The clarinet was invented (at least that’s what they said on the radio this morning). Not sure if that’s really true – in most cases instruments were developed gradually by tweaking and adding additional functionality to the ones that came before, but anyway it’s a good excuse to listen to some lovely music. Here’s a piece I love (although it was originally for the oboe of course – and I like that version too!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXVuYCBV_tE&t=63s Image from Pixabay
