Start with your left thumb on the black circle on the back at the top... and your right thumb hooked into the hook at the back.
No fingers at all will produce the pitch of C#
Then, working downwards,
left hand
index finger being finger 1
Top/Left Hand
1 = B
1 and 2 = A
2 = C
1, 2 and 3 = G
adding Right/Bottom hand to 3 fingers down on the left hand
1 = F
1 and 2 = E
1,2 and 3 = D
Adding the speaker key (the one above the black circle operated with the side of the left thumb) will make all of these notes and Octave higher.
the operational range of the Saxophone is about 2 and a half octaves, covering from Lowest B to the highest F# keyed note. However, higher notes can be reached using harmonics/overtones and the altissimo register.
You press the three buttons that you would push if you were playing a G. Then add the three keys you need to play D and take away the one that's being pressed by your ring finger.

Do you mean F sharp or natural? I will give you both. For F sharp, you press the thumb key, all three on your top hand, then your middle finger on the bottom. To drop that an octave, release the thumb key. For F natural, It's the exact same thing, except instead of the middle finger on your bottom hand, use your index, or pointer finger.
all of the keys on your right hand. all of the keys of your left hand. the right pinkie key nearest the bottom of the sax.
First two keys on your upper hand, then the bottom side key on your right hand;
1st key on upper hand and biz key;
1st key on upper hand and 1st key on bottom hand.

Altos only go down to B flat
If you mean the normal A, it's the top to keys on the left hand.
thumb, first, second, third fingers on both hands, and on right pinkey the top side key.
jaws is a half step apart B, Bb, B, Bb, B, Bb ect..;
The alto saxophone is in the key of Eb which means that all the notes are a minor 3rd (3 semitones) below concert pitch. A D on the Alto Sax sounds like a real F.
The KEY of the alto sax and baritone sax is in Eb. The Tenor is in Bb
F# = top 3 fingers down. and the middle key on the bottom 3 fingers.
To play F put down all the fingers on your left hand ( the top of the sax) then add the first finger on the right hand. That's low f natural, if you want high f natural add the octave key, which is the key near your left hands thumb.
A b on an alto sax is the the one below the top note up the top A b on an alto sax is the the one below the top note up the top A b on an alto sax is the the one below the top note up the top hahhh i HATE the B scale. wknfw. but if you know how to finger them the notes are: B C# D# E F# G# A# B (two octaves of that)

E flat is E flat, B is still B, etc. no matter what instrument you play. If you mean What note is Concert E flat on alto sax then that would be A, or if you mean what Concert Pitch is E flat on alto sax then that would be C.if you mean it like how do you play it then its the same as the D sharp
B c d e f
That would be your F scale.
The Mario theme tune is a very distinctive piece of music. You could learn it on the alto sax by looking up the sheet music.
