Hello everyone,
New to this forum as I just rediscovered my love for my alto saxophone. Having recently pulled it back out of storage, my Grassi standard alto is needing some love which has lead me to this wonderful group. I've played woodwind and stringed instruments for more than 20 years now and having recently introduced my children to orchestral music and seeing the joy in learning to play it themselves I've found my passion again.
I am located near Vancouver, BC in Canada. My more recent forays into music have been around guitar and bass guitar however I'm excited to revisit the old jazz and dixieland days with my alto. My kids love Beethoven, Mozart, Vivaldi and Bach and are learning piano, violin and ukulele.
Best regards,
James
