Well, if you can't play Clarinet, and you want to play almost any song, I suggest getting a Stewart's Music clarinet music book. it will tell you fingerings, song and history about it. it is not expensive, and useful. (also, you will need a clarinet.!)
Concert pitch or instrument pitch? The dominant 7th in the key of A is E G# B D, but that's concert pitch. If the orchestra is in A, the clarinet is in B, and the dominant 7th would be F# A# C# E.
You can transpose flute music for clarinet music. Flute is on concert pitch, most clarinets are not. Example: A flute's Bb is a clarinet's C. Bb= B flat
it can get to a high-squeeky pitch which will be the highest note on the clarinet. but you need to remember that the clarinet is a low/high instruments so dont think of it just as a high instrument. and vise versa. also if your looking for any good clarinet music try either Northridge Overture of Lating Holiday. HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL! :) It is a trransposing instrument so it's written pitch is one tone higher than what you hear (concert pitch)! So... It goes from the E below middle C (written pitch) = D below middle C (concert pitch) Up To (depending on the clarinet) the A nearly 3 octaves above middle C (written pitch) = B nearly 3octaves above middle C (concert pitch!) Hope that helps - this site shows it as well! http://www.woodwind.org/clarinet/Study/FingeringCharts/bbfinger.html
The general "tuning" note for band is a concert B flat. For a B flat clarinet, this concert pitch is C. For example, when a conductor states "Play a concert B flat," a clarinetist would play the note C. Also, since the clarinet is a B flat instrument, in most cases, any note will be notated a whole step higher than concert pitch.
The clarinet is a single reed instrument. Most clarinets are tuned in B-flat and are transposing instruments, playing a tone lower than written.
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.
The Bass Clarinet should have the lowest pitch.. or if not the Bassoon
It depends how you mean:If you mean when the instrument is playing a concert pitch A then some sound the same as other and would be in groups:Piccolo,Flute, clarinet and oboeBassoonIf you mean their pitch range for their highest note:Piccolo,Flute,Oboe,Clarinet,BassoonPitch for their lowest note:Piccolo,Flute,Oboe,Clarinet,Bassoon(this is only using the most simple of woodwind instruments)
The Clarinet Is both pitches it depends how you blow it
The contrabassoon and contrabass clarinet act as the lowest voices of the woodwind ensemble. The Guinness Book of World Records lists the octocontrabass clarinet as having the lowest range of any orchestral instrument, capable of playing B♭-1 concert pitch (the B♭ below the lowest note of the piano).
It's not the bass clarinet.The octocontrabass clarinet (also known as octo contrabass clarinet, octo contra bass clarinet, or subcontra bass clarinet) is the largest and lowest member of the clarinet family. It is pitched an octave below the contrabass clarinet, or three octaves lower than the standard B♭ soprano clarinet.The Guinness Book of World Records lists the octocontrabass clarinet as having the lowest range of any orchestral instrument, capable of playing B♭-1 concert pitch (the B♭ below the lowest note of the piano).
it doesn't a clarinet is of a lower pitch than a flute
