If only to point out the 'marketing coup' that it is but.......did y'all notice the use of the Silverstein ligature throughout the clarinet section....... and the AMAZING Eb playing?!!? I heard that fellow touring with the Berlin Philharmonic Quintet a few years ago (actually this was my first viewing of the Berlin Philharmonic where most of the five of them were on stage with the orchestra; didn't notice the female bassoonist though).

So, a Berlin Philharmonic question: Do they have a dedicated "away team" amongst the wind players?

Yes.....the Berlin Philharmonic Wind Quintet is the same five people...unless someone is sick. Actually the bassoonist in the quintet moved to the La Scala Orchestra in Milano several years ago, but she has stayed in the Berlin Phil Wind Quintet....so apparently you can leave the Berlin Phil and still play in the quintet......at least she does!
