In the Belgian city of Dinant, in a modest house built

on a street that would later bear his name,

Sax would invent the saxophone and revolutionize music

But this isn't that story, this is the story

of how Adolphe Sax escaped death seven times

Hardly old enough to stand, the young Adolphe

a bit too close to a gunpowder explosion.

He was again burned when a cast iron frying pan

Adolphe was nearly asphyxiated when recently varnished

items were left in his bedroom overnight.

Adolphe was swept up in a swift current and nearly drowned.

On February 7th, 1894, Adolphe died peacefully in Paris.

The saxophone had already crossed the Atlantic,

prime to evolve into an icon of American jazz music
