Re: To Bb or not to Bb

I've played it on both clarinets at different times. Although I believe it was written for the A clarinet in it's original form I don't see a problem playing it on either. When I've played recitals and was not using my A for any other work I'd perform the Schumann on the Bb. At other times I played it on the A. Although there is a slight difference in the tone quality of both instruments I doubt that anyone in the audience ever noticed. Do what you want, you won't get struck down.
