Description
Painting of a clarinet completed in watercolor and ink.
The clarinet is a musical instrument in the woodwind family. The clarinet has a cylindrical bore and a flared bel. To play the clarinet you use a single reed to produce sound.
Clarinets comprise a family of instruments of differing sizes and pitches. The clarinet family is the largest such woodwind family, with more than a dozen types, ranging from the BB♭ contrabass to the E♭ soprano. The most common clarinet is the B♭ soprano clarinet.
German instrument maker Johann Christoph Denner is credited with inventing the clarinet in the 1600s by adding a register key to the chalumeau, which was an earlier single-reed instrument. Over time, additional keywork and the development of airtight pads were added to improve the tone and the ability to play. Today the clarinet is used in classical music, military bands, klezmer, jazz, and other styles. It is a standard fixture of the orchestra and concert band.
