Hi all,
My name is Aaron and I'm glad to be here! I live in Greensboro, NC USA along with my amazing wife, son, and wonderful Lab/beagle mix, Macy. I started playing the saxophone in 4th grade, and it was my focus for the rest of my academic days. After graduating in '00 with a music degree, life took me down other paths, and I ended up taking a 16-year hiatus from music and from the horn. Social unrest, the coronavirus pandemic, and an overall sense that something was missing brought me back to the saxophone this past May, when I bought a used Yamaha 62 alto. I then bought a Yamaha 62 tenor in June, and since that time, I've only missed about 5 days of practice. I'm having a blast! I've spent way too much on mouthpieces and reeds since then, but luckily, I have a super-supportive and encouraging wife.
Thanks for reading. I look forward to continued learning and virtual sax-related conversation here at Cafe Saxophone!
Best regards,
Aaron
