(Notes: Basset clarinets are played with soprano clarinet mouthpieces.  Narrow-bore basset horns are often played with soprano clarinet mouthpieces, while wide-bore basset horns are often played with alto clarinet mouthpieces.  Contra-alto and contrabass clarinet mouthpieces may or may not be interchangeable, depending on the instrument [http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/read.html?f=1&i=185306&t=185195&v=f].)
