Transposing an Eb to Bb part is a problem because you have to play a 5th higher so you will be playing in the stratosphere on your Bb. The reason for writing an Eb part in the first place is to have the high notes as well as the timbre of the Eb.
It is a difficult instrument to play well because of intonation. Since it is a smaller instrument the notes are closer together making it more difficult to play in tune. It is said that the Eb has to be played with your ears. Usually when the Eb is used it is a solo instrument. Sometimes for color but often as a solo instrument too. Just so you know, every major orchestra has a clarinet player that plays the Eb clarinet. ESP http://eddiesclarinet.com
