What was the first clarinet made of?

The clarinet was a major advancement on the earlier chalumeau. Most early instruments were made of boxwood, although some were made of ivory or other woods.Ancient instruments that used a wooden reed and that were made of bone have been reported, but they didn't include the characteristics that define a clarinet - a speaker key that causes the upper (clarion) register to sound a twelfth above the lower (chalumeau) register.


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

What bone was the first clarinet made out of?

While an ancient clarinet-like instrument made from a sheep or goat thigh bone has been found, it was not a true clarinet. It would probably be classifed as a primitive chalumeau - a shepherds instrument that lacks the clarinet's upper register. (The clarinet was developed as a modification of the chalumeau.) Primative chalumeaus were more commonly made of cane, and the few surviving baroque chalameaus were typically made from wood. The bone instrument was not typical, and was probably not the even the first chalumeau.


What was the name of the instrument that was later adapted to become the clarinet?

The "chalumeau", a recorder-like instrument, but with a reed attached to the mouthpiece.
