No, it's not a celeste, which has softer bars, a damper, and a prominent

At our music centre we have both a wind band and a wind ensemble. The
ensemble is much smaller than the band and uses orchestral instruments
only (no saxes then) but the main distinction is in the repertoire,
the ensemble being very much a chamber music group.
The saxophone may not be a regular member of the orchestra, but in 20th-century (and beyond) repertoire, it is a frequent guest, more so then certain other instruments such as alto clarinet, or bass flute for instance. I know of well over 2000 pieces of orchestral music which uses saxophone(s) as

You may be correct, but I certainly read the
definitions as meaning glockenspiel with a
keyboard. I think the modern tendency to refer
to mallet instruments as keyboards simply
clouds the issue, whether it is organologically
correct or not.

Richard,
Just to clarify the terminology: there is no such thing as the full

Kontakt Player is included in Finale (as well as the Garritan

Kontakt is a full-blown sampler,
