Hello to all, another topic from me.
I am trying to understand the Bd vs C tuning on a clarinet.
I have understood that for bands the clarinet is tuned Bb instead of C. but why?
I also understood that warming up of the instrument will lengthen the instrument and therefor alter the tuning of the instrument. Does that have to doanything with it. I read and listenend quite a few referencece on the topic.but still fail to understand.
Additionally. when i play the Conmy clarinet it gives the expected Bb,slightly high according to my tuner.but that can be altered and might inprove with better room temps. (it is unfortunately quite cold again here these days)
but when playing the open G, I get a (very) high F.does this have the same reasoning as the Bb vs C.
Understanding this all would help me a lot. I will continue to read into this but since it didn't click for me yet , I don't believe it will soo. so if anyone feel they can explain it simple to me I would really appreciate it.
kind greats
Matthieu
