Cb Major has 7 flats not 6.... when you transpose from concert pitch to clarinet, you add 2 sharps or take away 2 flats, vice versa if youre trasposing from clarinet to concert pitch.. now I'm confused.............
*thinks hard*
OK, if the concert pitch is Cb (7 flats), you tranpose (up one step) to Db (5 flats) for clarinet. If the clarinet key is Cb, you transpose down one step to.... A or Bbb (3 sharps or... 9 flats? that cant be right..) for concert...
*thinks hard again*
if theres 6 flats in the key signature, its in Gb (not Cb). if the concert key is 6 flats, its 4 flats for clarinet - Ab. if the clarinet key is Gb (or F#), you go down 1 step, to Fb/E (8 flats or 4 sharps..)
Um, ok, to transpose from concert pitch to clarinet - take what key it's in, go up one step, thats what key youre in. If youre going from clarinet to concert, go down one step, and thats what key youre in. I know what i'm talking about, just cant find the words.....
Am I even CLOSE to right??? If anybody can even understand what i'm saying - 3 cheers for my english teacher and stream-of-thought writing.

PS - happy Easter and belated happy friday the 13th. I would have wished ya'll a happy friday the 13th yesterday, but i was busy visiting a bridge w/ some friends where some lady supposedly hung her kids and jumped in front of a train in the 40s or 50s, its supposedly haunted and scary stuff apparently happens. I definately got the crap scared of out me last night though.... LONG story...........
