There are many different types of clarinets. As a matter of facts, some experts consider the Clarinet family to be one of the largest, if not, the largest family of instruments. One of the most common is the soprano clarinet, with most of them being in the key of B flat, although there are some in A or other keys. Also rather common is the Bass Clarinet in the key of B flat. The bass clarinet has a range that is one octave lower than the traditional clarinet. Other types of clarinets includes the contrabass clarinet (one octave lower than the bass clarinet), the alto clarinet, and the rare piccolo clarinet.
