For the lower C you hold down the thumb and first three fingers of your left hand. For the lowest clarion C you hold down the first three fingers and thumb of your left hand and your first three fingers of your right hand down+register key+ pinkie of right hand on the key you would use to play a low F. To play the highest clarion C you only use your thumb and register key. But this is for a Bb saprano Clarinet.

If you can explain this better please improve this answer.

How should tenor saxophone player play when told to play in b flat by an organ player?

Since a tenor sax is a B-flat instrument, I believe this means to play the music as written. When the musician plays a C as written, it will come out as a B-Flat. If the player was asked to play in C (or sometimes called 'concert'), then he would need to transpose each note up one whole step, so that if he played a D, then a C would come out. If a score is available, the player can look at the other parts (either the voice parts or the organ part) to see what key they are written in. Example if the organ part is keyed in C (no sharps or flats), then the Tenor Sax's part would be written in key of D (2 sharps: F# and C#). If the organ part is written in B-flat (2 flats: B-flat & E-flat), then the sax part is written in C (no sharps or flats).
