assignment #4
My instrument is the saxophone which is a woodwind instrument. The parts of the instrument are the Reed, Ligature, Cork , Neck, Neck screw and the Body the cleff that the saxophone is played in is the treble cleff.the saxophone was invented in 1841 by a Belgian manufacturer, Adolphe Sax. The sound that the instrument makes can very from a high pitch note to a low pitch note depending on the note that is being played, you assemble the instrument by simply putting all the parts together in the places that they go. you sterilize the mouth piece by dipping it in a cleaning fluid for about 20 seconds then taking it out and drying it with a clean towel, before you star playing you want to remove the parts from the case but not grabbing it from its keys or any moving parts you also want to clean your mouth piece before playing. putting the instrument away you wanna do basically the same thing putting all the parts in the designated areas in the case still not hanging on to it by its keys or moving parts.
