Although the Boehm clarinet has a wide range of notes it has a narrow range of quality tones in harmony. I find it difficult to maintain consistant color over more than 5 or 6 notes maximum. In listening to chalemeau, Baroque and Denner clarinets i find that the harmony between notes is much wider than it is in modern clarinets.I believe that too much quality of tone has been sacrificed to the quest for broader range.If the evolution of the clarinet could be turned back at least 200 years I believe we would have many more players and much wider appreciative audiences.
Quality of tone over a wide range of notes was what impressed me most about the wood and unglazed ceramic ocarinas I heard over the past two weeks. 12 to 16 notes in harmony with each other is more than enough to satisfy me.
