How do you change the notes on a clarinet?

Answer 1

One only needs to press the keys while causing the reed to vibrate by allowing air across it. Clarinet is a cylindrical bore instrument and the more holes open the higher the pitch, vice versa as the holes close the pitch is lowered.

Answer 2

By either opening or closing the different valves. ( Press down the buttons, or don't press any at all.) If you would like to play high notes, tighten your lips. For low notes, spread them apart.

Answer 3

You cover the holes with your fingers and press the keys.
