We often have Second Hand Bass Clarinets in stock. This may include instruments which belong to the shop and others which are being sold on behalf of customers on a commission basis. In either case they may be tried in the shop or, if purchased online, are subject to distance selling regulations and can be returned if they are not suitable, please see our terms.

Bass Clarinets are not the largest in a huge variety of sizes, but the Bass Clarinet is the largest in common use. Listen out for it in pieces such as the Grande Symphonie Funèbre et Triomphale, Te Deum and the opera The Trojans by Hector Berlioz. Ravel wrote for the bass clarinet in Daphnis et Chloé, La Valse, and Pictures at an Exhibition. Stravinsky used the Bass Clarinet to great effect in The Firebird, Petrushka, and particularly in The Rite of Spring.
