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.
 
Welcome and greetings from Spain GeorgeK.

Nothing wrong with an ex DJ. I spent sometime on the Thames riverboats hanging onto turntables as the boat rocked!

Hope you do enjoy it this time. What kind of sax are you playing?.

My spelling is orrible. I'm a foriegner too (cockney) 😱
 
Hiya foreign GeorgeK, and very welcome to the forums from Welwyn in the UK. There's all abilities of musicianship and spelling in here, but we mostly are able to understand each other, so you'll be fine.

Where are you and whar are you blowing?

Cheers, Bob
 
i am working in darlington but i am from athens originally...
i have a trevor james "the horn" classic which my teacher recomended 10 years back... from what i gather it is pretty decent beginners instrument.
By the way, how do i get access to the xtra resources??
 
Hey ther GeorgeK, Welcome to the forum. TJ is a good horn, i've got a tenor one.

Hey, nothing wrong with being a dj and nothing wrong with takng time out before going back to the sax.

All's well that ends well.

😉
