Clarinet History


           

Im having great progress on my topic i've learned things that for me as a clarinet player i didnt even know. It was so shocking when i found out there is a piccolo clarinet i mean come on its like a size of pea. It is so small its like a perfect size for me because im tiny myself. This is what it looks like!!

                                                                            This is the Picolo Clarinet its one of the smallest
clarinet in the entire clarinet family and is an octave which means same range as the normal and  known B falt clarinet. Thats what play and another interesting thing i learned like pitch wise is like a scream. So if you havent heard what is sounds like here is link if you want to listen or hear what im talking about.


I cant wait until my next blog for yall to see what im learning next plaese make sure you wath these videos or look what pictures i post they will probably influence you to get more into this topic like i am. GO BAND GEEKS!!!

how much knowledge do I have about my own clarinet history?

The Clarinet family is an instrument group that each one of them they have a different sound but correspond with each other in many different ways. So why did I choose this you ask? Or why I am intrigued on learning or exploring this task? Well I'm originally a clarinet player but also play saxophone , anyways I've been wanting to learn this for many years , but I never got a chance to find out the history or the other instruments that one day I would like to play.
    This task is a little challenging ,but not too hard for me to accomplish. Many people don't know how to read music or play an instrument so that's why I'm doing this for my assignment. So I can educate some people if they are interested on learning that they have no clue about it. So that's why I'm doing this assignment to motivate people who want to try something new they have never done before.
    I just want to be that person that helps making a difference for people like me ,yes I'm short and when I  was starting my instrument I was struggling and I could learn fast like the other kids in my class. Now I'm the top chair player cause I worked hard and gave it my best. Just by listening to other to make me know what I should do and made think if I want to learn another instrument. So ill admit it some instruments I cant play because of my height ,but that wont stop me from learning or maybe play one day. All the bad comments and people bringing me down that will only make me stronger and show that I can do things that I dream on doing in the future.




This is the complete clarinet family
