I think you are referring to the Bb clarinet which is single but there are acually 3 different types of clarinets. Bb=single Oboe=double Alto=single
Well yes and no. When you finger a note on alto and tenor the notes in the relative key (Bb for tenor and Eb for alto) are fingered the same way. So a C on an alto and a C on a tenor are fingered the same way, but sound different. On tenor it's a concert Bb, when on alto it's a concert Eb. But for fingering purposes and just generally learning the instrument, yes.
The alto saxophone has a neck, keys, and a bell. It is played through a reed, classifying it as a woodwind instrument rather than a brass instrument. It is smaller than a tenor saxophone and larger than a soprano saxophone, and the alto saxophone is the most commonly played saxophone in the world.
