Time To Train: Coaching For Saxophone


As I mentioned in a previous post, I have started to learn the Saxophone as it was a long time ambition. I have made some progress with the Hite premier mouth piece, and getting a nice sound. I have been using the tune a day book and trying to supliment that with inspirational lessons from YouTube like this one from Nigel McGill.






From my time learning the clarinet I can see I have made progress adapting to the Sax. It is quite a different embouchure and breathing technique in a way and the very low notes present a particular problem as they require very fine control on the reed.




To try and learn faster I have decided to take some lessons and have found a teacher in East London.




Before you suggest I play something here I should say that piece above is 'inspiring' and currently completely unattainable :-)
