Hi Everybody,
I'm recently retired and living in England. I played clarinet at school, so many, many years ago, and have attempted to play alto and tenor sax over the years since then, but never managed to get to a really proficient level; just stumbled along. Anyway, for a couple of years I've had this need to have a go at Baritone, but of course, they ain't cheap, so it's never happened. Well, I've sort of decided that at this stage in my life, I should be allowed to make things happen, so I'm going to get the money together and give it a go. Whilst I get there I've still got a clarinet, so I'm going to get the fingers and brain working with that; given that reading was always a weak point, especially swing time, it will be time well spent.
