When an organ player tells the tenor saxophone player to play the song in b flat so it can be in tune with the organ player how should the song be played by tenor saxophone player?

The tenor sax always plays a whole tone above concert pitch instruments like the organ. If the organist is playing in C then the tenor sax plays in D. This is because when you play lin key of C on the tenor sax you are playing in Bb concert. So you always have to raise your pitch by a whole tone in order to be in tune with the concert pitch instruments

How do you play the a scale on the tenor saxophone?

On any instrument, an A major scale has three sharps: F#, C#, and G#. The scale is A, B, C#, D, E, F#, G#, A. If you are asking about a concert A major scale, you'd play a B scale on any Bb instrument, like a tenor sax. Now you've got 5 sharps, and the scale is played B, C#, D#, E, F#, G#, A#, B. It's a knuckle buster.

When a organ player tells a tenor saxophone to play a b flat to be in tune to his organ what scale do he play?

A note played on tenor sax sounds one full step lower (actually an octave and a step, but you can ignore the octave). Play a C and it sounds like a B-flat. If you want to transpose music written for organ or piano, write the new part one note higher and change the key signature by taking away two flats or adding two sharps. the organist can probably help with the key signatures if that's confusing.
