The timbre varies in the register played. The low register is rich and reedy, the middle register can have a more open, hollow sound, good for blending and harmonizing while the high register can be quite clear and piercing. All around a versatile instrument.

A Clarinet sounds like a smoother version of a sax. If you take the brassy sound out of a Saxophone you have a clarinet sound. It can be a very very clear sound on higher notes and on lower it can be very very deep and smooth sounding.

The low notes are rich, round and can be very "reedy," the middle register fairly gentle making for good background and harmony and the high register can be brilliant and bright.

How does the length of a clarinet affect the pitch?

The longer the clarinet the lower the pitch or sound it makes. The shorter the clarinet the higher pitch it makes. The most common clarinet is a Bb (B flat) Clarinet or a bass clarinet which is longer and lower. Another common clarinet is an Eb (E flat) clarinet which makes a higher pitch or sound. As far as i know, they all have the same fingerings. The only difference is your embouchure (how you position your mouth) and the sound/pitch it produces.

What does a bass clarinet sound like?

Well first off, I have been playing the Clarinet for quite a while now, so to me it might sound different than someone who isn't in band or plays the clarinet...anyway, I think the clarinet is a beautiful instrument and produces a magnificent tone...if the player carries themselves with good posture, then this will improve the tone also. A good reed always helps too! :) Overall the clarinet is a great sounding instrument which produces a sound close to a Bass Clarinet or possibly Oboe or bassoon. mainly the bass clarinet though..hope this answers your question! :)


Why isn't your clarinet making sound?

Check the reed.
