How do you describe a clarinet?

Answer 1

The terms for the Clarinet are basic musical terms. It actually depends what you are looking for. If you are talking about high and low, you could say up or down an octave.

Trill- when you go back and forth from two different notes at the suggested speed.

Slur- when you go from one note to another and then to another WITHOUT using your tongue to separate the notes.

There are many different scales and exercises to warm up. Most scales can be played in different octaves. The octave key is on the back above the thumb hole. to look at more terms, get a beginners book. All high school and middle school bands start with the beginners book. If you are looking for something specific let me know.

Answer 2

It is a woodwind instrument, usually black with silver keys and "trimmings"(like the bell has silver color on it, and the other joints). It is about the length of an arm. It has many different keys on it, one main key the back, and six main ones on the front, along with other ones that are pressed by the side of a finger, or the pinky. Many of the keys work together so you do not have to hold a lot down with one finger. It has a thumbholder on the back of the lower joint, to assist in holding the instrument.

Answer 3
