Would it be easy  going from tenor to Bari(sax)?

My response:

It won’t be too hard. Biggest difference is probably that bari sax requires a bit more air. Your fingers go in the same places.

Depending on the two brands/models of saxophones you are switching between, it may feel more or less the same. And it’s possible you’ll have one or two more keys or one or two less keys, but that isn’t a major difference.

The parts you will play in a band can be a bit different.

Overall, I would say go with the one you like better. Or possibly the one that is more needed in your group. You can switch between them without too much difficulty if you want.
