Is the alto sax similar to the clarinet?

There are many similarities. The mouthpiece and reed are similar, as is the embouchure (how you use the small muscles around the mouth), although the clarinet embouchure requires more strength. In the middle octave, from fourth line D to B above the staff, the primary fingerings are the same. There are differences, too. In addition to the obvious different shape and weight of the instruments, the sax overblows at the octave, meaning the middle octave has the same fingerings for each note as in the low octave (except for the addition of the octave key), while the clarinet overblows at the twelfth, meaning the fingering for the low octave is different. For example, the fingering for middle C with the addition of the register key sounds a G in the middle register of the clarinet. The more complicated fingering and the additional embouchure strength required to play clarinet makes it harder for a sax player to learn the clarinet than it is for a clarinet player to learn sax. Many teachers encourage young players who are interested in saxophone to start on clarinet. The young clarinet player doesn't have to deal with the weight of the sax, and learns skills that transfer easily.

Can you use a sax reed for a clarinet?

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.

How do you clean the tenor sax?

After playing the sax, pull a swab thorough the body. This removes the moisture. If the sax is really old and nasty, take it to a music repair man for a chemical dip. THEY REMOVE ALL KEYS, and clean the body inside and out. Never play the sax unless you brush your teeth first and only drink water, no soda, coffee or alcohol. When finished playing the sax, remove the reed and dry it, pull a cotton handkerchief through the mouthpiece to dry it out and use a clarinet swab to pull through the sax neck.
