 barrel bore affecting pitch
Author: Tony F

I have a clarinet which plays slightly flat with the barrel that came with it. I've tried different mouthpieces without much improving things, and I've tried to find a shorter barrel, so far with no success. I'm considering shortening the barrel slightly to try and improve the situation, but I'm reluctant to alter the barrel if I can avoid it. As the pitch depends to some extent on the overall volume of the barrel, would reducing the bore slightly have the same result?
