Ok Since tenor is in Bb and Alto is in G just transpose all tenor notes down 4 spaces.I go by the tuning note scale.Since Tenor starts on C and Alto starts on G thats 3 notes higher, and since Tenor is lower than Alto, u gotta go down instead of up so itll sound tha same.

So basically if one of the tenor notes is Top space G thats in staff C for Alto.

I hope this makes sense,if not please tell me.

I think you got yourself a little mixed up there. Top space G for tenor is a fourth line D for alto (concert F). Second line G on alto is third space C for tenor (concert Bb). Also, alto sax is in Eb, tenor sax is in Bb. Sorry. *makes incorrect buzzer noise*

SaxFax, just read my response I posted initially under this topic; that's all you need to know... for now. :)

Well......... Tenor is Bb and Alto is Eb. I believe if you move the Tenor up a fourth you could accomplish this.
