Introduction Hi... Another new joiner..

[matth]

Well.. yesterday I picked up a new Alto sax with all the extras.. my first woodwind instrument for 20 years (since learning the claranet way back in primary school).


So currently I have a couple of book and the dvd to start working with. I did get a starter lesson when I picked up the sax.. which got me working with the first six notes (BAG FED 🙂

Should be fun..and look forward to joining in.. If any one knows of a teacher down Kent way that would be helpful as well...

cheers

Matt

A new joiner in the woodwind department, I could never get my dovetails together.
Welcome to the lounge Matt from sunny Charmany where it's almost but probably not quite as hot as the Costa del Roger.

Welcome from Croydon, the Capital of the Universe.
Just remember Linky is on commission from the Kent teachers, don't even think about what spike does with doves and do not take any advice from me. I am invariably wrong. 🙂
