Adolphe Sax

You have to buy a swab to swab all of the moisture out of your sax. A microfiber swab is preferred. A neck cleaner (this is more use for tenor than alto sax) is to clean out grime from the neck, and a polishing clouth to clean the outside. Doing this will help intonation and production of a better sound. This will also make playing a lot easier

Every month or so I just boil my mouthpiece and gooseneck without the cork or pad on, the only thing you can do with the body is just pull a cloth through it every time you play though, unless you get it cleaned professionally, but it can take hours.

It is not played with gloves. It kept the cost of the game down so that everyone could afford to play,

Practice. More experience, the better sound. Also, the mouthpiece makes a big difference to the sound. The mouthpiece that comes with the saxophone tends to (not always) be a beginner one, that is easy to use but is unable to hit the low and high notes. Whereas if you got a more professional mouthpiece, after you get used to it, it sounds much nicer and is easier to play. Another thing, by learning techniques like vibrato or 'growling', makes great effects when performing and recording. To do vibrato, move your jaw (fast) up and down ever so slightly when playing a long note; this makes it sound sort of echoey and like the sound is vibrating, hence the name 'vibrato'. To growl, make a humming noise whilst playing a note, and it makes an intense gnarly sound. Though it is quite tricky to do, so don't be put off if you can't do it after a few tries ;)

Remember though, saxophones that are on CDs are edited in sound. They put on echo effects and pitch corrector so it sounds perfect, which is extremely difficult to do playing live. So use recorded saxophones as a reference, but don't get upset if you don't sound exactly like it ;)

There are 3 levels of saxophones.

First, there's a student model. Student models are cheaper and for beginning saxophonists or saxophonists who don't really plan on continuing saxophone. It has all the basic functions a beginner needs. These are the cheapest

Second, there's the intermediate level saxophone. These are used mostly for students who want to keep going in your saxophone career. Most models have the alternate F# key that is needed in harder level music. The tone from the materials used is also better. These can get pretty expensive but most are affordable (if it's important to you).

Lastly, There's the professional saxophone. These are for serious saxophonists, (or ones that like to spend money!) These are ALWAYS at least 2000 dollars...They have the best sound, however. All have an alternate F# key (and on soprano high G key) If you want a professional saxophone, I would suggest waiting until you know how to play and care for it/know you want to keep going with the saxophone.

Hope this helps.

assuming you know the notes locations, in the key of 'c' it would be this..

g g g... g g e g... g g g... g g f g... g g b b b a... a g g g f... e e e e d d d d c

if that helps :)

You can play any instrument in any clef, you just need to be able to understand that clef. But yes, saxophone sheet music is generally notated in the treble clef. Well, at least I know for sure that tenor and alto sax music is, but those are the only types of sax I have played. I can't say for sure that baritone and soprano sax are.

concert Bb on an alto saxophone is a G

three keys on left hand

for the Bb on an alto press the B key and use the right hand to press the key needed for F or F# but no fingers in between.

go on youtube and type how to play Take Five and it will show you or go on google and type Take Five music sheet and it will give you the music sheet.

A barchan is an arc-shaped sand ridge comprised of well-sorted sand.

All saxophones produce sound in the same way: The saxophone player pushes air through the mouthpiece; the moving air causes the reed to vibrate rapidly against the mouthpiece, causing the air to vibrate at that same frequency and a pictch to sound. The air then moves though the saxophone, amplifying the sound until it escapes through whichever holes closest to the mouthpiece are open. If all holes are pressed down, then the air escapes through the bell of the sax.
The distance of the open tone hole to the mouthpiece determines how high or low the pitch of the note sounds.

I'm really etcixed to see the scene where Katniss blows up the Careers' food stockpile! But then I can't wait to see all of Katniss' costumes- her dress, the fire costumes for her and Peeta, the outfits for the arena AHHH!!! Plus, I think everyone is waiting to see the kissing, the playful/mean banter between Katniss and Haymitch, and Effie's awesomeness! 164 days cannot pass soon enough!

Soz this is just the chorus.

Of course. Some big changes, some little.

The first saxes (1840's) only went down to a low B, so the bell was a bit shorter and had no Bb key.

Early saxes weren't lacquered, they were bare brass. Silver plating came next then lacquer.

Until about 1911, there were two octave keys, one for notes up to G and one for higher notes. Now there's an articulated mechanism that opens different octave tone holes with a single key.

Rollers on the pinkie keys were added in the early 1900's

Until the 1930's most saxes had one bell key on each side of the bell.

The articulation of the G# and C# pinkie keys was added later

The front high F# key is a recent additon.

Key guards used to be made of brass rod. Now they're sheet metal.

Many changes in bore dimensions, tone hole placement and key work, most barely noticeable.

d flat is the same as c sharp. so just the octive key
