A B-Flat soprano sax is in the same key as a trumpet, clarinet, tenor sax, etc.. This is the most common soprano sax. If you were in band you'd probably be playing one of those parts as most band arrangements don't have a soprano sax part. An E-flat soprano sax is in the same key as an alto sax, or a bari sax. Sopranos in this key are less common & if you played this one in band they'd probably stick you with a alto sax part. My opinion is to get a b-flat as that is the most popular key for soprano & has more opportunities just in case the band actually does need a soprano, you'd be able to play the part.

The notes for Beat It on alto sax is a normal G. These are the 3 fingers down index, middle, and ring for a symphonic band.
Usually, it's the alto sax, tenor sax, barri sax, trumpet, trombone, drums and piano. In the older jazz bands and in some modern jazz bands, the clarinet and soprano sax are also included.
If you must start on sax, most teachers would recommend starting on alto sax. It's the easiest to control and much smaller and lighter than the tenor which is the other likely candidate. The soprano is smaller yet, but it's difficult to play in tune and there aren't parts for soprano in much band music. Personally, I'd recommend that young players start on clarinet. It's smaller and lighter, and fits young hands better, and it's easy to switch to sax later. It's also easier to lug around and costs less. Serious reed players are expected to play any of the clarinet and sax families, as well as flute. Players who start on clarinet will find that easier. It's much easier for a clarinetist to learn to play sax, than for a sax player to learn clarinet.
