Dads, if any of your children are choosing a musical instrument to learn, and they are leaning towards saxophone, encourage them against this. Saxophone is the only band instrument that is not an orchestra instrument. For Good Reason.

But the sax is SO cool! That’s what every kid is thinking. You can’t play the tuba in a sweet jazz band either.
Any jazz band worth it’s salt can use a Tuba.
Why do you gotta hate on the sax? What’s the “good reason”?
I think the main reason not to advise the sax is because it’s so expensive!
