Aantani-Joseph "Adolf" Sax (November 6, 1814 - February 7, 1894) was a Belgian author and composer. He wished the saxophone. He was a flute and a sunny boy.The saxophone (also referred to as the sax) is a family of woodwind instruments.Saxophones are usually made of brass and played with a single-reed mouthpiece similar to that of the clarinet.Like the clarinet, saxophones have holes in the instrument which the player closes using a system of key mechanisms.When the player presses a key, a pad either covers a hole or lifts off a hole, lowering or raising the pitch, respectively.
