The saxophone, developed in 1846 by Adolphe Sax, is an instrument with a single-reed mouthpiece and a conical brass body that is often curved. Closely related to the clarinet, the saxophone is designed to project like a brass instrument while offering musicians the agility of sound of a woodwind.
Saxophones come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, with larger instruments spanning lower musical ranges. The most common saxophones by far are alto and tenor saxophones, followed by baritone and soprano saxophones.
Saxophones were developed for use in military marching bands. Sections of saxophonists have gained acceptance in concert and big band settings as well. But perhaps the best known setting for saxophones is in jazz, where saxophone soloists are often the star performers.

In the 'Range' tab it says:
"The following table, which lists the ranges of several types of saxophone, assumes a very skilled practitioner. Many inexperienced players will not reach the upper ranges shown."
