hello everyone, in my quests to unravel the mysteries of jazz theory i came up to this site and i am looking forward to venture deeper into the maze... hehe
I used to play the sax when i was a kid, mostly because my dad used to listen to a lot of old rock and roll and jazz. hovewer i soon became frustrated with it, i couldnt play in a band with other friends , i couldnt just learn a few chords like on the guitar, and i couldnt really appreciate jazz at the time... hence i stopped and decided to become a dj (yes i kno many of you probably thinking "oh my god") well anyway i didnt succeed in that either. As the years went on med school was taking up most of my time and i found it very difficult to get back into playing music. However i did fell in love with jazz. Well know university is finished and although i still dont have all the time in the world in my hands i decided that i have to get back to playing sax. I managed to get over the remorse and self blame of why i did stop in the first place and decided that rather than giving up and saying that thats it i lost my chance to be good sax player just to get back into it at the pace i have time to and enjoy playing that little bit everytime. That is my little story, i am sure that 10 years down the line i am going to be gratefull for taking this first step again.
