| | The first saxophones to be used in military bands were the E flat baritone and the B flat bass saxophone. | | | The Saxophone embouchure uses a mouthpiece with a single reed whose interior is very wide and which becomes narrower at the part which is fitted to the body of the instrument. | | | At the time of the saxophone’s inclusion, the instrument was rarely used in most bands. |

| | The bass saxophone |
| | Most people's perception of a bass instrument is that it fulfils two chief roles - it either sits at the back of the band and pumps out a jolly bass line, or it occasionally features in a solo number to which the term 'novelty' can be reasonably applied. | | | Upstairs I heard the sound of the band closing a number...and with perfect timing I entered the room to silence. | | | I was quite amazed then when the band struck up a slow ballad and the bass sax took a solo. |

| | Sheet music for bass sax is written in treble clef, just as music for the other saxophones is written, but for the bass instrument, it sounds two octaves and a major second lower than written. | | | Probably the finest revivalist bass saxophonist performing today in the 1920s-1930s style is Vince Giordano. | | | The American bandleader Boyd Raeburn (1913-1966), who led an avant-garde big band in the 1940s, was a bass saxophonist. |

| | The band's namesake title was a high spirited romp with violin and drum solos chasing Carter's soprano saxophone melodies. | | | His solo improvisations on bass, tenor and soprano saxophones inspired the young band members to greater heights, especially the saxophonists watching in awe. | | | The bass saxophone of James Carter roars with robust improvisations of fierce melodies like a bold lion strutting through his jazz domain. |
