[12:34:28] Lou Netizen: Saxophones are almost always made of brass, but aren't considered a "brass instrument." What are they?

[12:34:52] Lou Netizen: A woodwind. Saxophones make sound with an oscillating reed, like a clarinet or oboe, where "brass" instruments produce sound by vibration of the player's lips. There are some "brass" instruments (like the cornetto and the alphorn) that aren't made of brass either. This is the kind of nonsense that happens when musicians try to use human language.
