Krommer Cto for 2 clarinets op.35

Author: Ed Lowry

In measure 50 of the Rondo, the Musica Rara edition has a flat sign in parenthesis above the G natural [G5]

at the end of each sextuplet in the Solo Clarinet II part. It doesn't appear to have been explained in the notes to this edition. It's not in the IMSLP version from what seems to be the late 19th or early 20th century edition.

It does not sound appropriate to me -- a G natural "sounds" better to me. Can anyone offer insight to this apparent change?

Thanks for the help.

Hi there. Me and my classmate are curently working on the same concerto and our proffesor is the principal clarinetist of Sloveninan RTV Symphonic orchestra and they played it last year and aperantly the flat g is correct. It does sound a bit unlikely since the concerto is fully clasical... I have the same edition as you though the Breitkopf and Hartel (Musica Rara) but I have also checked in our school library and they have a older edition and it is written with a g flat as well... the IMSLP one does have natural G but to me I think the g flat does fit in.
