Schubert and the clarinet

Hi everyone!

I'm doing researching on Schubert's der Hirt auf den Felsen, on how we now can play as much as Schubert wanted to have it. He never heard the piece because he died the same year he composed the pieces.

There are some questions I am thinking about, I not ask an answer of you, but I thought we could exchange some ideas about it.

Why did Schubert wrote so few works for the clarinet? And then, why did Schubert chose for the clarinet for the lied der Hirt auf der Felsen, in combination with soprano (Anna Hauptmann) and piano?

How would you play a performance of der Hirt auf der Felsen if you had to play it "as authentic as possible", without losing musicality?

Thank you :-)
