The Saxophone belongs to the woodwind family of instruments, despite being made of brass. This classification is due to its use of a single-reed mouthpiece, similar to clarinets, which produces sound by vibrating the reed. Additionally, the saxophone's design allows for a wide range of expressive techniques typical of woodwind instruments.
