Beginners in the saxophone can consider using a saxophone in the key of E-flat.
When buying an instrument, please let the teacher follow, let the teacher play and try it, or you can choose according to the teacher's requirements. You don't have to buy too good instruments first, ** around 1500 2000, and then change them depending on the child's development.
If your child likes it and wants to take the exam, change some instruments. Saxophone grade distinction for reference:
1. More than 20,000 yuan can be considered: Selma, Yanagisawa, Calvoz and other brands, whether in terms of workmanship or material, these brands of saxophone pitch and timbre are very good, and they are the first choice for professional players. The disadvantages are:
**Too high, not suitable for general consumer groups, suitable for enthusiasts with very good economic conditions, often used for professional performances, professional examinations.
Second, the price of 5,000 yuan - 20,000 yuan can consider brands such as Jeput, Aipan, and Yamaha. The quality of the Taiwanese Jeput is not bad, Aipan is a Sino-US joint venture brand, and some models of Yamaha (275) are made in Xiaoshan, China. The quality is still good compared to domestic pipes.
Overall, ** is relatively high. If you are suitable for economic conditions, you can buy it for your child to take the exam, or a one-step for beginners, commercial performances, teacher teaching, etc.
3. 2000-5000 The brands that can be selected at this price point are Jinyin, Xinghai, Taishan, Shengge, etc., **Moderate, the quality can fully meet the needs of beginners, it can be said that it is the first choice for beginners, and the cost performance is very high.

The economic conditions are average, suitable for beginners, amateurs, commercial performances, teacher teaching, etc.
Fourth, 1000-2000 There are too many brands in this price segment, not to list them one by one (including cottage Jinyin, cottage Xinghai, etc.) **Low, which can basically meet the needs of beginners. The disadvantage is that the quality is relatively poor and the service life is relatively short. The economic conditions are relatively poor, and the quality of the instrument is not high, so it can be considered just for hobby.

The saxophone is divided into alto, treble, tenor, upper bass, and is further divided into E flat and B flat, E flat has alto and upper bass, and B flat has treble and tenor. The saxophone is divided into treble, alto, tenor and upper bass, with the treble tenor being B flat and the middle being E flat and C flat.
It is better for beginners to choose to lower the E tone, and most of them are like this. The saxophone can be played in 12 keys regardless of the key, but the fingering is different. It is recommended for beginners to buy alto, and it is more appropriate to choose the e-flat key.
Data Extension:
The saxophone was invented by the Belgian Antoine-Joseph Sax (1814-1894) in 1840. Adolf was an avid instrument maker and specialised in clarinet and flute playing. His original idea was to design a low-level instrument for the orchestra that would be more flexible than the Ophicleide and could be adapted to outdoor performances.
He combined and improved the mouthpiece of the bass clarinet and the body of the Opclyde horn, naming the new instrument after himself.
Typical applications: It is widely used in modern pop light and classical music, such as symphony orchestras, wind ensembles, military bands, and quartets. Ravel (France), Bolero with a soprano and tenor saxophone solo.
The instrument is played with a single reed, the structure of the opening and closing sound holes is similar to that of an oboe, and the range is similar to that of an oboe. It's thin and thick at the top and mouth up, much like a bass clarinet.
There are many types of saxophones, from bass to treble, and all of them are transposed instruments. The saxophone has an unusually rich and charming sound, resembling brass when played strongly and woodwinds when playing weakly, making it a perfect partner for the wind instrument category.
French composers Bizet and Ravel and American composers Gershwin and Bernstein have used the saxophone in their works. The saxophone is also an indispensable instrument in a jazz band.
There are four commonly used saxophones: the soprano saxophone. Alto saxophone.
B-flat tenor saxophone. E-flat upper bass saxophone (Baritone Saxophone).
Several saxophone instruments have exactly the same fingering, all of which are transposed instruments and are notated on a treble clef.
The French composer Berlioz once wrote: "The main characteristic of the saxophone is a wonderful change in timbre, deep and calm, emotional, soft and melancholy, like an echo within an echo, in a moment of silence, no other instrument can produce such a wonderful sound." ”

It is recommended for beginners to learn the alto saxophone, which is used in professional circles and sold by foreign piano stores, such as Selma, Calvoz, Yanagisawa, and Yamaha. Second-tier brands:
Jeppt, Ballston, Ishimori, Paulmoria. These brands will not be wrong to buy with their eyes closed, they are all leaders in the professional field, the highest is Selma, and the most accessible is Ballston. My teachers used Thelma and Ballston.
The domestic market is very deep, don't start easily if you don't understand, see more and move less. In short, it is not wrong to buy these big brands, but you should buy them through regular channels.

Saxophone beginner buys: Alto pipe.
Because in the saxophone family, the e-flat alto should be said to be the most widely used and most versatile one, because its actual pitch, range and timbre are closer to the human voice, more singing and lyrical, and more expressive of various styles and emotions, so it is more inclusive and representative, which is the main reason why it is the first choice for saxophone beginners.
If you think you want to buy a brand of goods, but the cheaper ones are Jappt or Yamaha made in Taiwan (at least 4000+ **). 10,000 or so is still Yamaha, Jeput (869 is quite cost-effective, but the surface may be a little more troublesome to maintain), Calvoz. 20,000 then Yanagisawa, in fact, this price is a bit embarrassing, not high or low, and there are not many options.
There are more options for 30,000, Yamaha 82Z, 875 are good.

Beginners are advised to choose the alto saxophone.
There are many factors that distinguish a good saxophone from a bad saxophone in addition to the timbre, such as the comfort of the hand and whether the keys are ergonomic; the fineness of the workmanship; The degree of sensitivity to the nucleus in the reaction. Responsiveness refers to the fact that a good instrument is able to accurately reflect every movement of the tongue and every slight adjustment of the breath. Playing with a sensitive saxophone, there are subtle changes that occur with the mood of the player.
Another important point is the stability of the saxophone, some instruments are the most popular when the bass can go down, the treble can go up, and the overall performance is normal, but after playing for a period of time, there will be problems such as the bass can't go down, the treble can't go up, the howling, the deformation, and the keys need to be pressed hard to play, so the instrument is unstable. And a good instrument is stable, has no external force, does not bump, and is very durable, because the stable instrument structure is stable.
In addition to these, many people's criteria for judging the quality of musical instruments are timbre, and good instruments have better timbre than bad instruments. In fact, timbre is a very subjective concept, and the main body that affects the timbre of wind music is still people, accounting for about 70%. A virtuoso can play a slightly inferior instrument with a beautiful sound, while a beginner will not be able to play an expensive instrument with a virtuoso level.
Therefore, it can be said that the person determines the timbre, followed by the mouthpiece and the reed.
A good instrument is a good instrument that can be used in the process of playing and learning. In the process of learning and playing, a bad instrument plays the role of a roadblock, which will constantly create difficulties for you.
In summary, the difference between a good instrument and a bad instrument is, firstly, the comfort of the hand; the second is durability and stability; the third is the timbre, expressiveness and sensitivity of the instrument; The fourth is the level of craftsmanship, the details of good musical instruments are very good, as small as every screw, every spring, and every carving has been tempered. Musical instruments are spiritual, and a good saxophone can only be created by investing a lot of craftsmanship.
