Best Answer

(From left to right) The Sopranino, Soprano, Alto, C-Melody, Tenor, Baritone, Bass, and Contra-Baritone.

I recommend if you want to be able to carry if around with you and do very high pitched notes, choose the Soprano because it has a nice range and sound and isn't too heavy. If you want a Saxophone that is a nice size and can do quite high and low notes, and want easier to read sheet music, choose the Alto. Or, if you are quite strong and tall and want a Saxophone with a very intense tone, choose the Tenor

How long is a sopranino saxophone?

A Sopranino Saxophone is the smallest member of the Saxophone family. Sizes depend on if they are curved or not, but most Sopranino Saxophones are not curved because they are so small, but a few companies do make curved Sopranino Saxophones. They generally tend to be around 17" to 20" long.


What are facts about about the saxophone?

The saxophone is made of a cheaper metal, (often brass) and then lacquered in gold to give it its appealing look. The saxophone uses a reed, which vibrates against the mouthpiece to produce vibrations which result in sound. When you depress the keys on a saxophone, it lengthens or shortens the 'pipe' in the saxophone which will determine the pitch of the saxophone. the saxophone has pads which press against the key holes to make airtight seals, and the fingerkeys are often made of Mother-of-Pearl. The reed is attached to the mouthpiece with something called a ligature, which securely holds the reed in place. There are 4 common sizes of saxophone, and in order from smallest to largest they are, Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Baritone. Saxophones often have 3 parts; the body, the neck and the mouthpiece. The mouthpiece is attached to the neck and then the neck is attached to the body. These are just some of the millions of facts about the saxophone.

How many pictures can be in a PowerPoint?

There is no answer to that. Pictures come in all sorts of formats, all sorts of sizes and take up different amounts of space. Your computer's memory capacity is another issue. When you bring these factors together, along with some others, there is no set amount of pictures that can be in a Powerpoint slide or presentation.
