There are ten different kinds of saxaphones. From the smallest to the biggest, they are:Saprillo, Soprano, Mezzo Soprano, Sopranino, Alto, Tenor, Baritone, Tubax, Bass, and Contrabass.
Though the Tubax Saxophone is just a small, more compressed version of the Bass saxophone, and the Sapranino is just a curved version of the Saprano.
The Saprano and Saprillo are straight, instead of curved at the mouthpiece and bell like the other kinds of saxaphones.
The most commonly played saxaphones are the Alto and Tenor, and the least commonly played are the Bass, Tubax, Contrabass, Saprillo, and Sapranino.
The Alto, Tenor, and Baritone saxaphones are the most common for a Jazz, Rock, or classical band or orchestra. The Alto and the Tenor saxaphones usually play the solos though.
Most saxes are made from metals like bronze silver and gold, but very few saxaphones are actually made from bamboo, but have a very different tone quality than the metal saxaphones.
