Just yesterday I bought a new wooden Yamaha Bb clarinet. It cost a good bit of money so I was really hoping I wouldn't have any problems. As it turns out, today I put it together and played it for the first time, and what happened? My bell got stuck.

to put oon my clarinet to MAKE a saxonette.
Sorry, but no. The clarinet and saxonette are in the same family, but are still different instruments built in different keys. Their parts wouldn't interchange well.
I see part leather ligatures that I think are supposed to give a more mellow concert tone.
There are a lot of factors that effect tone in a clarinet... the mouthpiece, reed, ligature, a person's embouchure, and the clarinet itself.

A sci-fi score for a silent classic
Early a century after its release, the long-lost uncut version of Fritz Lang's silent classic, Metropolis , will close Montreal's Fantasia Film Festival with a contemporary twist: Its intense score will be replaced with a leaner, experimental piece penned by local composer Gabriel Thibaudeau.
“I really see this film as the first work of science fiction. It is the forebear of Alien and Star Trek . I will try to give it some of that colour,” Thibaudeau said recently in a phone interview from Bologna, Italy, where he was attending the annual Cinema Ritrovato, or Cinema Rediscovered rare-film festival. “The original music for Metropolis was very heavy and operatic. But I have a different approach. There will be no Mozart in this piece,” says Thibaudeau. “I want the music to connect to people.”
Featuring more than 25 minutes of new material recovered from a Buenos Aires archive in 2008 –film buffs refer to the longer version as the Complete Metropolis– Lang's expressionist vision of a futuristic city will unfold as Thibaudeau conducts 13 musicians.
