I have a soft spot in my heart for the saxophone since I played clarinet for a while when a grasshopper. My teacher was a man named Alfred "Squeaky" Sculco who played trumpet. For some reason he recorded under a pseudonym when he backed up Peggy Lee on some of her early recordings.
What brand of soprano are you playing in the You Tube video about Jody Jazz mouthpieces? It's one of the few sopranos that I like the sound of. Of course the player has something to do with that.
If the Saxophone Didn't Exist We Would Have To Invent It
Ravel and Debussy, whose lives overlapped with Sax, both wrote for the saxophone, but perhaps after Sax died.
Sax is one of the "3 famous Belgians who everyone thinks is French". The other 2 are Cesar Franck and Django Reinhardt.
