Here are the various members of the saxophone family: sopranino in Eb, soprano in Bb, alto in Eb, tenor in Bb, baritone in Eb, bass in Bb, contrabass in Eb and subcontrabass in Bb. Wow! That’s a big family! Saxophones really blend well with either brass or woodwind instruments. The 1930s saw this instrument’s popularity soar in jazz bands. Presently, the most popular models are the Eb alto and the Bb tenor sax. Saxophones
have been featured and showcased with orchestra by many composers
including Debussy,
Milhaud and Villa-lobos. They were also staples in the big bands
of Duke Ellington and Glenn Miller.
