The Clarinet is a single reed woodwindinstrument. Clarinets come in many different sizes, with different pitch ranges. Though there are more than a dozen different modern clarinet types, the most common ones used in orchestras and bands are the B flat and A clarinets. The Bass Clarinet, which is much bigger than the standard and has an upwardly curved bell, is also frequently used in modern bands and orchestras. Other clarinets include the A flat, B flat, and E flat sopraninos, alto clarinets, contralto, and contrabass clarinets. The standard clarinet consists of five parts-the mouthpiece, the barrel or tuning socket, the upper joint, lower joint, and the bell. A thin piece of cane called a reed must be inserted in the mouthpiece before the instrument can be played. Different notes are produced as the player moves his fingers over holes and metal keys which open and close air holes in the clarinet's body.
It is a very clever instrument generally made form wood and it comes in dark blue, grey brown and black.
The notes on the clarinet are also the same as the Bass Clarinet. The lowest note on the clarinet E --- bass clarinet is Eb.

What kind of clarinets are in the orchestra?
Always: Bb soprano clarinets and Bass clarinets, sometimes: Soprano A and Eb clarinets, very rarely: other varieties of clarinet (piccolo clarinet, basset horn, basset clarinet, contra alto/contrabass, alto clarinet, etc.)Bb soprano clarinets (the common clarinet) and bass clarinets are always used in orchestras and bands. Orchestra music (bands not as commonly, but still sometimes) frequently call for soprano A and soprano Eb clarinets, so usually Bb players learn an alternate clarinet and play it when they're not playing the normal Bb part. Other kinds of clarinets, such as basset clarinet, tenor clarinet, and basset horn, are rarely used (not never used, just not nearly as commonly.) Alto clarinets are used much more frequently in bands than in orchestras.
