Subj: [kl] Tone hole diameter
Date: Tue, 18 May 1999 20:13:43 -0400

I have long observed that for a given model of clarinet the tone holes are
smaller on the A clarinets than the Bb's. In fact the C clarinets have
larger holes than the Bb's. [The bores on these instruments are generally
larger on the longer instruments.] Do any of you out there in Sneezyland
have the reason for this seeming irregularity?

I've cooked up an answer of my own to this question, but it's only a
theory.
