Re: What row should the piccolo clarinet sit in?

My wind ensemble has a peculiar setup: 1st row flutes (we have six flutes and one piccolo... too many seniors this year lol), 2nd row clarinets, oboes, bass clarinets and contra-alto and bassoons, 3rd row horns and saxes, 4th row trumpets, trombones, euphs and tubas (we're only about 40 people but my director did this setup because it does good on our strengths and weaknesses). He put my friend and I who are on 1st part into the 2nd row with the other two 2nd clarinets and one 3rd clarinet because we're too loud XD
I suppose if you're not too loud it seems strange that you're all the way in the 3rd row, but if that's where your director wants you, that's where your director wants you. It's not a very far-fetched idea.
