Bit of background, my saxophone is a relatively new purchase. I'm a first instrument clarinettist playing at around LRSM (diploma) standard. Now, I'm interested in learning Jazz with my saxophone and have started playing simple tunes (mainly out of abracadbra saxophone and james rae modern studies) then adding a section of improvisation, then going back to the theme to end.
Really enjoying it with my sax but would like to progress, tips, tricks, ideas much appreciated!
Eventually, I'd like to beable to play my sax with others (in a big band etc.) but at the moment I feel like it's a whole new thing to me!
Should I be thinking about working through something like the abrsm jazz grades as a starting point on my journey?
