What is the difference between a soprano and alto flute?

Answer 1

a soprano is straight like Clarinet and usaully gold colored and the alto is curved on the bottom it makes a 180 degree turn outward. and a soprano sax is smaller and often straight instead of curved. it is pitched at B flat as opposed to E flat. alto sax is the most common Saxophone. musicmoo :)

Soprano sax is sometimes semicurved and sometimes straight. It has the same pitch as a tenor sax whereas an Eb alto sax is the same pitch as a baritone sax. hope this helps, Saxesofevil and walt899

For comparison, the soprano is pitched an octave higher than the tenor, and the sopranino an octave higher than the alto.
