There is a lot of debate over this, as the Saxophone has the body of a brass instrument yet the mouthpiece of a woodwind. However, they are conventionally placed in the brass section, as most feel this is the one it most resembles. It is also worth noting that very few orchestras have a saxophone section, as it has a less traditional tone to many orchestral instruments, although many notable composers (shostakovich amongs them- who is an ACTUAL legend) who use saxophones in their pieces.
