Hey Ken, I love the Eb clarinet, unless it's playing fff in my ear. I love playing it, especially when we do Mahlers 1st symphony and I get doubling pay for doubling on it. I've had to play Eb a dozen or so times while in the BSO for one reason or another, got a great Buffet Eb that David Weber helped me pick out as a student. I just don't like it in Beethoven, I doubt he would have used it in he's 3rd symphony myself. I learned all the Eb excerpts when I was in college and kept them under my Eb fingers for years after, just in case I wanted to audition for an assistant 1st Eb job. I also taught it when I was at Peabody. So there! ESP
