ABOUT THE SAXOPHONE
Though
the Alto Saxophone is made of brass, it is classified as a
woodwind instrument and utilizes a mouthpiece resembling that
of the clarinet. Starting in the mid-1920s, with the rise of
the big bands, the saxophone family slowly but steadily evolved
from a vaudeville novelty into a staple in the mainstream of
jazz.
The
saxophone family includes instruments with at least
eight different voice ranges: soprano, alto, tenor and baritone
being the most common. Since they were patented in 1846,
saxophones have become centrally important in military,
dance, and jazz bands.
The Jupiter Eb Alto Saxophones have
a lacquered brass body, nickel-plated keys, a high F#
key, tilting G# - Bb spatula keys, upper and lower stack
adjusting screws, metal tone boosters, adjustable thumb
rest and wood frame case.
