Key Count (Albert)

Author: Fuzzy

I've somehow made it through my entire clarinet life (thus far) without a clear understanding of how "keys" are counted on the clarinet. I guess, in part, it is because this was never all that important to me.

However, in conversations about Albert systems, I'm realizing the importance of knowing how many "keys" are on an instrument.

I play on an Albert which I've always classified as a "14-key" Albert...but now I'm questioning this again.

How do I accurately determine the number of "keys" on a clarinet (especially simple system/Alberts)?

Thanks!
Fuzzy
