The Yamaha Tenor Venova YVS 140 Wind Instrument offers you the rich, deep tone of a tenor saxophone, with the simple playability of a recorder. Perfect for beginners and experienced musicians alike, this unique-looking instrument offers a great introduction to woodwind instruments for total novices, or a breath of fresh air and inspiration for veteran sax players. Just like a saxophone, the Venova is a highly expressive single-reed instrument capable of achieving subtle nuances and inflections depending on the way the player blows. Tuned in the key of C, and with a range of two octaves, this is a great instrument for bringing along to jam sessions and getting stuck right in, and its modern styling and luscious sound are sure to turn heads!
