Gatto's idea is very good depending on your instrument's resistance and intonation. Though I haven't played it recently I have done the first part and I used the normal D fingering without having a problem. I have taught it many times as well and would always work with the student to find the best solution for them. Sometimes one of the alternate D fingers works well for someone but most often the normal D or Gatto's idea works well. The use of your breath support is all important in any case from the C to the D and back. And yes, you do want to play it softly. I wrote an article in the Clarinet journal many years ago comparing five recordings of where the players took breaths, it's amazing how different many of them were in some places. When I played in the BSO, bass clarinet, sometimes the conductor asked the principal where to breath in one or two spots but most often allowed him to breath where he wanted. Just find the most comfortable and musicial places for you.
