Can playing the trumpet saxophone or tuba enlarge your heart?
A great deal of cardiovascular exercise enlarges the heart over time because of the great demand on the heart for blood to be pumped to the working muscles. These are usually the larger muscles of the legs. When using a musical instrument you are using the Thoracic Diaphragm and the lungs to push air through the instrument. While this may be a good exercise to develop excellent lung power, unless your heart is very taxed while your playing your instrument, it is doubtful that any significant increase in heart size would ever take place.

What is the definition of the saxophone?
Saxophones are a family of instruments invented by Adolphe Sax, who gave them his name. They are made of brass, like trumpets and other brass instruments, have a conical bore, like brasses and also some woodwinds, but are keyed like a woodwind and have a single reed like a clarinet. They range from high pitched soprano to low-pitched bass.
If you drop it, it can dent. If you don't clean it regularly, the keys will stick down and not work. If you carry it wrong, e.g. by the neck, it will become detatched from the body and fall of the floor. Basically, if you don't care for the sax properly it might break.

( Top seated?) The Mezzo-Soprano Saxophone is a rare saxophone pitched in the key of F (one whole tone higher than the standard Alto). It was originally designed by Adolph Sax as the Symphony Alto in F; the Mezzo-Soprano was only produced by C.G. Conn between 1928-1930. It does resembles an Alto in appearance and shape. Only a few examples exist today, and those extant instruments usually command a high price tag.

What is the original saxophone?
First of all, I don't recommend any saxophone brand that offers colored (excluding silver, nickel, or black nickel plating) saxophones. Those tend to be of extremely poor quality and imported from China. I've been playing sax for over 8 years and I've never heard of a plucker. Unless they are referring to the pad saver. If you're looking for a new sax, and you're not planning to spend a lot of money, i recommend Antigua Winds. I currently play on their top model alto, and I'm very happy with it. I'm not going to say it's better than any Yanagisawa or Selmer, but it only cost me about $1200. They have some as low as $800 I believe. Although that seems expensive, when the pink sax falls apart when you're playing it, you or your parents would have wished you invested more money rather than throwing away $200-300. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.
