Re: Gold Plated Speaker Key Anyone?

Hi donald,

I posted the photo of the clarinet upper section because a single hole at the top was specifically called the "speaker key". This upper section appeared to be fairly old to me.

This caused me to wonder why one specific hole had two completely different names.

After doing a little research of very old clarinets, from the following article, it appears to me that "speaker key" was used first.

https://www.niu.edu/gbarrett/resources/development.shtml

And, believe it or not, some people do refer to the register key as the octave key.

https://music.stackexchange.com/questions/76467/strange-or-maybe-misunderstood-octave-key-behavior-bb-clarinet

https://jazzfuel.com/how-to-play-clarinet-a-beginners-guide/

Interestingly, before this thread, I never heard of the "speaker key" before.

It's always nice for me to learn something new.
