Mozart Concerto transposing piano?

Author: kuteclar

Good morning all,

I was wondering if anyone has ever considered an edition for the Mozart Clarinet Concerto that had a transposing piano part?

There are a multitude of editions for either clarinet in B-flat clarinet or clarinet in A and the clarinet, of course, always plays the same fingered notes - in the Key of C.

Am I crazy to think that there should be an edition with BOTH transposed piano parts included so one could either play B-flat or A clarinet from one solo? Either for when you graduate from high school (playing B-flat on the contest lists) to college and buy that A clarinet (you can continue using your same edition), or if you're teaching, you can use your well-crafted A edition for your students playing on B-flat?

One clarinet solo part and 2 transposed piano parts.

(I mean "in C" as in it's written in A major, but when played on the A clarinet, the clarinetist is playing in the key of C Major.) I'm not looking for something transposed; I'm looking for interest in having one edition that can be the sole Urtext edition for someone playing EITHER a B-flat or A clarinet.

I know of a new Urtext edition coming soon, but I have not yet convinced them of the need for the dual piano part, so I am testing the clarinet bboard waters!!!
