A very lively international forum where saxophone players come to meet and greet, ask questions, give advice, have a laugh. If there is anything you can’t find out about here, then somebody in the Café is bound to know the answer or point you in the right direction.
What’s new on Cafe Saxophone
- Please, help me sound decentI need help. Let me provide some context: I started playing as a kid. Since then I’ve had some periods of not playing at all, and some of playing pretty regularly. Anyway, I recently began playing again regularly after a period of not playing for about 2 years. I understand, of course, that there’s a […]
- Skronk on a budget?Hi all, new member here. I should preface this by saying I am not, in any way, a saxophonist. I currently play keys, a bit of bass guitar, dabble in electric guitar, and sing. I’ve been considering getting into sax for a while but the price of even most second hand instruments puts them beyond […]

- New mouthpiece?So...a while back I finally cracked the altissimo mystery...or so I thought. While I have little problem with the G#, A or Bb, I still can almost never hit the G. There has been a time here and there where it is perfect and effortless (what a tease!) but most times I can barely hit […]
- HornographyWell,,, I had to give it a go
- Soprano Saxophone Excelsior Sonorous Class A Hawkes & SonHello, I am firstly a clarinetist (don’t hold that against me), but have recently come back to playing sax on a Yamaha Alto. I have also inherited a old Soprano Sax. It is all there but currently not in a playable condition until I get it overhauled. The thing is, I’m not sure whether it […]
- Hello from Cambridgeshire UKGlad I found this. I play Alto & Tenor sax. Intermediate. Currently perfecting some pieces for a BigBand group at work but what I really want to do is play in a Blues or Rock band in my spare time
- Hello from the US!Hello there! I'm a high school student and I've been playing alto saxophone for about 2 years now. I thought it would be fun and helpful to join this site! Looking forward to exploring this website more!
- Another album track played on BBC IntroducingI had another original track from my debut album played on BBC Introducing Hereford & Worcester radio yesterday so can't resist sharing it here Hope that's okay to do. This makes 7 so far from my debut album with the final 2 tracks due to be uploaded in a few days (they only allow 2 […]
