The Tenor has a great sound. It's widely used in rock, pop and jazz music. If it’s a tenor sax that you really want, then go for it! Enthusiasm is so important. It's fine to start on tenor from the beginning as it's really just a bigger alto and it's generally as easy for an adult to start on tenor as it is for a child to start on alto
Someone once described playing the Baritone as like blowing through your central heating system! It is a very large instrument with a wonderful deep tone but definitely not a beginners instrument. Also described by Jools Holland as being the sexiest sound in the world! The cheapest baritones cost in excess of £1,500 so start saving.
