Best Answer

There is no such thing as a treble Saxophone. From high to low, it goes like this: sopranino, soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, bass, contra-bass. Saxophones also have different pitches within those groupings. For example, the alto is usually in E flat. There is also the F, and C. However, I believe all saxes below the baritone are played in the bass clef, which would make all higher saxophones until the alto treble instrument, smeaning they play in the treble clef. I am not sure about soprano and sopranino.

Is treble saxophone and soprano saxophone is the same?

I've been in music all my life, and I confess that I've never heard the term "treble saxophone" I have been involved in the repair of wodwind most of my life and served in an army band for 7 and a half years including boys service. There are two saxophones that I have heard of that are "abnormal". The first was the " HIGH " sax which I believe to have been in C. The second of these was the TREBLE sax which I have seen and had a fundamental lowest note of G concert. There are examples of this which are generally regarded as children's saxophones. I have also heard of a sax in F but never seen one. THE HAPPYTOOTER.

What are some instro ments that uses treble clef?

Some instruments that read in treble clef are the flute, violin, guitar, piano (the top staff), oboe, trumpet, clarinet, and alto saxophone. Really, if the instrument has the potential, they can read in many clefs. The cello, for example, can read in both bass and tenor, given you know how to read both. The french horn can read treble and bass. It depends on the intrument's range.


Is the alto saxophone played on the bass clef or the treble clef?

You can play any instrument in any clef, you just need to be able to understand that clef. But yes, saxophone sheet music is generally notated in the treble clef. Well, at least I know for sure that tenor and alto sax music is, but those are the only types of sax I have played. I can't say for sure that baritone and soprano sax are.
