If I play F note on clarnet (or any other Bb instrument), what note would that make on piano?

Answer 1

E flat

Answer 2

Here's the trick: No matter what the instrument, when you play a C on it, it plays the note in it's name (for clarinets, that's Bb). So for Bb instruments, you transpose down a whole step. An F on your clarinet is an Eb on the piano. NOW, if you want to go the other way (that is to say, someone plays an F on the piano) you would need to play a G on your clarinet to match.

Answer 3

E flat. B flat instruments are written one step higher than actual pitch.

Answer 4

ok but the way i look at things, your right, but you can also travel down. if a scale works from say a^ it'll work opposite a dwn. or you can do what my mentor calls modulating, or jumping from 1 key to another and transposing the notes, remembering that when you can play it fwd, it'll play bckwd and be appealing. now what i get off on besides guitars cars and women(not in that order mind you) is to use a melancholy(spelling and not sure if i used it right) phrase or a bad cancelling note to throw off the harmony or working order of a chord to stop a workup to climax or decline from. but hey i suck. now my piano, i gotta b thats tuned to be anti-harmonic. when played with a like note, it cancels and harmonizes, when played as a transition note, it'll give your sound an errie distant hmm what is he doing sound.(or she.)

Answer 5

E Flat
