The Saxophone was developed by Adlophe Sax, a Belgian living in the 19th century. It was designed as a type of hybrid between the woodwind and the brass section, using a brass style body but the single reed mouthpiece was like that of the woodwind.He developed 14 types of saxophone ranging in pitch, from the soprano right down to the contrabass.
