The baritone saxophone is a wind instrument that belongs to the saxophones family. It is one of seven models that were designed by Adolphe Sax, the creator of modern saxophones.
Counting from the lowest saxophone (the double bass saxophone), it is the third lowes sound. It is an transposition instrument (the notation in the score does not correspond to the actual pitch of the sound) and is tuned E flat. Your registration goes from C1 to A3.
One can find the baritone saxophone in erudite or popular music groups, chamber music groups or large instrumental groups. It is used as a solo instrument in jazz groups due to its powerful sonority. One of the best-known jazz soloists is Gerry Mulligan.
