In 1999, Tenon launched their own brand, Chateau – a significant milestone where they could finally show the world what they are actually capable of. In a crowded and often confusing market, Chateau are making their mark alongside the older established brands.
The Chateau Series 22 Tenor Saxophone is a superb instrument for musicians at all levels. Priced to appeal to the beginner and intermediate player, the Chateau TE-CTS-22GL delivers on all counts with accurate intonation, smooth action and great response from the low to high registers.
