On November 6th the Search Engine Google celebrates Adolphe Sax’s 201st Birthday by showing a Doodle globally.

Antoine-Joseph "Adolf" Sax was a Belgian musical instrument designer and musician who played the flute and clarinet. And, Adolphe Sax is well known for having invented the saxophone. He also invented the

saxotromba, saxhorn and saxtuba.

Adolphe Sax was born in Belgium on 6th November 1814. While his first name was Antoine, he was referred to as Adolf from childhood. His father and mother were instrument designers themselves, who made

several changes to the design of the horn. Adolf began to make his own instruments at an early age, entering two of his flutes and a clarinet into a competition at the age of 15. He subsequently studied

performance on those two instruments as well as voice at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8V6NThrzNE&list=PLK2ccNIJVPpAlYHL7UaTP5uUs6eux28ZG
