Saxophone in the jazz band

It all started with Adolphe Sax, a Belgian instrument inventor. In 1842, he attached a clarinet mouthpiece to a brass creation and named it the saxophone. Because of its metal, conical body, the saxophone was capable of playing at volumes much higher than other woodwinds. Used in military bands in the 1800s, it took a while for the saxophone to be taken seriously by musicians. Now, it is a staple instrument in jazz and also has a role in music genres ranging from classical to pop.

El Saxofón en las bandas de Jazz

Todo comenzó con Adolphe Sax, un inventor de instrumentos belga. En 1842, conectó una boquilla de clarinete a una creación de bronce y la llamó saxofón. Debido a su cuerpo metálico y cónico, el saxofón era capaz de tocar a volúmenes mucho más altos que otros instrumentos de viento de madera. Utilizado en bandas militares en el siglo XIX, el saxofón tardó un tiempo en ser tomado en serio por los músicos. Ahora, es un instrumento básico en el jazz y también tiene un papel en los géneros musicales que van desde lo clásico hasta lo pop.

Halloween’s origins date back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-in). The Celts, who lived 2,000 years ago in the area that is now Ireland, the United Kingdom and northern France, celebrated their new year on November 1.

This day marked the end of summer and the harvest and the beginning of the dark, cold winter, a time of year that was often associated with human death. Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. On the night of October 31 they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth.
