, and particularly why he had
not recorded the Mozart concerto. When he played that work in
public, the critics ran out of adjectives. And her reaction was
that he has simply been too busy with other things. Now, it seems
that the conductor of the Philadephia orchestra is planning on a
recording of all the Mozart wind concerti and then we'll have a
chance to listen to his recording of the K. 622. Please don't
tell me that he does not have a basset clarinet in A.
