No, they do not. When a Clarinet player plays a "C" it actually sounds a "B-flat". The two instruments can play together if the clarinet part is written a whole step higher than the piano part.

In the sense that middle C on a treble clef stave on the violin is also middle C on the clarinet, yes.

However, the violin is in concert pitch (C) whereas the Clarinet is in Bb so, a B played on the clarinet will sound as a A on the violin.

No. The clarinet is a Bb transposing instrument. In a piece of music written for piano, the melody line can be played by a clarinet, but it will sound one whole tone lower than written.

For the piano to play the accompaniment, and the clarinet to play along with the piano, the clarinet line must be written one tone higher than the piano part. In books arranged for "Clarinet and piano duet", this has already been done.

No, the clarinet is a B flat instrument and must therefore raise its pitch to be on the same note as a Flute.

It depends on the range of notes. You may be able to play the melody, but not all the parts.

The notes on the clarinet and piano are the same. but of course they sound a little different and are placed on the instrument differently.

Is sheet music for the clarinet the same as sheet music for the flute?

No but it is the same as the trumpet & piano(Afgncaap8 disagrees, saying that clarinet music isdifferent from flute, and that it is the same as trumpet, but the clarinet has different music than the piano! The piano is a C instrument, whereas the typical trumpet and clarinet tend to be tuned to B-flat. However, usually the flute and the piano are both tuned to C, so their music could be the same.)


How do you play we wish you a merry Christmas claranet notes?

I'm don't entirely get your question but if I am understanding it correctly you have the clarinet sheet music for We Wish You a Merry Christmas and would like to play it on the piano. To do this, you should transpose every note in your clarinet sheet music to concert pitch, since piano is a C instrument. (Moving everything down a whole step would do the trick.) Now play your transposed piece on the piano, and the pitches should be the same as on the clarinet.
