And another thing...you should really watch what you say on things like this.. You have no idea who is reading it or who I even am.. For all you know I could be someone important.. or maybe the president of a major orchestra is on here. You certianly aren't building a good reputation by typing the things you just did.

You hear, "If Mozart had had a contrabassoon he would have used it," and the next thing you know someone is playing K. 361 with a contrabassoon and offering this entirely irrelevant argument to support the change in instrumentation.

>> If I remember right, I thought you had mentioned before about playing baroque oboe concertos too. I bought the Handel Oboe concerto no.3 (in G minor) transcribed for Bb and I think if Handel had access to clarinet players then he would have written the concerto for clarinet in the first place. I would highly recommend this concerto to you if you are interested. (especially if you like baroque music)
