How was the first clarinet created?

Invented around 1690, the clarinet is a single-reed woodwind instrument with a cylindrical tube. The clarinet evolved from an earlier instrument called the chalumeau, the first true single reed instrument. Johann Christoph Denner of Nuremburg with the help of his son Jacob improved the chalumeau, creating a new instrument called the clarinet. Denner added two keys to the chalumeau and increased that instruments range by over two octaves. He also created a better mouthpiece and improved the bell (end) of the instrument. In 1843, the clarinet was further improved when Klose adapted the Boehm flute key system to the clarinet. Mozart was the first composer to use the clarinet in a symphony. http://inventors.about.com/od/cstartinventions/a/Clarinet.htm

Who made the first clarinet?

The clarinet was developed from an instrument called the Chalemeau. Johann Denner is credited with making changes to the chalemeau and developing the what we now call the clarinet. In the late 1700's many improvements were made and keys were added to the clarinet and Iwan Muller came up with a 13 keyed model that stayed in favor into the 1800's In the 1840's Klose and Buffet then adapted the fingering system of the flute to the clarinet to create the instrument we are familiar with today.
