A musician who plays the clarinet (British spelling variant of clarinetist).
From 'clarinet' + '-ist'; the double-'t' spelling is the British English convention, following the pattern where single-syllable words ending in a vowel + consonant double the final consonant before adding a suffix.
British and American musicians spell it differently, but the meaning is the same—and interestingly, classical orchestras often favor the British spelling, showing how formal musical traditions preserve older spellings.
Alternate spelling carries same masculine-default bias as 'clarinetist'; variant spellings did not change gender encoding in historical practice.
Use gender-neutral application across all variants; avoid gendered modifiers.

Women performers across spelling variants and traditions were equally skilled and innovative; historical marginalization was linguistic and institutional, not musical.
