The sarrusophone may fairly beregarded as an oboe or bassoon; but the saxophone is not so closelyrelated to the clarinet. There are four sizes of saxophone now madebetween high soprano and bass. Starting from the fourth fundamentalnote, each key can be employed in the next higher octave, by the helpof other two keys, which, being opened successively, set up avibrating loop. The saxophones, although difficult to play, fill animportant place in the military music of France and Belgium, and havebe...en employed with advantage in the French orchestra. The fingering ofall saxophones is that attributed to Boehm. The cup shaped mouthpiece must now take the place of the reed in ourattention. Here the lips fit against a hollow cup shaped reservoir, and, acting as vibrating membranes, may be compared with the vocalchords of the larynx. They have been described as acting as truereeds. Each instrument in which such a mouthpiece is employed requiresa slightly different form of it. The French horn is the most importantbrass instrument in modern music.
