What easyer the clarinet the flute or the cor anglais?
Each has its challenges, but players who play multiple woodwind instruments would probably consider the flute to be the easiest of the three to learn, followed by the clarinet. The cor anglais (english horn) is essentially an alto oboe - a double reed instrument - and is usually a second instrument for an oboist rather than a primary instrument. Double reed instruments like oboes, english horns and bassoons are considered to be quite difficult, so students interested in those instruments commonly start on another woodwind instrument, usually clarinet.
Which instrument is sometimes used by a symphony orchestra to set the pitch for the other instruments in the orchestra?
Orchestras are usually tuned to an oboe. The open note, (that is, the note an oboe plays without any fingering), is an A, and the orchestra tunes best to that note. When a piano is featured as solo instrument, the orchestra tunes to the A of the piano, because it's easier for them to adjust their pitch than for the piano.
