  4. Clarinet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarinet

    The low (chalumeau) register of the clarinet spans a twelfth (an octave plus a perfect fifth) before overblowing, so the clarinet needs keys/holes to produce all nineteen notes in this range. This involves more keywork than on instruments that "overblow" at the octave— oboes , flutes, bassoons , and saxophones need only twelve notes before ...

    The bass clarinet is a musical instrument of the clarinet family. Like the more common soprano B ♭ clarinet, it is usually pitched in B ♭ (meaning it is a transposing instrument on which a written C sounds as B ♭), but it plays notes an octave below the soprano B ♭ clarinet. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soprano_clarinet

    The term soprano also applies to the clarinets in A and C, and even the low G clarinet—rare in Western music but popular in the folk music of Turkey—which sounds a whole tone lower than the A. While some writers reserve a separate category of sopranino clarinets for the E ♭ and D clarinets, [ 1 ] those are generally regarded as soprano ...

  9. Boehm system (clarinet) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boehm_system_(clarinet)

    The Boehm system for the clarinet is a system of clarinet keywork, developed between 1839 and 1843 by Hyacinthe Klosé and Auguste Buffet jeune.The name is somewhat deceptive; the system was inspired by Theobald Boehm's system for the flute, but necessarily differs from it, since the clarinet overblows at the twelfth rather than the flute's octave.
