My mom bought me a cheap sax which turned out to be a Buescher C Tenor. I already have an alto sax. What music do you use for playing the C Tenor?

If you want to play unaccompanied, you can use all your alto sax music, tenor music or any other sax music. If you want to play accompanied by other instruments, you will have to have music for a C instrument. The flute, recorder, oboe, bassoon, piano, violin are all C instruments, but their range might not correspond exactly to your sax. Alternatively, you could use Tenor Sax music and transpose everything down a tone (play all the written D's as C's and so on).

Uh oh. They don't make many C Tenors, and the same goes for the music. My advice to you is to transpose the music for B flat tenor up one whole step for now but don't plan on joining any jazz bands any time soon.
