Hmmh, it seems to be a more theoretical question than a demand borne...

If you wanna play in a symphonic orchestra, please use the standard set Bb + A. If you wanna fight in a street gang with jazzers and many folk music - an additional C could be a good choice. But please forget the posted mind about "bad intonation"! For every base tune the intonation could be bad if the player is, and could be good in a mouth of a pro...

I know a lot of professional musicians, and only a few of them owns a clarinet set with A- and Es-model. And they only use this for difficult pieces in symphonic workscope - written especially for this instrument tune ;-)

If you only want to play every kind of music - please learn the scales as well as possible! No one plays better on a different instrument only from the material... ;-/
As I stated before: It looks to be academic (for me;-).

kindly
Roman
