As for me, I play Alto and Bari sax as well, Tenor sax, tried a Soprano sax a couple times, Flute, Clarinets, Tuba, Trombone, Bass Trombone, and percussion. I've done them all in the band for years, but I major in Alto Sax. I also have been playing Tuba for a while in Band, and before, I played a lot of Trombone, and Bass Trombone. I don't play much Flute, Clarinet, or Percussion, because there's a surplus of them (why I switched down to Tuba) but I am able to play all major scales, arpeggios, and sightreading pieces on all.

I don't do high brass. =S I've formed an embouchure that can do low brass and reeds, but high brass.. ow.. I can't even do two octaves on a trumpet. I will one day, though.. my Private teacher plays them all, and professionally.
We have a thing called Enhancement (ENH), which is a 50 minute study hall thing, and it's based on a 6 day rotation where you sign up to go to a certain class room, and some days you go to clubs that you're in. And I have band on 2 of those days, so I get some practice. Right now I'm in Marching Band, Concert Band, Symphonic Band, Jazz Band, and Sax Ensemble. The only one I think I will need to practice for is Jazz since I haven't had much experience with jazz.
