i've been playing two saxes (alto/tenor) at once for several years and have solved most of the technical issues in playing them together...even added some extra keys to the alto to make a larger "hamonized" range with the tenor. i'd be interested in hearing of other's experiences and "issues" re. playing two (or more) saxes together...or any combinations of multi-instrument playing.

I have been playing 2 altos or one alto and a flute with a soprano reed in it for a couple years and I found that you can also rubberband some keys down to get certain ranges or play in different keys. It takes a lot of breath to play two at once but it is worth it if you can manage. Roland Kirk did three at once and I have never figured out how to do that....maybe an elbow? or two keys with one finger?
