Why do you need a neck strap for a saxophone?
So it doesn't fall off when you're holding it,and because it is too heavy to hold in your arms.
How many pieces make up a saxophone?
There are two main parts to an Alto Sax, the body and the neck. In addition you'll also need reeds, a ligature, mouthpiece, and neck strap to be able to play. This all totals up to 6 pieces.
What do you need to play a alto saxophone?
As a saxophone player myself, I can tell you that you don't need much to play the instrument. I suggest:A neck strapReeds (Around #2 reeds if you are a beginner)An saxophone (obviously)A mouthpieceA saxophone cleaner (basically a wipe on a string)That's about it. Of course music would come in handy, but if you're just practicing getting the notes out then there's no need yet. Good luck!
What does an alto sax sound like if you use a tenor sax mouthpiece with it?
It sounds the same, you just need to push in the mouthpiece into the neck. Just like saying, what would happen if you played a tenor saxophone with an alto saxophone mouthpiece. I have played a tenor before with my alto sax mouthpiece. What I meant to say was to push the mouthpiece in more than you would on the alto saxophone neck. The first time I answered I didn't sign in.
Why do clarinets and saxophones transpose?
Im not sure if you meant 'why' or how' do clarinets and saxophones transpose. For the sake of logic, I will assume "How do clarinets and Saxophones transpose" as the alternative does not make sense to me. Well, quite simply, from a clarinet to a Tenor or Soprano Saxophone, there is NO transposing needed as the Clarinet, Tenor Saxophone and Soprano Saxophone are all Bb (B Flat) instruments (which means that a C on the Clarinet will sound the same as a C on those 2 saxes). However, for the Alto and Baritone saxophones, you will need to transpose, as Alto and Baritone are Eb (E Flat) instruments. One thing to note is that a Clarinet has a Register Key, while a Saxophone has an Octave Key. The register key raises the pitch of a clarinet by a 12th (19 semitones) while the Octave key raises by an octave, or 8th (12 semitones). Just something to consider when making the transition :)

On band hero do you need the gutar strap?
The Guitar strap come with the kit. I would say yes you do need it, unless you can hold up the guitar and play at the same time.
How are saxophones and clarinets related?
The clarinet is a million times easier than the saxophone in every aspect. First because clarinet is just like piano where the notes are very easy. But on saxophone there are extra flats and sharps, you have to study things that you don't have to on clarinet, you need more air for saxophone, and the saxophone is very heavy! On clarinet you learn how to play all the notes in less than a month. If you play saxophone you learn the notes in more than 5 months! The saxophone is a lot harder! If you play saxophone, you need to layer your fingering more precisely too. Also they are tuned differently too. So if you play in a concert, the notes you play will be very confusing on the saxophone. Also the clarinet is very light. So it will be very easy to play clarinet than saxophone. So for my opinion clarinet is easier. People out there who think sax is easier, you are wrong. Clarinet is a million times easier than the saxophone in every aspect. Also for saxophone you need more air for blowing. You get tired more easily too. I admit clarinet squeaks a lot. But once you get used to it, you will stop squeaking.

So please when you consider on choosing your instrument between clarinet and saxophone, choose clarinet.

Who are some of the great male mezzo soprano opera singers?
You need to rephrase your question. A mezzo soprano is a female singer. There are men who sing in the mezzo-soprano register. They are called countertenors. Two of the most notable in the world now are David Daniels and Bejun Mehta.
Is it ok to cut the understrap off a life jacket or just not to wear it...I can't really swim but I don't think I need a strap between my legs. I thought that was only for kids jackets?
It is not good to cut the understrap off your life jacket. Even if you know how to swim. That strap, though uncomfortable, is there so the neck line of your lifejacket doesn't come up and into your face. I suggest you wear it.
Can women do guys in the butt?
They need a strap-on (or I guess anything that fits).
