Oh yeh baby! Sax section leader next year! I feel proud of myself. Well it's kinda by default, I'm the only senior on sax next year, but I'm sure my summer lessons will sure be worth by band camp.

Hi! I'm currently learning how to play tenor sax, having been a clarinet player for about 4-5 years now.
I've only been playing for a few weeks now, and have a question about the lower octave.
When I try to play anything in the lower octave from G on, it goes into the upper. I'm not really sure how to fix it as I haven't been able to ask lately. If anyone could help out, that'd be awesome!

I'm an alto sax player. I've been playing since September. biggrin
@Tennispro13: The only advice I can give you is to put some time aside in your schedule to practice. Practice makes perfect!

I was just wondering if the brand LA Sax was a good brand for saxophones or not. I found one on the net for about $1200 and was wondering if it was a good sax or not and if it is worth buying. Here is a url to the site. http://www.wwbw.com/LA-Sax-211-Tenor-Saxophone-i760513.music

I play alto. I would love to play soprano but the school doesn't seem to have one. I had third chair last year as a freshman and I am the only girl in my section. *represent* 3nodding
I named my sax Yam, anyone else name their babys? (sorry if this has already been asked)

Actually, the saxophone section this year is outnumbered by girls. xd Three guys, five girls. Whoo! xd
As for naming my saxophone, I can't think of a good name. :[

tennispro13 i want to try and be better at alto saxanyone have any advice??????? Yeah. Practice every night, check your ombeshure when you play, go ahead in the class and try your best to be better than all the rest of people in your class. That's what I did and I was first chair for half of the year.

I hate it when people quit. That's what made our 8th grade band so tiny last year...9 people...:[ Combining with horrible 7th graders is not fun.
That's an awesome name. xd I'll probably come up with one randomly while talking to a friend after I've had chocolate or something. xd
