My sound is very clear, it is never confused with a trumpet. I have a strident quality in the upper register, but in the lower register I am feeble and buzzing. I am German and I was invented by the 18th century. The clarinet family is the largest family of the woodwind instruments. There are many different types of different sizes and pitches. On this occasion we are giving attention to the bass clarinet. I am versatile and loved by jazz and classical ensembles, in chamber groups, and as solo instrument. Frankly, I am a good looking instrument! Do you want to know more about me? Please join us at our Behind the Scenes meeting on Tuesday, April 9, 2013. Our special guest? Principal Bass Clarinet with our very own DSO, Christopher Runk. Written by Aida Cortes.
