 Re: Clarinetto?

I can’t explain where the letter combination c-l-a-r-i-n-o comes from, but it was used for the diatonic register on the baroque trumpet from the 8th partial and ascending and is the Italian word for trumpet. As I said before, the word clarinetto (eng. clarinet, ger. klarinette, jp. kurarinetu) is the diminutive form of this word meaning a small trumpet, referring to the sound of the early two-keyed clarinet and also to the fact that it could overblow, unlike the earlier chalumeau. The fact that a clarinet overblows is per definition the difference between a chalumeau and a clarinet.

Do I make myself clear enough?
