Which saxophone should I buy? more details?

vintage horn



I have been playing the alto for 5 years, I’m in a high school band, and I want to step up to an intermediate or professional horn. I have about a 2000 budget, and I have looked at

Yamaha YAS475
Yamaha YAS62II
custom z’s are a little too much, but if I can get the money are they really good saxophones?
Selmer LaVoix
Jupiter 769GN

Those are the only ones I know of, any more suggestions? I don’t think I need a vintage horn if I’m in high school. Thanks!

Bach Sonata No. 1 Violin Sound Sample, French Violin




Excerpt is from the Bach Sonata #1 in G minor (Bach Sonatas and Partitas). The violin is a very fine antique instrument made in the mid 19th century in Paris, France. One of the most beautiful instruments I’ve ever. At the end of the video, I tried to show the amazing micromosaic mother of pearl inlays in the double purfling outer band.
