Jeez! That's tiny! I thought that they'd be like 20 inches. That's only 4 inches longer than a soprillo!

Does anyone know where I can find a picture of a curved sopranino and an alto next to each other- for comparison?

you could find a picture of a curved sopranino at the ORSI sax website from italy. the same company that makes the curved nino and contrabass sax for L.A. SAX. anthony braxton and jay easton plays the Orsi contabass sax.

That's a great picture thank you. Does anyone know of a comparison pic of a soprillo and an alto?
