 Re: Ab soprano clarinet

The following is a description of the instrument for those who asked. I pasted it from the site "The Clarinet Family" (http://hem.passagen.se/eriahl/clarinet.htm).

This member [of the clarinet family] is called A-flat sopranino and is the only surviving member of the piccolo group. It is mostly used in military bands in the continental Europe and in Australia. You will also find parts written for it in some clarinet choir music. LeBlanc makes the A-flat in the Boehm key system and I heard that Ripamonti in Italy makes them in both Müller and Boehm key systems. The picture to the right shows a Schwenk & Seggelke with the Oehler (Deutsch) key system

Here are the links for the pictures of the instrument:
