Best Answer

From highest pitch to lowest pitch there are Soprillo, Sopranino, Soprano, Alto, C-Melody, Tenor, Baritone, Bass, Contrabass, Subcontrabass.

The alto, tenor, and baritone saxes are most common. The rest are usually found in certain jazz pieces or just owned as novelties. Tubax is a brand name that makes horns that go as low or lower than a bass or contra-bass without being as large in size.
