Clarinet

no, it is part of the woodwind family.

The short answer is 'Nearly all instruments'. The piano was a comparatively late development in the world of musical instruments. The saxophone was certainly invented after the piano, also the electric guitar and all other electric instruments.

Playing the bass clarinet is not a very good way to become famous. The bass clarinet is usually played as a second or third instrument by reed men - clarinetists or saxophonists. Bass clarinet specialists include Todd Marcus, Michael Pilz and Jacob Stein.

Jazz players who used the bass as one of their primary instruments include Eric Dolphy and Benny Maupin. More famous names who occasionally played the bass clarinet include jazz clarinetist Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington's bari sax player Harry Carney, and jazz flautist Herbie Mann.

Me too - but I'm not exactly famous.

There is 4 types of clarinet, the regular clarinet is the smallest and is the most popular. The alto clarinet is curved like a saxophone and slightly deeper than the regular clarinet. The bass is shaped like the alto clarinet but is bigger and deeper still. Last but not least the contrabass clarinet is the biggest of all the clarinets, shaped like the alto and bass clarinet and it's sound is very low.

A Boosey and Hawkes clarinet with the number 162842 is about 40 years old. That serial number places the clarinet being made around 1976. Boosey and Hawkes started making instruments in 1891 and continued until 1985.

If the piece is played in the Treble Clef (it looks like a reflected "s," the & symbol or a fancy "g"), then, from the bottom to the top, each horizontal line in the staff stands for the notes EGBDF, respectively. A good mnemonic device for this is "Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge." :) The four spaces in between the lines stand for the notes FACE. Each instrument has different ways of producing a note. It's up to you to memorize how to make each sound. The black note symbols, depending on their placement and shape, tell you what sound/note to make, and the length of the sound.

This is sheet music reading in its most basic form. There are many symbols in sheet music reading, but ultimately one just has to memorize their meanings and learn to manipulate his instrument accordingly.

A reed is a small wedge of wood, or sometimes plastic, used in instruments like the saxophone, clarinet, and oboe. The reed attaches to the mouthpiece of the instrument where the player's breath causes it to vibrate while they play. These vibrations are what cause the sound to flow throughout the instrument.

Where can I get printable clarient and flute sheet music for Bellas Lullaby?

The clarinet is used in bands . such as marching band. it is a woodwind like the flute or Sax

If you've seen a clarinet, you'll know that they're very intricate, with the size of the keyholes, and the delicate keys etc. Plus, the mouthpiece would be extremely difficult to get exactly right to fit ligatures and reeds etc. You'd also have to find a case that fits your clarinet exactly. So my advice is to just buy one. Making one would not be cheaper, after all of the metal welding and wood. It'd be cheaper, easier, and more reliable to buy a clarinet off a well-known manufacturer, such as Yamaha, or Buffet Compond

Well, that depends on what you mean by popular. One popular song today is Acker Bilk's Stranger on the Shore. Here are some very popular works of the clarinet's

CLASSICAL repertoire:

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Clarinet Concerto, Clarinet Quintet

Gioachino Rossini: Introduction, Theme and Variations

Carl Maria Von Weber: Clarinet Concertino, Clarinet Concerto No. 1, Clarinet Concerto No. 2, Grand Duo Concertant

From the JAZZ repertoire:

Gershwin: Rhapsody in Blue (only the intro, but it is one of the most well known clarinet excerpts EVER)

Artie Shaw: Clarinet Concerto

pretty much anything by Benny Goodman

Jérome Thomas: Moonlight Serenade

And CONTEMPORARY repertoire (a very odd genre of music, in my opinion, but whatever floats your boat):

Donald Martino: A Set for Clarinet (arguably the hardest song written for Clarinet)

Stravinsky's Three Pieces for Clarinet

Smith's 5 pieces for Clarinet

Berio: Sequenza for Clarinet

Nielsen Clarinet Concerto (This is also considered classical, but many contemporary elements as well)

Copland Clarinet Concerto ( This has a few jazz elements, but ultimately Copland's effort to write a "Jazz Concerto" for Benny Goodman was a failure, and while it is popular, it is definitely not jazz, although it contains a few jazz and classical elements)

The serial number of a clarinet is generally located on the back of the upper joint.

Anywhere! In orchestras, in the lift, in a cafe, on the internet, in symphonies and maybe across your house there might be a guy playing one! When you go out, look for clarinet sounds with your ears.

when Taylor swift was twelve years of age she had her guitar sitting in the corner, next to her desk. One day when her tutor saw the guitar he asked Taylor if she knew how to play. Taylor said "no". Her tutor knew how and taught her to play guitar.

The clarinet is a single reed http://www.answers.com/topic/woodwind instrument. Clarinets come in many different sizes, with different pitch ranges. Though there are more than a dozen different modern clarinet types, the most common ones used in orchestras and bands are the B flat and A clarinets. The bass clarinet, which is much bigger than the standard and has an upwardly curved bell, is also frequently used in modern bands and orchestras. Other clarinets include the A flat, B flat, and E flat sopraninos, alto clarinets, contralto, and contrabass clarinets. The standard clarinet consists of five parts-the mouthpiece, the barrel or tuning socket, the upper joint, lower joint, and the bell. A thin piece of cane called a reed must be inserted in the mouthpiece before the instrument can be played. Different notes are produced as the player moves his fingers over holes and metal keys which open and close air holes in the clarinet's body. Mozart was the first compose to put clarinets in an orchestra most wooden clarinets come from Africa

ll: G-B-C-C#-D-G-G-B-B-C-B-C-C#-D-G-G-F-F-E-F-E-D-C#G-G-G--G-F-E-D-E-F-G :ll

You repeat back to the beginning each time getting faster and faster until you can go your fastest. The last 7 notes, or the notes in between the two G's (G--F-E-D-E-F--G) should be played fast like sixteenth notes. But watch your speed, if you go to fast to the point where the notes come out sloppy, the song will become unappealing after awhile.

If you go to music notes.com you can search for clarinet notes for you raise me up. it will only give you the beginning of the song, but the rest is easy to figure out by listening and matching sounds.

i think it is something like 23a 23a something rather

mine weighs about 15lb, but its thicker (which means its a higher quality)

I would stay clear of any Selmer Bundy instruments. I got a clarinet and a flute of the same make (I'm stupid) and they both were terrible. I finally have better instruments now. A buffet Festival which is a professional model. For a clarinet for a beginner though I would recommend a Buffet beginner model. Also Leblanc instruments are good too.

My friend has a selmer bundy 577. I've played it a fair bit. It's the best student clarinet tone I've ever heard and it blows very easily. Oddly, the barrel is a bit loose on most mouthpieces (except the one it comes with). After trying his, I went clarinet shopping and tried all the Bundys they had in local stores (not 577s though) and they were all very unspectacular. Since they are student models, I imagine that quality is more variable than the pro models, but, like my friend, you might just get lucky.

tones There are all types of pop such as: grape, cream soda, root beer, orange, faygo, pepsi, dr. peper, and coke.

The terms for the clarinet are basic musical terms. It actually depends what you are looking for. If you are talking about high and low, you could say up or down an octave.

Trill- when you go back and forth from two different notes at the suggested speed.

Slur- when you go from one note to another and then to another WITHOUT using your tongue to separate the notes.

There are many different scales and exercises to warm up. Most scales can be played in different octaves. The octave key is on the back above the thumb hole. to look at more terms, get a beginners book. All high school and middle school bands start with the beginners book. If you are looking for something specific let me know.

I can sometimes translate piano notes into clarinet notes. Someone I know plays piano and I can translate her songs onto my clarinet. You should try doing what I do and if that doesn't work then maybe you can just stick to listening to Adele's fantastic music without playing along. I hope I could help!
