    I recently joined band going into sixth grade, and finally was able to play my instrument. I thought I would never be able to play, yet I practiced this every opportunity I had and memorized it. This helps so very much. Thank you💕

    I’ve been on clarinet for about 4-5 years. I had to switch to Alto for marching season because all our alto players graduated. I have a lot of experience with many instruments so switching wasn’t too bad. However I’m a senior now and I have been getting pretty good at the instrument. I want to surprise my band with this for our Christmas party. I’m excited because they have no idea I’m learning it- they thought they escaped the song and yes they did for a bit because I was new…but now I will do the saxophone nation justice and play it with one of my old friends who played last year as a alto sax player. We ride at dawn! I’m going out with a bang and a careless one at that 😏😉

    I must say, this is the best and most friendly channel for beginners to learn sax. My 11 year old son is learning careless whisper right now at this moment. Our goal is learn to play the whole song in this spring break. I can’t thank this channel enough.

    I play clarinet but recently I've been trying the alto sax. My dad's saxophone still works so I've been using that, and I really like your tutorials. I might have to switch in the future for jazz band bc the highschool doesn't let clarinets join. So I'd be playing sax for jazz band and probably sticking to clarinet for regular.

    just wanted to let you know that you can’t just copy over the same notes for alto and move them to tenor. alto is keyed in E flat and tenor is keyed in B flat, so you can’t use the same notes. the original careless whisper is keyed in E flat specifically for also saxophone, but if you’re going to write it for tenor you have to transpose the music so it is keyed in B flat.
