The C soprano saxophone is a saxophone that is very similar to the B soprano saxophone. The difference is that the C- Soprano Saxophone, such as the C -Melody saxophone, not a transposing instrument, since the C- Soprano Saxophone is a whole step tuned higher than the B soprano saxophone between the two saxophones. Therefore, in order to be played directly scores for flute or oboe, for example, as long as they fit the range. At the beginning of the 20th century, the C soprano saxophone was sold as an alternative tool for oboe parts. C- Soprano Saxophones can be easily confused with B- soprano saxophones, as they are only about 3 inches longer. A distinguishing feature is engraved in the vicinity of the serial number "C". C-soprano saxophones were produced by the same companies such as C -Melody saxophones, eg Conn. The production period also coincides with that of the C -Melody - Saxophonezusammen, ie from 1919 until 1929. Recently, C-soprano saxes of Aquilasax restored.
