Re: Weber 2 Mvt 1: Boring?

Weber 2 is a great choice and very appropriate even in Carnegie Hall. I'm sure if Sabina were playing it there it would draw good crowd.

I think some people scoff at Weber's works because they are often not put in context with when and why they were written. They are show pieces for the clarinet and not much more. Weber wrote them with not much more in mind than to show off the virtuoso talents of H. Baermann. Because of this Weber's clarinet works are a lot of fun for the audience to listen to.

Conratulations on getting to solo with your group and HAVE FUN with it.
