quite possibly the instrument most closely resemblant to the human voice. has a tremendous dynamic range from a whisper to full cantabile. capable of legato and rapid passages. composers have long used the clarinet for nostalgic or tender moments in music, and its versatility unrivals anyother instrument-classical, jazz, folk...truly the biggest asset to an orchestra's wind section

Get the clarinetmug. My favorite instrument in the whole wide world to play. Has a good range, a little over 3 octaves. A Bb pitch instrument that is black with nickel or silver keys. Made of wood or plastic. A reed instument, a woodwind. Played in almost any style of music.

Student 2: "Even if they were, we wouldn't be able to hear them."

Get the clarinetmug. (Verb) The act of a white woman fellating a black man's penis, so called both because of the similarities between a black penis and a clarinet (long black and cylindrical) and the fact that traditionally homely white girls play the clarinet.
"When she told her parents she was going over to her boyfriends house to go Clarinetting, they had no idea she meant she was going to go suck her black boyfriends cock."
