 RE: History of Eb Clarinets

The history of the Eb goes as far back as the Bb. Back in the clarinet's infancy (before modern key systems were introduced) clarinets were made in different sizes for each scale, including the Bb and Eb sizes. When key systems like Bohm were introduced around the 1800s a single clarinet could easily play more than one scale, so less sizes had to be made. Now you will most commonly find A, Bb and Eb clarinets, although other sizes still exist.
