Saxophone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (4281 words)
	The saxophone or sax is a conical-bored instrument of the woodwind family, usually made of brass and played with a single-reed mouthpiece like the clarinet.
	Sax's amazing ability to offend rival instrument manufacturers, and unfortunate prejudice towards the man and his instruments led to it not being used in orchestral groups, and for a long time it was relegated to military bands--this despite his great friendship with the influential Parisian composer Hector Berlioz.
	Sax himself had mastered these techniques; he demonstrated the instrument as having a range of over three octaves up to a high B natural.
