If you don't know what you're doing be careful, because you need to know how to keep it in tune. Think about starting on a clarinet - fingering is similar, and much easier to learn on.

I think that 'playing a saxophone' must be a euphonium......

Chris123 is right. Get a clarinet first. Much cheaper to purchase, and easier to learn on. IMHO it has a nicer sound too, but it is definitely the way to start.

get a job doing classical music in an orchestra. that way, you get to sit for two hours, and only bang out a couple of notes all night.
