A clarinet is a common musical instrument.{{Todo|improve synopsis}}

== Timbre ==

Notably, the [[timbre]] of a clarinet emphasizes [[odd harmonic]]s.<ref>Wolfe, Joe. [https://www.phys.unsw.edu.au/jw/clarinetacoustics.html "Clarinet acoustics: an introduction"]. ''The University New South Wales''. https://www.phys.unsw.edu.au/jw/clarinetacoustics.html. Retrieved 3/15/2026. </ref> As such, [[EDT|tritave-based systems]], such as the [[Bohlen–Pierce scale]], are suitable for use with a clarinet timbre.

== Microtonal fingerings for normal clarinet ==

[[Quartertone]] cross fingerings are widespread (and apparently standard technique in French orchestral playing today), but certain pitches right above the break have no fingerings.

Line 25:

Several compositions have been written for Bohlen–Pierce clarinets: by Canadian composers [[Owen Bloomfield]] and [[Todd Harrop]]; as well as by German composers Georg Hajdu, [[Peter Michael Hamel]], [[Sascha Lino Lemke]], [[Fredrik Schwenk]], and [[Manfred Stahnke]]. Links to the former composers' audio streams can be found on http://www.transpectra.org/audio.html; and links to the latter composers' audio streams can be found on http://mmm.hfmt-hamburg.de/index.php?id=konzert-programm_1362008.
