Hi my name is Rupert. I'm learning Alto Sax and Piano. I have many musical influences but mainly for saxophone I'm looking to play Soul,Rock n Roll and the Blues. I'm asking for help around what sort of daily routines and practices I should be incorporating into my playing. Also If anyone could help me by suggesting artists I should be listening to that will help me at a basic level? I'm up to my grade 3. As much input as possible from this community would be gratefully appreciated.
Many Thanks ๐ท๐น ๐ท๐น๐ท๐น๐ท๐น๐ท๐น๐ท๐น๐ท๐น
Iโm looking to buy an alto saxophone. In the past Iโve played brass instruments (trumpet, trombone, etc) and nowadays Iโm trying to learn guitar as well. Is there any place, website, or distributor you know that sells used OR new woodwinds for a fairly decent price? Any help is appreciated
I'm an intermediate player imo and I'm starting to practice the altissimo range, I just want some help with fingerings. I have been practicing over tones...
I played the alto sax for two years in high school but i stopped after. I want to get back into it but im not sure what beginner alto sax would be good? Something within an affordable budget.
I do plan to take a college course as well.
Does amazon sell any decent ones? Or would it have to be elsewhere?
Thank you
My air sounds like itโs leaking on middle c and d and I canโt figure out why nothing seems to be wrong with my sax (a Jupiter brand tenor if thatโs relevant) please help itโs a school owned instrument
I'm on a mission to help 10 more saxophonists receive massive results in their playing within the next year. Who is with me?
So Iโm Very new to the alto saxophone, I got it today as a gift. I was playing it (I play the flute aswell so) and I accidentally got the neck strap stuck on the saxophone and itโs not supposed to be there and I canโt get it out. PLEASE help me.
Looking to buy a baritone sax, any ideas on where to look? Looked at eBay and FB but because Iโm not a musician myself, I donโt know how to tell if it is in good working order
Hi, I learnt the flute and was able to pull my skills into the alto sax. Iโve been using a borrowed Alto Yamaha YS-23, but now I have to give it back. I have the skill and will to really give this a shot and I want to play for the long run. What is an affordable alto sax that sounds great and will last me a long time (preferably Yamaha because they are the only store that sells saxophones close to me).

Hey guys, has anyone got the Handel Sonata 3 for alto sax and piano? I live in Mexico and the physical sheet music takes a lot to arrive. If anyone could pass me a photo or anything I would appreciate it.
Hi I can buy a used 61 or 62 for my son in high school. There is a $1200 difference between the two and condition seems similar.
Is it worth the price difference to get the 62?
Thanks
