You drown out everyone else, maybe because the mic was too close to you. However, the cellist also needs to play out more. Also, you and she are significantly out of tune with each other, her low and you high.

I'm not bothered by the way you're sitting. You're all listening well and playing together.

Your technique is smooth, but I'd like to hear a less militant sound. As Kal Opperman used to say, I want to hear the "OOOH" in the tone -- cushion and sweetness as well as strength.

Early Beethoven is as much about fun as it is about aggressiveness. It has to smile and dance. You might want to look at my posting about the finale at http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/read.html?f=1&i=75975&t=75842.

Let us know how the performance goes.
