Introduction Hello from Sheffield

[vaughanb]

Hi All

Just thought i'd introduce myself properly even though I've already posted in another topic.

I live in Sheffield and have been playing the sax for about 18 months and the clarinet for about 6. I'm just going through all my grades and I've just passed Grade 4 for sax. I'm hoping to do grade 3 for clarinet by Christmas. My sight reading is my achilles heel as I couldn't read music before I started playing, any handy tips would be much appreciated.

I own a Hanson tenor, bari and clarinet. I'm trying to see if they have a buy 3 get one free deal but I don't think they do! Out of the 3 I prefer playing the Bari as I find it so easy, especially as i've just bought a decent mouthpice which has made it alot nicer to play. I just have to remember the breath as I get a bit carried away!

Hi Vaughan, welcome to the Breakfast Room

Hi Vaughan
In my experience Hanson is a very accommodating company, so don't hold back from trying to do a deal with them!
The worst that might happen is that they sa 'No!'....they won't put out a contract on you 😛
(3 + 1 free might be a bit hopeful!)
