This is what happens when one leaves linguistic matters to the ignorant and prejudiced.

Let me suggest instead "A sublimity of saxes."

Nothing new yet. Benedikt is beavering away in the workshop, as ever, the first run of bass saxes should be ready "soon", then he has some Tubaxes to build...

I owe him a mail anyway, so I'll ask if he can be a little more concrete. One thing he did ask me to mention - some time in the spring I wrote to the list that the price of the bass sax was 14.500 euros. This is the price including German sales tax. For export it's 12.500, as it leaves the workshop.
