Vito is a brand name for Leblanc USA, now part of Conn-Selmer USA. The Vito name was used for student through professional (Yanagisawa baritone saxophone) instruments. Leblanc USA was formed in 1946 by Vito Pascucci, and the French woodwind manufacturer, G. Leblanc Cie of France. 

The alto saxophone is a woodwind instrument that was invented by Belgian instrument maker Adolphe Sax (1814-1894) in the 1840s. Sax wanted to create an instrument that combined the best qualities of brass and woodwind instruments, and that could be heard outdoors and in concerts. He based his design on experiments with an ophicleed, a brass instrument with keys, and a base clarinet mouthpiece. The French government patented the saxophone in 1846, but Sax may have invented it as early as 1838.

 The alto saxophone is a conical tube with a narrow end that has a single-reed mouthpiece attached. It has a U-bend and a slightly flared bell and is made of drawn brass. The alto saxophone is pitched in the key of E♭, which is a major 6th below the written note, and uses the treble clef. It's smaller than the B♭ tenor saxophone but larger than the B♭ soprano. The alto saxophone is the most common saxophone and is used in many different styles of music, including jazz, concert bands, chamber music, and marching bands. It has a wide dynamic range and tonal qualities similar to the human voice, which makes it a prominent solo instrument in jazz. Charlie Parker, who often played the alto saxophone, is considered by many to be the greatest saxophone player in history.
