The '''saxophone''' is a invented by [[Adolphe Sax]] in 1841, a Belgian clarinetist. The saxophone was invented to resemble an intermediate instrument between woodwind and brass, although it is generally considered a woodwind instrument.

There are five types of saxophones in use today: E''b'' [[Soprano Saxophone]], B''b'' [[Alto Saxophone]], E''b'' [[Tenor Saxophone]], [[C Melody Saxophone]] and E''b'' [[Baritone Saxophone]]. Because the note fingering is the same on all types of saxophones, it is easy for a saxophonist to switch from one sax to another.
