This is due to where you sit in relationship to the toneholes of the saxophone. Second, there is a sound difference to the player – but not so much so to the audience or anyone listening to you play. However, for the soprano player who needs to rely on the assistance of a neck strap, the curved soprano sits in a way that allows for more weight to be handled by a strap than a traditional straight soprano would allow. For some this is good but for others this is bad as it can lead to an overall cramped feel. The horn is much closer to the player than any straight soprano would be. So these opinions on this subject are that of Dave Kessler:įrist, the biggest difference is the feel. There are many opinions on this topic and in the end, some of the differences will rely on the individual player. The bronze can make the SC992 a hair more resistant, which is a problem for players who don’t practice their soprano like its a separate instrument (“I’m an alto player therefore I’m a soprano player” – the “casual” soprano player), but when played properly, results in a soprano that is lush in tonal warmth!Ĭurved vs. The use of bronze helps give the SC992 a richer, lush tone compared to the brass equivalent model (SC991). The copper is the primary focus here as it adds more mass to the alloy. Bronze is an alloy that consists of Copper & Tin but with around 88-90% of it being copper.
Standard brass is an alloy comprised of Copper & Zinc, with about 70% of that alloy being copper. Bronze is a heavier alloy compared to brass.
