i did some research on it and i cant find it on any websites i believe it does not exist but you can try decoding it i believe it starts with ( G-D-G-D) i also heard of people using Windows Media Player, which allows slowing the song down a lot like to .5 of the tempo or something crazy like that it's a pretty good tool to use so i strongly suggest it. Srry i cant find it and good luck

I have a Evette-Buffet silver flute serial # 562299...it they anyway to get history on this instrument?

Please help m in this. thanks

Conn makes a lot of different models. The 50M is an upper-level student horn. It's American made, and much better than Conn's later student models. Truth be told, it's not really a Conn. It's a Vito with Conn engraving. Vito horns are based on Beaugnier French saxophones, and area good design. If you're looking for a solid student horn, the 50M is a good choice.

The bassoon is a musical instrument in the woodwind family. It is the lowest, or bass, voice in the woodwind choir. It often duplicates the cello voice in orchestral compositions.

Q Shouldnt the lion sleep to night note be on a staff because I dont no the notes?

Wow, well this answer would take a while lol, look at it like this, there are 26 keys on an Alto Sax, the six keys you will most likely (depending on what your playing) be using, are the keys your fingers should be on when holding the sax. The top key alone, is a (B), if you play the next one along with the top key, you play an (A), and holding down all three keys, you will play a (G). Very bery basic notes, without a doubt used in almost every piece written. Then the bottom 3, no matter which bottom key you need to press, the 3 keys we just talked about, ALL need to be held down, the first key on the bottom, along with the top 3, will give you an (F), now holding down the second key, along with the first one, and the three on top, will give you an (E), and finally holding down the last key along with the first two keys and the three on top will give you a (D). Now while there are many many more notes out there for the alto, there are too many to type out like this because some of them require more complex detail, if you want to know more, go on the internet, and look up Alto Saxophone Fingering Charts, they have every note on a sax, on that chart. Hope this helped.

Well, most saxophones (depending on the color) can range from 200-5000 depending on where you get it. I got my black/gold Tenor saxophone off of eBay for only $350 and it was brand new. Look online more than in the stores, it's way cheaper.

The primary difference between the Bb soprano saxophone and the Bb soprano clarinet (to choose equivalent members of their families) comes from the fact that the clarinet has a cylindrical bore and overblows a 12th (octave plus a fifth) while the saxophone overblows by an octave.

This means that the saxophone's second octave fingers like the first octave, while the clarinet needs extra keys to get the first four notes of the second octave!

There are other differences (for instance, the clarinet has a very large number of little-finger keys used for alternate fingerings, making it possible to play passages more smoothly which otherwise would be viciously hard to play at all.) But this is the fundamental difference between them.

( added on ) i don't know much about clarinets but I'm going to use this as an example. to play the same tone of another instrument you have different notes. For example. concert G would be A natural for saxaphones but a C for a horn

"Clarinet" actually comes from the French word, "clarionette", or "little trumpet". This has to do with the size of the clarinet as well as the sounds and tone of its higher notes.

Look at a clarinet and you might eventually figure it out.

over all the piccolo is one octave higher then the flute. Which means that the piccolo is higher but sometimes in band pieces the piccolo part is one octave down then the flute part so the piccolo will be playing in the same octave but most of the time the piccolo part will be one octave up from the flute for as example if a person plays a low b flat on the flute and an other person played the low b flat on the piccolo there will be an octave difference I hope this makes sense to you.

Both instruments create their sound by virtue of a vibrating string.

G, C (high), G, C (low), G, C (high), G, C (high), E, D, C, B, A G, C (high), G, C (low), G, C (high), G, C (high), A, G, F, E, D C (low)

Your might be thinking about "Lily Was Here". Guitarist Dave Stewart was famous for making music with his wife Annie Lennox in the Eurythmics. On "Lille Was Here" he teamed up with saxophonist Candy Dulfer. It is a great instrumental tune for the early 90's.

it is really a matter of opinion, the situation, and your level of experiance. for example, I am a high school student that has been playing for six years. my favorite brand is vandoren. Rico are very good reed for beginners. the strength is situational. you want to use a heavier reed, prabably a 3 for marching band and jazz. for concert band, use a lighter reed like a 2 1/2. the lighter you go, the harder it is to produce a nice sound, but the easier it is to play. so as you become more experienced start experimenting with different reed strengths to see which you prefer. For marching, many prefer plastic reeds, for you do not have to keep them wet, and they do not freeze, but it it very hard to produce a quality sound on these, and they take a slight altering of play-style.

Selmer, Accent, Yamaha those are just a few but there are many more out there. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the previous person who replied stated, this question could have many answers, depending on who you are speaking to.

However, I have played about ten different Buffet clarinets and I've always found them to be slightly out of tune with the orchestra. Also, the left-handed F#/E and C#/B keys are made with generally faulty plastic tenons that have been known to break during performances . The best point of the Buffet-Crampon company is their push to adverstise everywhere.

Selmers are good, but I have had minimal experience with them. (I find their saxes much nicer than their clarinets.)

Probably the best producers of modern clarinets, for various musical purposes, is Leblanc. Leblanc has been making professional instruments for well over two-hundred fifty years, and their line of beauties continues still to be played by over two-thousand professional clarinetists in the USA. The F#/E and C#/B key tenons are made of metal, and only under extreme use or savage abuse have been known to break. They are always in tune, and their playability and tonal qualities are virtually unequaled. Even their student line clarinets, Vito, is much better than the student models of Buffet, such as the E11.

To add to all of this (by Taxijazz.com)... as a general rule of reference Buffet, LeBlanc, and Selmer might be considered "the best", but it depends upon which model within these brands, and it is also important to consider what you want the clarinet for, e.g. Buffet is better for ensemble, and Selmer may be prefered by a soloist--given that we are talking about pro models. Some jazz players might find an old hard rubber Conn to be their favorite, and for jazz players it might be noted that Benny Goodmans favorite clarinet was a Selmer Centered Tone, and Artie Shaw recorded in 1938 on a Conn 444. This opens a whole area for exploration because 'the best' clarinet for you may be an antique, and in that arena you might find an ancient Penzel-Mueller, an Evette & Schaeffer, or even a good metal clarinet that suits your needs. After you decide what the best clarinet is then you might want to ask what the best mouthpiece is, because that will make a big difference in how your clarinet performs.

It depends on whether you are in a concert band or a marching band. If you are in a concert band I would go with a Buffet. If you are in a marching band I would go with Yamaha. And the clarinet isn't the only important part. You also need to have good reeds to play with. I would suggest the Vandoren V12 or the Michel Laurie Premiums. If you are a beginer I would go with a 2 1/2 or a 3 Vandoren V12 or a 3 Michel Laurie Permium. Whatever you do, don't get Rico. I have found that they always break during performances and I have to fake it, and god forbid I have a solo because then I will embarass myself like never before. And also, instead of the regular ligature that will come with the clarinet ask for a Rovner Ligature instead. They tend to last longer and I never have the issue with them coming undone, unlike the normal ligature.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Like the people above I have a different opinion. The best clarinet makers out there are yes Buffet, Leblanc, Yamaha, and Selmer. There is no "better" choice for brands. Clarinets of the same brand and model also vary greatly, so trying a lot of clarinets will generally get you a great clarinet.

Out of the four I went with Buffet. I bought a Buffet Tosca which I tried out of 12 clarinets. Some of them played amazingly, some were pretty good, but there was one that really sucked compared to the others. So the point is you HAVE TO TRY before you buy. Especially when we are talking about Buffet. Their clarinets have various inconsistencies. If your looking for something cheaper, the R13 is always a great buy. However, DO NOT GO WITH BUFFET IF YOU ARE GETTING A CHEAP PLASTIC CLARINET

Leblanc is a lot more consistent in the making of their clarinets. If you are looking for something in a tight budget, the Bliss line is a great buy. I've picked it up before and I can play at the level I'm used to playing my Tosca. It also has a warm, rich tone that you can usually only find in wooden instruments.

Yamaha's custom clarinet are VERY consistent. They have a rich tone and their keywork is very good. Out of 5 custom's I tried, they almost played identically. The price is also very reasonable for such a great clarinet.

I have not really tried Selmer clarinets but I hear they are okay. I haven't really met anyone who plays on one however, unless it was a cheap plastic one that doesn't play very well.

As for reeds, I disagree with the person above. The Rico Reserve, Rico Grand Concert Select Evolution, and Grand Concert Select Thick Blank and very good. But the Vandorens and Gonzalez reeds are also very nice.

As for ligatures, I absolutely HATE the leather ones like the Rovner. The sound produced is very muffled and I would much rather prefer a ligature like the Vandoren Optimum.

Well this is pretty much it, also as something else added, the mouthpiece is also very important.

Go with a Vandoren if you are starting out. Remember to always try the mouthpieces before you buy it. Even though they are machine made, there are still inconsistencies.

As you progress, you may want to switch to a hand crafted mouthpiece.

There are many great makers out there such as Brad Behn, Clark W Fobes, Walter Grabner, and Richard Hawkins.

Good luck!

The best ones I know are Noblet Leblanco because it has a really good case to carry around, has a rich tone, and very good quality.

Also the other best one is Yamaha. It has a good tone, good sound, awesome quality, and Yamaha is very easy to play than other brands. Because, they are easy to blow on, two they are more comfortable to blow on.

There are other brands but I recommend these two.

___________________

I have a different opinion. Really, it all depends on you, but to me Leblanc Vito is the best for students but if you're a pro I'd go with Buffet.

Also, Mitchell Lurie reeds are the best (I believe they're a brand of Rico).

Leblanc Vito: Great sound, always in tune. Works well with Mitchell Lurie.

Buffet: Great sound, always in tune. Works well with Mitchell Lurie.

Oboe reeds last about three to ten weeks if you take care of them, but they do break very easily. Also, I'm pretty sure it depends on the brand and hardness of the reed.

Oboe reeds last only 6-10 hours if cared for properly (not chipped)

It looks like a hybrid of the Clarinet and A Saxophone.

U really dont want to know

If you mean what would a clarinet in 1950 compare in cost in today's dollar, look here:

http://www.bls.gov/data/inflation_calculator.htm

If you mean what is a 1950's clarinet worth today then the question becomes what make, model and in what condition?

The first saxophone was created by Antoine-Joseph (Adolphe) Sax in 1841. The first saxophone is what is commonly called a barri saxophone today. In the end there was 14 variations of a saxophone. Mr. Sax also created the baritone and the saxhorn that did not catch on to music. His orinal goal to replace orchestra instruments did not happen.

There is no set number. It can vary from 3 to 30.

There are no "jazz instruments."

You can find jazz pieces written for almost any instrument, including trumpets, saxophones, trombones, flutes, clarinets, piano, string bass, vocal parts, etc.
