LEARN, PLAY, SHARE This year, we're delighted to be able to present a new student instrument: the Prodige alto saxophone. It is the fruit of exceptional digital design (C.A.O.) and traditional know-how. The PRODIGE alto saxophone completes a range of student instruments specially designed to get you started and accompany you during your apprenticeship. Particular care has been taken to adapt the saxophone to the characteristics of a young, beginner music school audience: Lighter to reduce the weight of the instrument, notably to relieve pressure on the neck and wrist of the right hand. The keywork has been designed to match the morphological characteristics of children's hands. Emission has been facilitated throughout the instrument, and more specifically in the low register Its sturdiness is also perfectly suited to the rental fleets of the establishments offering it, and to the somewhat rough use of the youngest musicians, thanks to its reinforced architecture which provides excellent mechanical stability. Equipped with their Prodige alto saxophone, young musicians can give free rein to their budding musical inspiration, individually or in groups. Its practical, sturdy case will enable them to carry it anywhere, effectively protecting it from mechanical and thermal shock.

Saxophone:new bowl, body, breech and bell in varnished brass, leather pads with metal resonators, blued steel springs Accessories:ergonomic cord, swab handkerchief, mouthpiece set, ligature and mouthpiece cover Case:Backpack
