Interesting comments on the angle bracket, and good advice to look at the manuscript to see what he might have meant by them. I've studied with a German and a Swiss teacher, and both mentioned that for pieces around that time, they can often indicate an emphasis as well as a diminuendo, though not as sharp an emphasis as an accent. In the 19th century, a piece that would likely be performed by prominent soloists can't really have a single "authentic" interpretation, since spontaneous expression was such a large part of the style. Somewhat like the Weber concerti; if one plays them slavishly after the Carl Baermann editions, one is sort of missing the point. One sure way of playing it inauthentically is like a museum piece, straight, cautiously, and so as not unduly to excite the audience, but people do it that way all the time. One could do worse than to ask oneself how Fischer Dieskau would have played it if he had been a clarinetist.
