Best Answer

The Saxophone is easier by far. The violin requires precise fingering on strings that have no guides to show you where to place your fingers. On the saxophone, you simply hold down the correct combination of buttons to produce a specific pitch. That is the main reason the sax is easier than the violin.

What are the differences between a violin and a saxophone?

Well, first of all the violin is a string instrument while the saxophone is a wood wind instrument because it has a reed. Second, the violin is played with a bow (arco) or sometimes plucked (pizzicato), while the saxophone is played by the player blowing air into a mouth piece. Last, the Violin is an orchestral instrument while the saxophone is a band instrument. There are many other reasons as to what makes these instruments different, but these are a start...

How are saxophones and clarinets related?

The clarinet is a million times easier than the saxophone in every aspect. First because clarinet is just like piano where the notes are very easy. But on saxophone there are extra flats and sharps, you have to study things that you don't have to on clarinet, you need more air for saxophone, and the saxophone is very heavy! On clarinet you learn how to play all the notes in less than a month. If you play saxophone you learn the notes in more than 5 months! The saxophone is a lot harder! If you play saxophone, you need to layer your fingering more precisely too. Also they are tuned differently too. So if you play in a concert, the notes you play will be very confusing on the saxophone. Also the clarinet is very light. So it will be very easy to play clarinet than saxophone. So for my opinion clarinet is easier. People out there who think sax is easier, you are wrong. Clarinet is a million times easier than the saxophone in every aspect. Also for saxophone you need more air for blowing. You get tired more easily too. I admit clarinet squeaks a lot. But once you get used to it, you will stop squeaking. People out there who think sax is easier, you are wrong. Clarinet is much easier than the saxophone. Also for saxophone you need more air for blowing. You get tired more easily too. I admit clarinet squeaks a lot. But once you get used to it, you will stop squeaking. I play clarinet and saxophone and I can't keep up with saxophone. So please when you consider on choosing your instrument between clarinet and saxophone, choose clarinet.
