I have playing the flute for 4 years now and I want to also play sax for jazz so Alto or Tenor Sax?
I have now been playing the flute for 4 years and I play at a grade 5-6 level and I love jazz, but as you all know flute is not the best instrument for jazz, so I want to also play sax. The decision now is Tenor or Alto (I prefer tenor but you probably know best. So alto or tenor?
I play alto and Tenor sax. Tenor is definitely the better instrument for jazz. Alto is more for classical stuff, like the type of music you would play on your flute. Hope this helps!
