Le nom d'Adolphe Sax ne dit sans doute rien à la plupart des gens, et pourtant cet inventeur est à l'origine d'un des instruments de musique les plus célèbres au monde : le saxophone, qui porte directement son nom.
L'instrument, devenu emblématique du jazz et présent dans de nombreux autres genres musicaux, doit sa création à ce facteur d'instruments dont le travail reste largement méconnu du grand public malgré la popularité de son invention.
Le rappel de cette origine invite à redécouvrir la figure d'Adolphe Sax, dont le nom est resté associé pour toujours à l'instrument qu'il a conçu.
