Bari-sax in Music




As I said earlier, I love music and I play the bari-sax. The bari-sax is the largest, commonly played saxohpone. It is known as being essential to the big band jazz band which is one of my favourites styles of music. One amzing group is the Gordon Goodwin Big Phat Band from the United States. Also, the saxophone is a Belgian invention by I believe it is Adolf Sax, and you should all be very proud of that. One song that features the bari-sax is Moanin. Here's one version done by Charles Mingus.





Anyways, I hope you find this all a little bit interesting, and you don't have to listen to the whole song. I realize it's a little bit long.
