Re: Mozart, but no "A", ok?

I suppose Stadler and Mozart purposely chose the A resp. Bassett intruments for these pieces. I think you would enjoy the distinctly different sound of the A. Some time ago I was lucky to find a high quality full Oehler A clarinet from Schüller, a less prominent Oskar Oehler follower, in playable condition for 350 Euros, and suppose something like that ought to be possible in the Boehm scene, too (of course the real thing would be a bassett clarinet for playing the original version down to c without transposition, as they are played by Sabine Meyer or Sharon Kam...).
