From: "Roger J. Shilcock" <mlfl@-----.UK> Subj: Clarinette d'amour Date: Sat, 15 Oct 1994 06:29:58 -0400
The clarinette d'amour was in G and its lowest note was written E - sounding B
on the 2nd line up in the bass clef. Hence, it would presumably have been
slightly longer than a C basset clarinet and slightly shorter than a B flat
specimen. The different key sets would have been distinctive to One Who Knew;
also, the spacing of the holes would have been wider.
