Woodwind Instruments

When playing the clarinet, there should only be one reed on the mouthpiece at one time. However, you should always carry a spare in case the one you are using gets damaged.

There is only ONE reed on the mouthpiece! ALWAYS carry a spare one in case the other reed breaks what kind of question is that?

The hard way: have someone sing the song over and over, while you figure it out one note at a time.

The easy way: buy a book of children's songs that includes the sheet music to them, and read the music.

No. Neither "Smith" nor "Smith Royal" are listed brands for musical instruments. The only reference to the allegedly prized woodwind is in the movie "Merry Christmas Drake and Josh" (Dec. 2008), a Nickolodeon Original Movie starring Drake Bell and Josh Peck.

A pad saver is a long, soft, brush-like "wick" or "mop" that is inserted into the clarinet. The marketing idea behind this product is that the pad saver will wick-off moisture and prevent it from accumulating on and damaging the pads. Unfortunately, this doesn't always work as well as advertised and might even cause problems -- and bad odors too. This isn't from poor design but from poor maintenance on the part of the user, that is, using the pad saver only and not bothering to remove most of the moisture with a swab first.

It is usually enough to run a clean silk swab through the clarinet (and mouthpiece) right after using it. When arriving home open up the case and let the clarinet (and case) air out for a while. Of course, be careful of sudden temperature changes if it is a wood clarinet.

If you decide on using pad savers be sure to use them in conjunction with a good quality (preferably silk) swab first. And be sure to wash them (and the swab too) often, begin careful to let them dry completely before putting them back in service.

The piano has a total of 88 keys (52 white keys and 36 black keys).

The name oboe is from the French word "hautbois", meaning "high-wood" or "loud-wood". Invented in the Middle Ages, it was played by huntsmen and shepherds, until it was finally admitted into orchestras in France in 1657. In the 1700's, the sound was still abrasive and the instrument extremely difficult to play. Many improvements were made between then and the oboe of today. The oboe has been very popular in orchestras for the last 300 years, and has been written into most orchestral music.

The oboe is the soprano of the double-reed woodwinds. The sound is produced the same way as the flute, which is by forcing a column of air to vibrate (though it certainly doesn't sound like a flute!). If you happen to be an oboist or a bassoon player, you would spend a lot of your time making reeds. Most oboists make their own reeds, using actual reeds from the wall of a cane stalk. Talk about low tech! Actually, it's a tricky piece of work to get the reed to the exact degree of slenderness. The best oboists say it takes years to learn to make them properly. Symphony oboists have several on hand during a concert, changing when needed during the concert. Players of other instruments in the orchestra have teasingly said that playing an oboe would drive the player insane. Oboists denied this; instead they say that it's insane to choose to play the oboe!

The orchestral oboe looks similar to a clarinet, with a slightly shorter tube. It is approx. 23" long. While it is excellent at making lively, happy music, it is usually used for parts that are melancholy, mysterious and sad. Within the orchestra, it produces the sound most similar to a human voice.

The English horn (also called cor anglais) is very similar to an oboe. It is neither English, nor a horn! The end of an oboe flares out, whereas an English horn has a small bulb. Its double reed attaches to a curved mouthpiece (instead of directly to the instrument, like an oboe). Its size is larger than an oboe, as well as 1-1/2 times the length of an oboe. It does have the exact same fingering, so an oboist can double as an English horn player when needed. The English horn has an alto voice, with a richer, deeper tone.

It is difficult to say which is the easiest to learn. While the flute requires one to use their mouth and the air they blow to hit the right notes, the clarinet uses a reed, which can be difficult to learn how to use properrly, and it still requires the proper air to make the notes.

Both require learning the proper finger positions for each note, so they are equal on that level.

While some believe it takes much longer to learn the flute, it actually takes about the same amount of time to learn either instrument. Learning either one depends on the person and how much effort they are prepared to put into learning the instrument. Also, one may be easier than the other for a particular individual.

There are 8 keys on an oboe.

The single-reed and double-reed, that's if you're talking about woodwind instruments.

It is hard to determine when the pan flute was invented. It is one of the earliest and most primitive instruments ever recorded. Only percussion instruments preceded it. Archaeological excavations have found Viking records and pictures displaying panpipes dating from the 10th century. You can also find evidence in museums around the world of pan flutes from the Pre- Columbian Period, dating from between 300 and 1500 AD.

The biggest/lowest instrument in the standard woodwind family (meaning it is used in most orchestral scores) has to be the Contra-Bassoon, or the Double Bassoon as they call it in some countries. The absolute largest instrument in the woodwind family is the Contrabass Saxophone in Eb. It's lowest note, a written low B-Flat on the treble clef, sounds two octaves and an major sixth below a concert B-Flat pitch, and stands 6'4 (1.9m) tall and 45 pounds in weight.

Edit: The highest note possible is an A above high C; or 4 ledger lines above the staff. In most of the common repetoire, however, oboes rarely play anything above the D above the staff.

If you are referring to the brass instrument, it sounds most like the trombone. If you meant the baritone SAX, it depends on the players tone. Personally, I can make mine sound like a bassoon or a bass clarinet at my pleasure, but some people can give the bari a unique sound.

Its Lisa and its a saxophone.

Besides common music stores in your area, there are a lot of online sheet music shops where you can get both digital and hard copies of what you need.

Most of the online store are retailers of traditional publishers (JWPepper or Sheetmusicplus, e.g.).

However, there are also platforms where composers and arrangers sell their music with performing licenses directly to performers.

Clarinet FOR SURE!! I play clarinet and I know it is 1. The easiest. 2. It has a very wide range. 3. You can transpose it very easily. And you can use trumpet sheet music if necessary. IF you really enjoy playing clarinet, I suggest trying bass clarinet. It is a very easy switch. So I think the clarinet is your best choice.
