Interesting version of the Molter A major Concerto for D clarinet. He's playing the piece in A-flat major (modern pitch) on an E-flat clarinet, right?

No, it's A Major, but it is pretty low, at least according to my piano.
Aside from that, I love these concerti!

Dave: No! he is clearly playing Ab major. Notice that European orchestras use a quite higher pitch, 443 or 444. I am able to play with my clarinet quite comfortably with him without making big tuning adjustments.
If you look at his fingers you see that he is playing in the key of F major. this means: D-clarinet - G-major, eb clarinet: Ab major. So it cannot be A major. and it must be an Eb clarinet.
So Liquorice is right.
