try looking as some resonance fingerings. and keep in mind that there isn't only one soprano singing the concert G all the way through, and there's a lot of staggering. you and the other clarinetist should just work out smooth transitions with one another. and if one person actually CAN sustain that A the entire way, then great. as long as the person doing it is comfortable for the entire duration without feeling like they're going to fall over, it shouldnt be a problem. and like you said, the tone needs to be pure, so just work with the other clarinet player and see if you can match one another.

and i dont think it should really be that difficult to blend the A's of two clarinet players at soft dynamic level.
