First a little history...

The curved soprano saxophone has been around for about a century, but until recently hasn't been a great favourite of serious musicians - probably because they usually have had a fairly compact sound, poor intonation and felt a bit like a toy.

We have addressed these issues and are pleased to report that players are thrilled with our soprano saxes.
