Soprano Saxophones

The soprano saxophone has a rich history that stretches all the way back to the early 1800s. It gained a huge amount of publicity in the '60s with legends like John Coltrane, and in the late '80s and early '90s it gained even more adoration thanks to Kenny G: the most successful saxophonist of all time. Of course, you don't have to be a famous star to own a soprano saxophone that looks, feels and plays beautifully. Companies like Allora, Jupiter, Selmer and countless others each construct high-quality beginner and intermediate soprano saxophones, and they all can be found in these pages alongside professional models.
