Clarinet makers

From Clarinet Wiki

Revision as of 23:59, 27 September 2011 by 72.221.73.184 (Talk)

The following are lists of makers of clarinets, clarinet mouthpieces, clarinet ligatures, and clarinet reeds. Note that some of these "makers" may in fact put their name on a product made under contract by someone else.

These lists are not meant to be exhaustive. On the contrary, many makers have been omitted deliberately. Probably others have been omitted out of ignorance.

For purposes of this page, following Shackleton:

  • Piccolo clarinet refers to instruments in A♭ and G.
  • Sopranino clarinet refers to instruments in E♭ and D.
  • Soprano clarinet refers to instruments in C, B♭, A, and G.

(Notes: Basset clarinets are played with soprano clarinet mouthpieces.

Contra-alto and contrabass clarinet mouthpieces may or may not be interchangeable, depending on the instrument [1].)
