Saxophone player here for about 19 years now. Started when I was 11. It may be a little frustrating for some at first but that's normal! I first started off in middle school, and it was frustrating for me, but I kept at it and improved. And the more I played it the more I understood the instrument and it was making more sense. As with any instrument, practice always makes perfect. Don't be discouraged one bit if you're stuck on playing a note, or getting the fingerings right. Take it one step at a time and move on to the next one. Before you know it you'll be capturing the ladies at the club. lol

I played alto sax in band in middle school for two years, but my original instrument pick was drums. I taught myself how to play drums at age 5 and was already playing in church by the time I was in middle school. I picked drums, but my band teacher didn’t want female drummers so she lied and said all of her percussion spots were filled and I had to pick another instrument. I chose alto sax because my older brother played alto sax. Eventually I got a new band teacher and he allowed me to transition from alto sax to percussion. I’ve also played baritone sax. I’m just relearning some things now in remembrance of my brother. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Awesome!! You can just wash the mouthpiece out in cold water or use a simple cloth pull through. Have fun with your new sax. What kind of music do you want to learn on sax?

Love this. It has inspired me to restart. Thanks for that man. Answer to your question to who made me fall in love with the Sax? Jay Beckenstein from Spyro Gyra.

I hinted to my oldest daughter (who just started self-learning the Bass) that I might pick an instrument to learn anew as well. I’ve always loved the sound of the sax and well I think I’ll start there with the tenor. A song that inspires me is Broken Hearted Kota by Joseph Shabason - I’d relax by my fireplace with a cigar and square-bottom glass of cognac and enjoy the frequency

I played trumpet in middle school and hated playing instruments after that. But im trying to get back into playing instruments and the saxophone really speaks to me, it just sounds so beautiful even on its own. Im renting a saxophone from my local music store before i commit to a purchase. Great video for newbies!! Im interested in playing saxophone because i of the musical artist will wood having a lot of sax in his music !

I have been a fairly serious guitar player since 1988. I saw John Jorgensen playing alto sax at a show where he played numerous instruments (he’s a legend on guitar) and it just seemed really cool that he switched to sax and did a solo on a Stones song. It looked fun so I am thinking about getting a sax. I also have a banjo, mandolin, lap steel, ukulele but never a sax so why not? Thanks.
