Tried an 1867 alto!

[Jur]

Last Sunday in a musical instruments museum I was given the chance to try an original 1867 Adolphe Sax alto. The instrument felt very light and of course the key work wasn't quite what I'm used to with my Yanagisawa! :? Still a very nice experience, which makes you appreciate the inventor of our beloved horns!

How did it sound? And what about it compared with mdern horns the most, what was the most different(from a playing perpective you know, we've all seen pictures I think)
