I play Trumpet Flute and Clarinet and i am always being asked the same question. All three instruments have different qualities which make them harder than others so you can't really choose between them. For example the clarinet and flute can play up to G (4th ledger line). They find it easier to reach higher notes than the trumpet because the trumpeter has to have a stronger embrasure. However the trumpet only has 3 valves which a player uses in diffrent combinations to get up to C (two octaves above middle C) the flute and clarinet have many more

hope than answered your question

(p.s if anybody says otherwise there just obsessed with their instrument)

Somewhat. The Bass Clarinet sounds an octave lower than the Bb Clarinet. It is also much bigger and requires much more air, as well as a looser embrochure. There are also a couple extra keys (depending on your model) that allow you to play even lower than low E.


Why do bass clarinets play in orchestras?

Bass clarinets play in orchestras because orchestras sometimes play pieces that are scored for bass clarinet, or have bass clarinet parts in it. One example of a piece like that is The Rite Of Spring, by Igor Stravinsky. It has significant solos and duets by the bass clarinet, and "the show cannot go on" without the bass clarinet. But most pieces, do not have bass clarinet parts, so the bass clarinet is rarely seen in orchestras today.
