 Pitch of Albert "C" Clarinet ?
Author: Mary Jo

In the recent "why C?" thread, the length of a low-pitch C clarinet is said to be 50.5 CM without a mouthpiece.
I'd be grateful if any of the experts on this forum could tell me the pitch of an old Albert System clarinet I have, which is approximately 50 CM in length without the mouthpiece. I'm guessing that would make mine high pitch?
Another related question concerns the mouthpiece, which has a smaller bore than a Bb mouthpiece ("bore" in this case meaning the part that goes in the barrel). Is this smaller mouthpiece a characteristic of high pitched C clarinets?
Thank you for your assistance.
