Every time I play this on the flute, I almost cry

I played this solo on clarinet :) Glad to have found a recording with a clarinet doing the solo!

Beautiful Clarinet solo. You have such great tone!
-
@TheRedMicrophone probably the first time i've heard one in this song - high school bands :(
-
@iluvdehmusic if you are playing cues and they sound wrong then they are not transposed. I've had that happen.
-
beautiful flute sound :)

The score shows the Eb clarinet playing C-B-B-A, which sounds Eb-D-D-C, which is fine. In this performance, it sounds like the measure 13-14 passage is sounding Db-C-C-Bb! Not sure what led to that!

I play the Eb clarinet cues and messure 13 or so they sound off. Has anyone else played this and had the same problem?
-
i love how Holst passes that descending line through the different instruments at the end. Stunning performance.
Are you right handed or left handed?

I write left handed, but throw right handed.

That and the smile were a result of the lights being dimmed for the first few bars.
