Piccalo (by far) is the highest. Next comes: flute, oboe, clarinet, french horn.


Is the clarinet higher in pitch than the oboe?

No, the flute is much higher than the saxophone and gets up to higher octaves. The most equivalent instrument to it's own kind would probably be the oboe. Piccolo is the highest instrument, which is part of the flute family.


How does the length of a clarinet affect the pitch?

The longer the clarinet the lower the pitch or sound it makes. The shorter the clarinet the higher pitch it makes. The most common clarinet is a Bb (B flat) Clarinet or a bass clarinet which is longer and lower. Another common clarinet is an Eb (E flat) clarinet which makes a higher pitch or sound. As far as i know, they all have the same fingerings. The only difference is your embouchure (how you position your mouth) and the sound/pitch it produces.
