The Voice of the Saxophone is an album by the American saxophonist Don Braden, released in 1997.

[10] The Boston Herald stated, "Possessed of a great big sound, tons of soul and chops that also encompass writing, arranging and bandleading, Braden and his octet make The Voice of the Saxophone the rollicking kind of little-big-band date you rarely hear any more.

"[13] The Guardian noted that "Braden's canny arrangements don't try to recreate the original mood and his own solos, based around a warm, slightly cloudy sound and never flashy, are a pleasure to hear.

"[14] Jazziz opined, "On a program that inferred scholarship by tracing the lineage of his chosen horn, he moved from Mobley to Rivers, stressing erudition at each turn.

"[15] JazzTimes said that "Braden scored his original 'Cozy' for two flutes, clarinet and fluegelhorn to achieve the CD’s little masterwork.
