Tips/Feedback on my solo

Hi all,

Last Wednesday we had our winter concert and played Holst's First Suite in E Flat. I had the honor of being able to play the clarinet solo in the 2nd movement of it, and since our band might take this piece to competition/festivals later on in our school year, I wanted to get some feedback on my solo.

Here's the link to it, recorded by my friend on his camera. The link should take you to where my solo is, which is near the 6 minute mark:

Please give me any advice on how to improve it! Don't worry I won't be offended, so feel free to go into details and cover every aspect of my playing. Just wanted to hear from the opinions of all you wonderful clarinetists out there. I know, for example, that my open G was flat compared to the flutist's concert F an octave higher.

Thanks guys! (Oh and be sure to check out the balloon "solo" at 10:50. Completely by accident that a balloon floated onto the stage)
