薩克斯管在1840年代發明時被設定為一件新的管弦樂器。 雖然後來的發展並不是太順利，薩克斯管反而成為管樂團和爵士樂的重要成員，然而在20和21世紀充滿色彩的管弦樂曲目中它也慢慢找到了自己的位置。

The saxophone was intended to be an orchestral instrument when it was invented in 1840s. It wasn’t very smooth but it slowly found its place in 20th and 21st century orchestral repertoires.

這些資料原本是為學生做的，但後來發現我應該分享給更多的人。以下我收集了柏林愛樂樂團使用了薩克斯管的音樂會。 我已經盡了力認出演奏的薩克斯演奏家，但我是個臉盲。。。所以如果我認錯人了請原諒及​告訴我。。。作品曲目是按照它的作曲家姓氏排列。你也可以把這個表當作薩克斯管弦樂片段的清單。​
​
I was doing this for my students but found that maybe it’s great to share in my blog. Here I have gathered the concerts of the Berliner Philharmoniker while they includes saxophone. I have tried my best to recognize the saxophonist(s) who is(are) playing. (I am kind of a face-blind person so please forgive me and let me know if I recognize wrong people) You can also take it as a list of saxophone orchestral excerpts. The works are order by the last name of their composers alphabetically.​ 

如果您想認真的練習薩克斯管弦樂片段（或因為面試的需要），我強烈推薦這兩本書：
I strongly recommend these 2 books if you do wanna practice the orchestral excerpts seriously (or for auditions):
​

*非常感謝澳門薩克斯管演奏家呂瀚章和俄羅斯薩克斯管演奏家Irina Yudaeva的更正和資料。
*A big thanks for Macau saxophonist Hugo Loi', and Russian saxophonist Irina Yudaeva's corrections and distributions.
