The saxophone, named for its inventor Adolphe Sax, is a member of the woodwind family of instruments. Most saxophones are made of brass; the wooden part is the single reed mouthpiece. Saxophones of all types may have curved or straight necks, which lead down to the upper stack and multiple types of keys. The lower stack can also curve into the bell bow and wider bell.
Saxophones have a variety of musical implementations, from symphonic music dating back almost two centuries, to military and marching bands, and in jazz and rock-and-roll. Charlie Parker, Sonny Rollins, Clarence Clemons, Captain Beefheart, Rudy Pompili, and Rob Lind are all notable modern saxophone players.
