Well, finally getting to the point, the piece has a few arpeggios and runs =
which go most of the 4-octave range and are pretty cool if kept intact. I =
thought: "Four octaves? (Low-C) Bass clarinet?" and decided to try it down =
an augmented fourth -- i.e. in written f, concert eb. It seems to me to wo=
rk well in this key and I've been having fun with it, though I don't have t=
he piano part in this key and will probably never need it.

So does anyone else have a favorite Arpeggione key?

longwindedly,

Yes, I prefer the version which starts on Clarinet A and not B.
