is there such thing as a sax mute; if so, what are your recommendations?

Sax mutes are real, they don't work too well though. Try a rag down the bell and this will have the same effect for much less cost.

The real alternative is to play softer, this can be s challenge on a loud Bari but it is achievable with practise. Usually though bari players need to be louder unless they play Vintage Conns.

Remember the quote

"If you don't want to be heard, don't play Bari."

I wonder who that is credited to?
