    I love it! I really like oddball instruments and would probably play it for a day, get frustrated, and put it away. I find it 10 years later, try to play it, get frustrated and start the cycle all over again.

    It has a built-in mute and produces quite a tinny sound. I wonder what it would sound like with an open bell.

    Sounds like a Theremin to me. And "Flight of the Bumblebee" totally resurrected the 4:41 minutes of my life that I thought I had lost! 😜

    Nice effort! The Artvark SQ (with Leo van Oostrom) you mention is actually a Dutch.

    The trombone of the saxophone world! There are also slide alto saxophones too, but I think the slide soprano sounds better. This has kind of a spooky sound, almost Theremin like. If you hadn't the text saying the last piece was Flight of the Bumblebee, I'd have never known.

    heh heh heh - Jim - rare to see these things, rarer to see them demonstrated - excellent it was. Me? "Just" bought a 1949 Buescher Aristocrat 156 aka Big B - this replaces one I had stolen many years ago.

    I would love for someone to make a sliding saxophone with an actual slider. 💡 A slider that moves away from you like on a trombone, as opposed to this ruler on these joke saxophones. 😅 And even more, a family of them in C: C1 Contrabass, C2 Bass, C3 Alto-Tenor, and C4 for the soprano. 🙏🏾
