CLARINETS
At Heid Music we carry the clarinet and the bass clarinet. You will find Selmer, Accent, Leblanc, Buffet, Yamaha, Jupiter and Vito. Come into one of our stores, or rent online through our rent-to-own program.
FYI: The clarinet is usually made of wood and has tone holes that are covered by small metal levers. To create sound the musician blows on a flat cane reed that is attached to the mouthpiece. Clarinets are manufactured in four keys; the most common band instrument is the B-flat clarinet. This clarinet has a range of about three-and-one-half octaves.
The clarinet was invented in the early 18th century by Johann Denner and became common in orchestras by about the 1780s.
