Saxophone

Wow, well this answer would take a while lol, look at it like this, there are 26 keys on an Alto Sax, the six keys you will most likely (depending on what your playing) be using, are the keys your fingers should be on when holding the sax. The top key alone, is a (B), if you play the next one along with the top key, you play an (A), and holding down all three keys, you will play a (G). Very bery basic notes, without a doubt used in almost every piece written. Then the bottom 3, no matter which bottom key you need to press, the 3 keys we just talked about, ALL need to be held down, the first key on the bottom, along with the top 3, will give you an (F), now holding down the second key, along with the first one, and the three on top, will give you an (E), and finally holding down the last key along with the first two keys and the three on top will give you a (D). Now while there are many many more notes out there for the alto, there are too many to type out like this because some of them require more complex detail, if you want to know more, go on the internet, and look up Alto Saxophone Fingering Charts, they have every note on a sax, on that chart. Hope this helped.

Well, most saxophones (depending on the color) can range from 200-5000 depending on where you get it. I got my black/gold Tenor saxophone off of eBay for only $350 and it was brand new. Look online more than in the stores, it's way cheaper.

The primary difference between the Bb soprano saxophone and the Bb soprano clarinet (to choose equivalent members of their families) comes from the fact that the clarinet has a cylindrical bore and overblows a 12th (octave plus a fifth) while the saxophone overblows by an octave.

This means that the saxophone's second octave fingers like the first octave, while the clarinet needs extra keys to get the first four notes of the second octave!

There are other differences (for instance, the clarinet has a very large number of little-finger keys used for alternate fingerings, making it possible to play passages more smoothly which otherwise would be viciously hard to play at all.) But this is the fundamental difference between them.

( added on ) i don't know much about clarinets but I'm going to use this as an example. to play the same tone of another instrument you have different notes. For example. concert G would be A natural for saxaphones but a C for a horn

G, C (high), G, C (low), G, C (high), G, C (high), E, D, C, B, A G, C (high), G, C (low), G, C (high), G, C (high), A, G, F, E, D C (low)

Your might be thinking about "Lily Was Here". Guitarist Dave Stewart was famous for making music with his wife Annie Lennox in the Eurythmics. On "Lille Was Here" he teamed up with saxophonist Candy Dulfer. It is a great instrumental tune for the early 90's.

What do you mean?

im not sure what that means but people who play the sax are like people who like jazz like me i play the sax in band that's cause im in 6th grade but yeah anyone can play the sax if they are into it hope i helped!!!

There are no "jazz instruments."

You can find jazz pieces written for almost any instrument, including trumpets, saxophones, trombones, flutes, clarinets, piano, string bass, vocal parts, etc.

GGG gggg Bb Bb C if the G was a quarter note and the g is a 16th note and the Bb and C's are quaters too

Crickets can make up the majority of their diet. Three to six can be fed per frog several times a week. Additionally, flightless fruit flies, houseflies, and small moths can be offered regularly to vary their diet. Coat their food in the proper calcium and vitamin supplements every couple feedings (this can be done by placing the insects in a plastic bag along with some calcium/vitamin powder and shaking it up so the food becomes coated evenly). Juvenile frogs should have their food supplemented more often.

When you play a saxophone, or any reed instrument, the reed vibrates, causing pulsing of the air you are breathing into the instrument. That causes the air in the instrument to also vibrate. Resonance determines frequency and timbre.

The saxophone comes from the two American inventors: Cheech (Richard Marin) and Chong (Tommy Chong). They accidentally built it after attempting to build a high-tech bong, then when they first tested it they realized that it made music. That is why they originally named it the "Musical Bong." Then when they needed extra income to buy more Marijuana, they sold it to Belgium. Later on Belgium named in the Saxophone, and took all the credit for its presence.

The saxophone makes a mix-between woodwind and brass sound. The saxophone has a unique sound though and it varies between which type of saxophone or even the player.

The saxophone generally makes a smooth-bold sound, but it may be hard to understand this in words. Bold in this case would be rich, filled, similar to a bold coffee. Certain people like bold coffees and certain people like a little weaker coffee, or an airier saxophone sound.

Being the rock bottom is a name for being the very lowest.

4 wives but was not legally married with the last one.

That completely depends! talking about an alto saxophone (as this is the most common, especially amongst beginners) the prices can Cary from £200 right up into the thousands. It is possible to but saxes for less than this by buying second hand which can be great value, but as a beginner who may not know what they are looking for if you decide on this option then I would recommend getting whatever you intend to buy checked out by a professional in order to ensure you are not left with huge repair costs. Another downside is that once you play you will realise just how much spit gets into the saxophone and you may be thoroughly put off! All I can say is you get what you pay for- the more expensive the sax the higher quality it will be so it will be easier to play and sound better in the long run.

Considering the face that i own a selmer metal mouthpeice, and people have told me it's worth alot of money, i'd say the instrument it'self it gotta be worth a crap load as long as it's in ok condition.

Brubeck was a piano player. He did not play sax in performance, if at all. His most famous piece was take five and featured a melody written and played by saxophonist Paul Desmond.

The Alto Saxophone is in the key of E flat. That means that an E flat on the Alto Saxophone is the same pitch as a C on a piano or other concert pitch instrument.

The character 'Mona Sax' has two different appearances, referring to the critically acclaimed Max Payne, and Max Payne 2: The Fall Of Max Payne, games.

In Max Payne 2: The Fall Of Max Payne, 'Mona Sax' was modelled by the beautiful *Kathy Tong* and/but was voiced with the talented voice of Wendy Hoopes.

Kathy Tong and her appearance as the character Mona Sax in Max Payne 2: The Fall Of Max Payne, have an amazing resemblance.

The most popular members of the saxophone family are the soprano, alto, tenor and baritone saxophone. The soprano is based in the key of B-flat, the alto E-flat, the tenor B-flat and the baritone E-flat. There have been other variations of the saxophone as well, including the sopranino (e-flat), bass (b-flat) contra bass (e-flat) and c melody saxophone.

finger an A with the left hand (the first two keys your fingers are on), and add the last of the three rectangular keys with the palm of your right hand, located near the hook. Fingering diagrams are extremely helpful in these situations.

a different guy,

WRONG! you use both of your pointer fingers.

C is the note after the note where you have a space in your fingers, and E is all of them down apart from the bottom one. (Keep the space at A and only the buttons. Not the different keys.) For a higher octave, hit the octave key by the thumb.

An alto sax varies in prices depending where you are. It also depends on if you want a professional alto sax or a student alto sax. A professional alto sax usually costs about 2,000 to 3,000 dollars. A student alto sax will usually cost about 250 to 1,000 dollars. So make sure you really want your own instrument because it is quite an investment.
