The Clarinet is a Bb instrument. That means that when a clarinet player plays a C, it would sound like a Bb on the piano. If you want to play along with piano, the clarinetist has to play 1 note higher that the piano. (or the piano has to play a whole note lower)
For the Bb clarinet it's G B flat A D. All of course the high notes, but not super high
Its the 3 fingers on top with the octave and the first 2 on the bottom.NO PINKIES ARE PLACED!

The Piccolo, Flute, Clarinet... Well, the woodwind family can be split into two groups, High and Low. High: Piccolo, Flute, Bb Clarinet, Bb Soprano Clarinet, Eb Alto clarinet, Eb Sopranino Saxophone, Bb Soprano Saxohpone, Eb Alto saxophone, and Oboe. Low: Bb Bass Clarinet, Bb Tenor Saxophone, Eb Baritone Saxophone, Bb Bass Saxophone, Eb Contrabass Saxophone, Bassoon, and Contrabassoon. Those are all i can think of at the moment.
There is no horn in the clarinet family. The term horn usually refers to the brass instrument called the french horn, although some people call their saxophones, trumpets and trombones horns, for example; "I need to grab my "horn" on the way to the gig."The soprano clarinet is a woodwind instrument in the key of Bb. there is also an Alto clarinet in Eb and a Bass clarinet in Bb. Lets not forget the tiny Eb clarinet, and the big contra bass clarinet to round out the family.I hope I helped you shed the light on your confounding question.Thank you.Edit: The Basset horn is a member of the clarinet family.
Bb isnt what you think it is it is actually B flat.
