Done ..... thanks Uzi I was curious to know what a saxello was ...... this from wikipedia - "A number of saxophone-related instruments have appeared since Sax's original work, most enjoying no significant success. These include the saxello, straight B♭ soprano, but with a slightly curved neck and tipped bell; the straight alto; and the straight B♭ tenor (currently not in production; until recently, made only by a Taiwanese firm and imported to the United States by the http://www.lasaxophones.com/straight.htm - L.A. Sax Company ). Since a straight-bore tenor is approximately five feet long, the cumbersome size of such a design hinders both playing the horn (particularly when seated) and carrying it. King Saxellos, made by the H. N. White Company in the 1920s, now command prices up to US$4,000. A number of companies, including Rampone & Cazzani and L.A. Sax, are marketing straight-bore, tipped-bell soprano saxophones as saxellos (or "saxello sopranos"). Two of these variants were championed by jazz musician http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rahsaan_Roland_Kirk - Rahsaan Roland Kirk , who called his straight Buescher alto a stritch and his modified saxello a manzello; the latter featured a larger-than-usual bell and modified keywork. Among some saxophonists, Kirk's terms have taken a life of their own in that it is believed that these were "special" or "new" saxophones that might still be available. Though rare, the Buescher straight alto was a production item instrument while the manzello was indeed a saxello with a custom made bell." |

Very interesting - I haven't noticed this. Maybe because I am not a sax player ... ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Rivertree" rel="nofollow"> |
