Re: quick switches between A and B-flat clarinets

It seems like the fermata between 131 and 132 and the breath mark after 168 offer opportunities to give enough extra time to make the changes if you're quick about them.

There is a recording made by Joseph Sigetti, Benny Goodman and Bartok - it's on YouTube. Goodman is playing the A clarinet part - there's a low E at 151 that you need to change if you play it on a Bb clarinet. They don't wait very long at the fermata or the breath. So I wonder how Goodman did it. Maybe he had two complete setups (with their own reeds and mouthpieces). Or his mouthpiece was just *very* well greased and he had practiced the change.
