Your Answer: Contra Bass Baritone Saxophone
Did you know:
As of 2006 , there are only 15 contra bass baritone saxophones existing in the world.
There is actually a Saxophone that is 36 octaves lower than the Baritone Saxophone...but it is only for show. It has a mouthpiece as big as a small car and keys the size of bass drum heads. The largest playable one is the Octo Subcontrabass Sax.....it is a contrabass sax but with 4 loops of tubing.
The highest saxophone is the soprano
:) :P
The bass saxophone in C was the original saxophone that Adolph Sax made in 1843.
Soprano is the shortest and the contrabass is the biggest
Adolphe Sax invented the saxophone in the 1840s.
The saxophone is the only Woodwind that was not originally made of wood
The saxophone is made of a cheaper metal, (often brass) and then lacquered in gold to give it its appealing look. The saxophone uses a reed, which vibrates against the mouthpiece to produce vibrations which result in sound. When you depress the keys on a saxophone, it lengthens or shortens the 'pipe' in the saxophone which will determine the pitch of the saxophone. the saxophone has pads which press against the key holes to make airtight seals, and the fingerkeys are often made of Mother-of-Pearl. The reed is attached to the mouthpiece with something called a ligature, which securely holds the reed in place. There are 4 common sizes of saxophone, and in order from smallest to largest they are, Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Baritone. Saxophones often have 3 parts; the body, the neck and the mouthpiece. The mouthpiece is attached to the neck and then the neck is attached to the body. These are just some of the millions of facts about the saxophone.
The oboe is larger than the piccolo. The largest woodwind instrument is the contrabass saxophone.
