Why was the clarinet developed so late, relatively speaking? The early
clarinet lags behind the early oboe by several hundred years. I find this
surprising. The clarinet seems like a natural derivative from the old
recorder, much more natural a double reed arrangement.
I presume there have been innumerable masters theses on this topic. Anyone
have any pet theories?
