Angry Lunchbox I play Tenor Sax.
My favourite thing to play is Pink Panther. It's really hard to find sheet music for Tenor too, I usually end up playing Trumpet or B-Flat Clarinet music... v.v
I looove playing that. xd I know it on alto, so when I wanted to play it, I just transposed it. I'm not sure if I've seen a tenor part or not, though...

Can you play low G# yet? haha it's fun in relation to the low A, there is no low G#. there is, however, a G# on the staff...which isn't really low.

It's fun haha your foot lowers the pitch a half step.

Blackheart115 there isn't a fingering for it, but you can do it if you know how haha Sit down and play a low A, cross your legs, then stick your foot in the bell. It's fun haha your foot lowers the pitch a half step. that is neither practical, nor impressive. neutral it annoys me when someone thinks they're cool because they can stick their foot in their sax. yes, i realize it's a joke. no, it's not funny to me. it's like sticking a potato in your car's exhaust, only not as dramatic. more like disrespectful neutral . why would you do that to your own horn? contra bass doesn't have a G#/Ab key as far as i know. i've seen a contrabass played live and seen it up close too. the particular model didn't have an Ab, and it's not common for someone to buy their own contra bass, so manufacturers don't try to experiment with the design.

I agree toco, i would never stick my foot into my bari sax. It's just...wrong. I've never actually seen a contra bass up close. How much bigger is it than the bari sax?

xXxKoKoRoMixXx I agree toco, i would never stick my foot into my bari sax. It's just...wrong. I've never actually seen a contra bass up close. How much bigger is it than the bari sax? it's quite a bit bigger. the contra bass was about 6 feet(slightly taller than me) and the bari is just barely at my stomach(the top of it).
