A Saxophone is a woodwind instrument that was made to sound like a brass instrument while still have the mellowness of a woodwind. It is basically a cross between the clarintet and the Trumpet. You play a saxophone by blowing into the mouthpiece, causing the reed to vibrate. You then press down the buttons over the holes located down the saxophone to play different notes.

The sousaphone can be made out of either Brass or Fiberglass. While I'm no expert at this, I think they can also be made of colored plastic.
