 Re: Mozart Concerto transposing piano?

Paul, I admit to being lost by this above post.

We of course concur that clarinetist and orchestra (or piano if you will) have different parts. In fact, the accompanist in this piece (again ensemble or pianist), as if I need to tell you, doesn't merely follow the soloist, but plays critical role in playing back phrases and themes first introduced by the soloist.

As far as the composer's wishes are concerned, while speaking in generalities I couldn't agree more to remain true to this, but in the Mozart [clarinet concerto], who knows what he actually wanted, as witnessed by the availability of many editions of the work from famous clarinet players, each with own spin on phrasing things.

"Make any changes to the piano part,"

It's called transcribing in a different key in this case, right???.

(Maybe it's me who is missing something here.)


It's a pain to do, hence the desire (I think??) by the O.P. for alternate key versions of the work, not so much alternative interpretations of the work.

Maybe you can clarrify Paul.....I almost always understand you, irrespective of whether I concur with your sentiments or not on any given topic, but here...I'm lost.
