I play tenor sax..
Well, actually, I play flute, but I learned tenor over the summer!
So I joined jazz band. It rocks.
It's given me a new take on all music!
I don't know...maybe I was bored with flute?...
I'm just so excited about it!
I gotta get a lesson on my jazz band music.
We're playing:
Feeling the Funk
Dos Gatos Bailando
C-Jam Blues
and...something else.
I can't remember!
Is that sad if you can only remember what you're playing for concert band?
Xx

Tubariffic Alas there is no jazz tuba -emo- Yes there is. Check out a song called, ah what is it again... "Tastes Like Chicken". There's a Tuba part in it. The last festival we went to we saw a Tuba player playing in that piece.

If you play tuba and want to play jazz, learn bass trombone, there's a lot of jazz that have awesome bass-bone parts. Unfortunately, our Jazz band dissolves every year because our director is too busy with symphonic orchestra.

I play trombone in jazz band... I suck! crying And next year's most probable candidate for section leader has threatened me with more parts. even though I probably won't play loud enough to do them justice. I have no clue how you people play jazz! It's so hard!

Hi guys! I've been looking a lot into improvising lately and my mom found this great book called Building a Jazz Vocabulary. It shows you all the basics of improv-ing (though it doesn't explain them for beginners, really; I had to ask one of my directors to explain some stuff >_>) and it's totally awesome. Here's a link if you're interested: http://www.amazon.com/Building-Jazz-Vocabulary-Mike-Steinel/dp/0793521610

Fallaryn I play the french horn in jazz. Have been doing so for the past two years, and I helped the jazz band get golds and silvers from last year and the year before from different performances and stuff. But this year I have to transpose the music myself from the trombone music. Yes, I play the trombone music -- there's only one other trombone in jazz band, and then there's four trumpets, two alto saxes, and three tenor saxes (I can't keep track of who's in the percussion section). I fear doing jazz solos. ;_; jazz horn... i've heard OF it... but not it ever... how's it like?
