In the traditional symphony there are only 2 clarinets and maybe 1 bass clarinet!! In youth symphonies there tends to be 4 clarinets and maybe 1 bass clarinet! My question is what exactly is our purpose in the symphony. I understand that from piece to piece our role may change but over all what are we there for? They keep so few woodwinds, it makes me wonder!

The clarinets are easily heard in any orchestra - they seldom get "buried" - and have a good number of solo parts.
