I don’t know much about saxophones, but presumably if the jazz club is called the Cafe Alto this saxophone is an Alto Sax.
The saxophone was invented by Belgian instrument maker Adolphe Sax in 1846. It is a woodwind instrument commonly associated with jazz music.
I also assume that the club is frequented by many saxophonists. If you fancy becoming a saxophonist yourself, you will need to be prepared to spend between 2000 and 8000 US Dollars to buy a new one.
The jazz club is just off the the square called Leidesplein, one of the busiest and popular centres for nightlife in Amsterdam. It is on the road called Korte Leidsedwarsstraat.
