Saxophone

 
                                    
 
 
 
Saxophone is a family of wood wind instruments .  Saxophones are usually made of brass and played with  a single - reed mouthpiece similar to that of the clarinet . The Saxophone family was invented by the Belgian instrument maker Adolphe sax in 1840 . Sax wanted to create a group or a series of instrument that would be the most powerful and vocal of the wood winds , and the most adoptive of the brass that would fill the vacant middle ground between the two sections . He patented the Saxophone on June 28 , 1846 , in two groups of seven instruments each . Each series consisted of instruments of various sizes in alternating transposition . The series pitched in Bb and Eb  designed for military .
