The saxophone is a woodwind instrument, despite typically being made of brass, invented in the 1840s by Adolphe Sax, and is a staple of jazz, classical, and pop music. Playing it involves reading music or improvising, breath control, and embouchure technique, and it comes in several sizes such as alto, tenor, soprano, and baritone. Many people take up the saxophone as a hobby for its expressive, versatile sound and its central role in jazz ensembles and bands.
