A Tenor Saxophone produces a rich and warm sound that is deep and resonant, with a smooth and mellow tone that is often described as soulful and expressive.
It sounds very loud and jazzy. I play it myself. It's awesome
The Alto Saxophone is a rich and lovely sound wich echoes but iit can hurt a dogs ears when it reaches an extremly high pich noise.
about average in terms of high-low pitch. a good tenor's range is typically from an octave below middle c to an octave above middle c.
In the movie Some Like it Hot (1959), which took place in 1929, the jazz saxophone player was Joe/Josephine who was played by Tony Curtis.
Yes, a saxophone is considered a member of the woodwind family, not the brass family like horns.
It sounds the same, you just need to push in the mouthpiece into the neck. Just like saying, what would happen if you played a tenor saxophone with an alto saxophone mouthpiece. I have played a tenor before with my alto sax mouthpiece. What I meant to say was to push the mouthpiece in more than you would on the alto saxophone neck. The first time I answered I didn't sign in.
The Tenor Saxophone, like me =D

The saxophone is a woodwind instrument. It is played with a reed, not a mouthpiece.
Like all the saxophones, the tenor was invented in the 1840's. Adolphe Sax's patent was dated 1846
Saxophones are from the Woodwind family because they are played from a reed, even though they are made out of brass.
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

This is my opinion. I think that the saxophone is a very complicated instrument. I wouldn't recommend it to ppl who want a soothing instrument. Saxophone has a more of a blaring sound. But some people like it. I personally like the flute better. Its sound is sooo much more soothing and relaxing.
"Bari" sax (short for baritone, which is a vocal range, like soprano, alto, tenor, etc.) Stands probably about four feet tall, quite heavy. The baritone saxophone is the 2nd larges saxophone in the known saxophone world and is one of the hardest to play.
Yes. A saxophone is made of brass but makes sound by a vibrating reed like a clarinet.
