microtonal clarinet

Can anyone offer advice or point me to links or other resources that would
help a good clarinet player with fingerings/techniques for producing the
following scales in preparation for rehearsing a new work? : -

1/1 28/27 16/15 4/3 3/2 14/9 8/5 2/1 (Archytas Enharmonic)

1/1 9/8 7/6 4/3 3/2 14/9 7/4 2/1 (Subminor Tritriadic)

Both have middle C as 1/1.

Many thanks.

i did a thoro search and found a lot of broken links
which all pointed to the same fingering chart, for a
31-tone JI. too bad it's gone ... it probably had
what you need.

the only microtonal chart i know of that is available
now is a quarter-tone chart for the Albert clarinet:

http://www.wfg.woodwind.org/clarinet/

i just found out that 19edo does a pretty good job
of approximating both of these scales.

this might help ... my graphs show exactly which holes
are open and closed for each fingering in the lowest
register of the Boehm clarinet, measured exactly to
scale on the graph.

Thanks Monz - I'll pass this on to the clarinet player.

If memory serves Sam Torrisi is studying microtonal clarinet at
the graduate level. You out there, Sam?

I have a Spring 1990 (Vol. 1 No. 4) edition of Pitch
Magazine, which has a lot of microtonal fingerings for
the wind instruments including clarinet. I got it with
the help of Johnny Reinhard a few years ago. Maybe
that would help, if you can get your hands on a copy.

***This is one of the best things for this around. Unfortunately, it
needs editing, since some of the charts are unclear and it isn't as
comprehensive as it might be. But, at least it's a *start* and, as
usual, Johnny Reinhard is the only person doing it!

Hi Chris

that would help greatly. If anyone knows how to get a hold of a copy (from
the UK) I'd be indebted. Thanks.
