RE: bass clarinet

Well said, S Q, I have heard that there might be 2? bass cl's in the key of A in the US [world?] [likely oldies Alberts?], Im sure some one had a longer stick of good wood!! Brymer in "Clarinet" has a lot of good info, as does Rendall, I believe they say the proper term is TENOR clarinet, reserving BASS for the contra alto and bass as we know them. Most music I have seen is written in the treble clef, it sounds an octave below! Some orchestral pieces , I have heard, are written in bass clef, would require thought on my part to play! Love the horn, Don
