Best Answer

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.
