If you're on the prowl for an outstanding professional soprano sax, the Growling Sax Uprise Series soprano deserves your serious consideration. A true player's horn. Growling Sax lavished painstaking attention on their robust key system to provide you with confident fingering, which you'll particularly appreciate during fast, difficult passages. But whether you're finessing an adagio line or firing off a flurry of notes, you'll appreciate the fluid, synergistic response of this superb saxophone as your fingertips savor the luxurious feel of its elegant mother-of-pearl key touches.

Sonically, you'll be rewarded with a sweet, warm tone and strong projection, making this horn ideal for jazz, classical, pop, and other genres. The height-adjustable palm keys are a thoughtful feature, comfortably fitting the curvature of your hand. If you change your hand position as your technique advances, the Growling Sax Uprise soprano is an instrument that will evolve along with you on your career trajectory. With its smoothly ergonomic keywork and responsive action powered by blued steel springs - the professional standard for durable, perfectly tensioned keywork - the Uprise Series soprano is a true player's horn. The Growling Sax Uprise Series soprano has several unique, performance-enhancing features that will nurture your technique and advance your continuing development as an artist.

The first thing you'll notice is the extra-large bell, which assists in projecting the horn's powerful sound. Also notable are its rolled tone holes, which provide a larger surface area for the pads to make contact with.

Painstakingly crafted, the tone holes are individually drawn and rolled. This not only gives you longer pad life; many saxophonists feel it delivers a broader sound with faster response and increased projection, as compared with horns that have straight toneholes. The Uprise soprano's premium Pisoni pads (another pro industry standard) provide a leak-free, airtight fit while delivering a big, bright, and assertive tone that brings your notes to life. As do all Growling Sax instruments, the Uprise Series soprano is equipped with a custom mechanism that provides additional support to prevent the G# and low C# keys from sticking (a common issue with many saxophones). Other Uprise Series features include premium brass construction and beautiful artisanal hand engraving.
