Its the same for all instruments...just written in concert pitch. So, as clarinet is in B flat, you will have to take these a step up. Remember, the circle of 5ths is the same as the order of flats. It is called the circle of fifths because each of the pitches are a fifth apart (big surprise lol). Just remember, bead greatest common factor. That means b flat, e flat, a flat, d flat, g flat, c flat, f flat. The order of sharps is just reversed (and sharped).

Hope this helped.

Circle of 5ths: starting on C then go up a 5th - regardless of instrument .
C up a 5th to G
G up a 5th to D, etc..

C, G, D, A, E, B, F# (Gb), C# (Db), G# / Ab (now use the enharmonic Ab and go up a 5th to - Eb, Bb, F, and up a 5th to - yes!! C.
