Why is there a B-flat clarinet?
The truth actually lies in the construction of the instrument. There also exist clarinets in other keys - C, A, and Eb are most common, I think. The clarinet makes noise by vibrating the air inside with breath, and pitch is manipulated by the holes outside. Depending on how the holes are constructed, the fundamental tone (or the note of the key the instrument is constructed for) is changed. Eb clarinets have a different fundamental tone than Bb clarinets, and so forth. This affects the range it can play, because all notes other than that fundamental tone are multiples of (the frequency of) that fundamental tone. Change the fundamental tone, and you get a different set of multiples, called overtones. These overtones differentiate the clarinet keys. An A clarinet has different overtones from an Eb clarinet from a Bb clarinet and so on, and therefore a slightly different range of possible notes that can be played. Bb clarinets are most common because it fits with the usual range of most modern concert bands and compositions, but depending on the demands of the piece in question, you can have other needs that can be filled by these differently-ranged instruments. == == == ==
