I am an alto player and I have been studying jazz playing - but I some way off being good enough to play live. My other musical love is reggae/ska/rocksteady, and I see this as a much more realistic chance of playing in a band. I do have a tenor but my sound on this is nowhere near as good as on alto. Does anyone have any experience of playing alto in a reggae/ska band? Or to be in demand is it a case of persevering with tenor?
Also does anyone have any tips for successful ska/reggae playing - heavy use of certain scales such as pentatonics?
