ABSTRACT:
A key mechanism for musical wind instruments such as a saxophone is comprised of a plurality of, generally four sets of, collectively arranged flat finger pieces at least one of which is provided with a sinking incline in a rim portion adjacent to neighboring finger piece or pieces in order to enable smooth shifting of the little finger point on the key mechanism. More preferable, at least one of the finger pieces is provided with a rising incline in a rim portion remote from neighboring finger piece or pieces in order to block excessive finger point shifting.
