Saxophone structure
The saxophone is a metal wind instrument with buttons, whose invention dates back to the 1800s in Belgium. This instrument belongs to the clarinet family and is divided into four models: alto, tenor, soprano, and baritone, which differ in size, shape, and sound. In general, the saxophone consists of parts that include the trumpet, which is connected to the main body by an arch. Keys and their protectors are located along the main body. The work of these keys is that they close the holes on the saxophone due to being compressed and as a result, the notes are created. By moving upwards, you go reach the neck, where the opening or the mouthpiece of the instrument is located at the end. (There is no bow part in the soprano saxophone). This instrument is made of metal and usually brass, and it is not considered among the symphony orchestra instruments. Some of the most famous saxophone players include Sidney Becht, Ben Webster, Charlie Parker, Stan Getz, Michael Brecker, and Ornette Coleman.
Music in Cologne
Cologne, once home to the Popkomm pop show and the German rock center from BAP to Klaus Lage is now less active in the music industry. Many independent artists, such as Peter Leach, Kelly, or Erdobble, appreciate this far-fetched position for its freedom. The father of pop music in Cologne are members of the international rock band Can. The genre of rock in music, which originated in the early 1970s, is now world-renowned. In addition, the city is very popular due to various music carnivals.
