| | Tenor saxophone - definition of Tenor saxophone in Encyclopedia |
 | | The saxophone is most commonly associated with popular music, big band music, and jazz, but it was originally intended as both an orchestral and military band instrument. | | | The C-melody saxophone, a non-transposing instrument, was popular in the 1920s and could be played from sheet music for guitar and piano. | | | They have a unique tone, not as warm or mellow as cane reeds, which are suited to rock or jazz, but have a brighter, though not as high-quality tone, more suited to a marching band. |
