The song it will be played in is in the key of C, but the sax solo is in E (key change). Should it be an Alto or Tenor sax? And what key sax would be…

Hi,

Excuse my lack of knowledge on wind/brass instruments. I'm looking to rent a saxaphone on behalf of a friend (clarinet player) for a few weeks and have a few questions.

The song it will be played in is in the key of C, but the sax solo is in E (key change).

Should it be an Alto or Tenor sax? And what key sax would be easiest to play for that song?

Thanks!
