Saxophone is an atypical musical instrument, as it is one of the few instruments used in all music genres. In France it is granted a double identity, situated at the boundary between classical music and jazz, although it is the instrument that lends itself to all existing forms of classical and folk music. Thus, it passes through: late romanticism, impressionism, neoclassicism, atonal music, serial music, expressionism, contemporary music, jazz, pop, rock, punk, folk music. It was precisely this plurality that ensured the popularity of the saxophone (Berendt , 1963).
