Hi Nina, thanks for passing by, I started to play with the alto five years ago but I just had youtube as a teacher since the place where I am living has no luck to have good teacher or mentor, and I was not very consistent in my practice as well so the result wasn't that great. I bought this tenor saxophone from Adolph Sax in Belgium three years ago and since I haven't played my alto but only this horn. I befriended one of our Facebook group's member that I loved the sound and he was kind enough to video call me and listened to me playing then gave me tips about my embouchure, breathing, etc and that was all during this lock down period, And I personally felt that there was a big change with my sound and even the ease of playing higher register after those little correction with that friend and I'm grateful. I think anybody can do so. let me know if you have any other questions.
This is great! Have you always played the tenor or did you start off with the alto?
