I usually always have to push in, when i was sharp it was a temperature issue and just waited for my horn to warm up.

I am a bit torn on what to play in jazzband.
For years i've been playing first tenor spot and i am pretty comfortable there.
Especially since i get alot of solo time. Recently i've been playing alot of alto and have been getting a better lead sound. We just recently lost our lead alto player and he was quite talented and has some big shoes to fill. I could play his part and take over but i love playing the first tenor spot so much and dont want to give it away to the second tenor. Since he's not as good a soloist as i am. My director would rather have me on first tenor so he could just throw all teh solos at me but i'm really enjoying playing alto so i'm kinda torn as to what to do.

I play the Alto. I want to play the Bari but someone *cough* WAR-ARES-WAR *cough* is a bit of a germ-a-holic. So I'm waiting for Mr. M to let me switch.

SO much. Oh my gosh. I am first of five altos at our school. They're all not that great, and I wish I could just play alone, or with a really good second partner.

I play Tenor, Alto, Soprano, and Bari.
It's actually alot of work being the only tenor/soprano in the band.

Gorshade I play Tenor, Alto, Soprano, and Bari. It's actually alot of work being the only tenor/soprano in the band. how is it a lot of work? it shouldn't be...it'd be just the same if there were more. or at least it should be the same.

Well, Soprano not so much. But when playing tenor.
You might have to work a bit harder when playing a part that might have been meant for at least 4 tenors rather than 1.
Then again. My concert bands at just... obese.
And some sections cant be quiet...
*cough trumpets*
