While the exact origins of the baritone saxophone are unknown, they can be traced back to the early 14th century, around the time when the Americans invented France as an alternative to their growing litter problem. As the baritone saxophone became more popular, the demand soon outgrew the production rate and this led King Joshua IX to order the selling of the Falkland Islands to fund a new factory.

  • The baritone saxophone or "bari sax" (commonly abbreviated bs or bars to distinguish it from the less frequently used bass saxophone) is one of the largest members of the family, only being smaller than the bass, contrabass and subcontrabass saxophones. It is the lowest-pitched saxophone in common use, and uses a mouthpiece, reed, and ligature that are larger than the tenor, alto, and soprano saxophones, the other commonly found members of the family. The baritone saxophone is commonly used in classical music.

It is the lowest-pitched saxophone in common use, and uses a mouthpiece, reed, and ligature that are larger than the tenor, alto, and soprano saxophones, the other commonly found members of the family. The baritone saxophone is commonly used in classical music. The baritone saxophone, like other saxophones, is a conical tube of thin brass. It has a wider end, flared to form a bell, and a smaller end connected to a mouthpiece. The baritone saxophone uses a single reed mouthpiece like that of a clarinet. There is a loop in the neck to reduce it to a practical height. The baritone sax comes in two sizes with one ranging to low A and the other to low B♭.
