Clarinet

yes, there are 7 ways to play the c on the clarinet

You don't. Unless something is broken. If so, leave that to the professionals.

It depends on the notes around it. If the notes before and after it have stem extending down, the stem would go down or vice versa.

Very large. The clarinet can play pianissimo (very soft) or fortissimo (very loud). It's said the clarinet has a very wide dynamic range.

used ones from $150 to $400s in good conditions

After practicing on the clarinet, when you push air through your instrument, especially in the extreme range and on a new reed, your instrument may squeak, but not because of bad technique (your tones are clear and precise otherwise). When this happens you should get a harder reed, and if you can't get harder reeds (your already on a 4) then you could think about a larger mouth piece (they come in 7 sizes and 1-3 is for beginners, 4-5 for intermediate and 6 and 7 for professionals.

(edit)

When you decide that you want/need a harder reed, I would highly recommend that, instead of jumping straight from a 3 to a 4, you go for the middle and get 3 1/2 reeds instead. 4's are immensely stronger than 3's and the likelihood of a person being able to make that jump is slim to none.

(/edit)

To make the tone of a B flat better, open the throat as wide as possible. Or purchase a new ligature to vibrate the reed differently (a leather Rovner or Vandoren Optimum). Also, press down on the keys of the right hand to bring the pitch down.

The invention of gunpowder by the Chinese in the 9th century allowed for warfare to be carried to a greater distance (via the use of rockets, what today we would call fireworks).

The addition of a metal tube propelling a slug at high velocity (muskets, cannon and rifles) gave the individual soldier the ability to strike at the enemy more quickly and accurately, while doing greater damage as well. (Prior to this, soldiers needed to use weapons such as bows and slings, which required a great deal of both strength and skill to operate successfully.)

As with almost all military technologies, this eventually led to the development of counter-strategies, including iron-walled vehicles and ships, foxholes (long protective trenches) and body armor. It even gave rise (for example) to the modern spread-out city with its surrounding suburbs, by rendering the protective stone walls of the Middle Ages almost useless.

In short, the development of long-range warfare spurred the advancement of science, leading (directly and indirectly) to many of today's modern conveniences. And by affecting which side won a given battle, it defined the countries and political systems of the world as we know it today.

it means a nobleman and a brave warrior!!!! also, it means a funny, cool, sometimes short tempered person...... e.g a boy from qecc :D

Clarinet reeds come from cane.

The majority of clarinets used by professionals are made from the hardwoods grenadilla or mpingo - both originating in Africa. However, clarinets sold in stores are often made from rubber, plastic or even metal.

yes, this is actually a compression release spring, very needed part.

There are many well known compositions, but undoubtedly the most famous is the Mozart Clarinet Concerto. Some other well known works include the Weber Concertos, Premiere Rhapsody by Debussy, and Stravinsky's Three Pieces for Clarinet. I also really enjoy the Krommer double clarinet concertos.

The only difference is metal bell ring at the large end of the bell. B12 has it, B10 doesn't.

Take the upper octave fingerings of the B flat clarinet (D in the staff to a D above the staff) and they produce the same notes on the tenor saxophone. On tenor saxophone, you would use the same fingerings for notes regardless of which octave you are in (for example: a D in the staff is the same fingering as a D below the staff) either adding the octave key to make the note higher or lower. The only inconsistencies with no relation between clarinet and tenor are the fingerings for C (middle key in the left hand on tenor) and C sharp (no keys down on tenor) Notes in the octave above the staff are different from clarinet to tenor as well.

A new Buffet R13 clarinet retails around $4,000 and higher. One may find a used Buffet R13 clarinet for just under $2,000 up to $3,000. There are a few different models of Buffet R13 clarinets. The price will vary by model.

The standard clarinet and most common clarinet has 17 keys, there are more advance ones that can have up to 22 keys (maybe more if it's a prototype).

The iceman from 5300 years ago is important because he is the oldest known person with a tattoo. They discovered that his simple tattoos were in the same locations used to acupuncture today. So they believe that he was tattooed for medical reasons rather than personal, religious or fashionable reasons. They named him Otzi because he was found in a frozen glacier in the Otztaler Alps.

Not only was his simple tattoos important it was also that he was the oldest mummy found from 5,300 years ago.

he was believed to be from about 3300 B.C.

he was found by 2 German tourists named Helmut and Erica Simon

You're Artley was produced in 2000, it's a student model b-flat clarinet. It could be wood or copmposite plastic, you can tell by the texture of the intstrument. Plastic is smooth and shiny, wood has a grain to it. Hope this helps!!

Your best bet in assessing the instrument's value is to find a reputable dealer or repair technician. Some things they will look at include the age of the instrument, how well it has been cared for. Other considerations are the condition of the pads and corks and how worn the keys are.

It will depend upon whether it is a simple (Albert) system or Boehm and the condition.

Yes. It is also much easier to find music for the b flat clarinet.
