From the woodwind family and commonly known as Sax, this instrument of rich timbre and agile mechanics has a tradition in jazz and Brazilian music. The objective of the saxophone lessons of the Quarteirão da Música is to develop the sonority, tuning, technique, reading and improvisation.
After choosing between the high Saxophone and tenor Saxophone (more low-pitched), the student learns typing, embouchure, musical notation, scales, and other requirements needed to act as soloist or as accompaniment in various musical styles.
