  • @xinx03ovcm As far as I know, they only exist in the key of A, and they have the same upper range as a normal A clarinet, just with the extended lower range from E to C.

    It certainly can go into the lower altissimo register, as in Mozart's Clarinet Concerto, but I wouldn't be suprised if there is a sacrifice in the tone of higher notes. This is purely speculation though, no experience.

  • Have you got Bb basset clarinet? And are the basset clarinets the same as the ordianry clarinets, except that they can play two more lower notes? I mean, because of their lengthened tube, they could sound lower in the high altissimo range...?!

  • This question is gunna be riduculus, but are those oboe fingerings?

  • Has anyone got/seen any video clips of a proper Classical period bassett clarinet or reconstruction thereof, like the ones Anthony Pay and Alan Hacker use?

  • rich tone.. i like it. what sort of reeds/mouthpiece/ligature is required?

  • smooth.

  • How much did you get your basset for?

  • @192asso The basset clarinet is pitched in A and they run for about $7000 list price I think.
