Eddie Palanker might pop in, former member of the Baltimore Sym. I think he would push you in the right direction. Also retired from Peabody Institute. He most likely would suggest mastering one of the 2. I would suggest bass clarinet if you have a good teacher.

Kind of a friend, we surely know each other well is John Bruce Yeh. At the age of 19 he won the bass clarinet position with the Chicago Symphony. On youtube you can see him playing with Stanley Drucker. He's a monster player. Plays double lip too!

So Eddie would surely want you to master another instrument because you'd have a greater chance like John did with getting into a major orchestra.
