A short introduction: I used to be a teacher of WW (flute, clarinet and sax), but for some years I’ve been head at a school of arts. Recently I stepped back and startet teaching again. This led me to buy a tenor and an alto. I never stopped playing the flute and never stopped wanting to play the tenor.
Now, being a part time teacher, I have time on my hands to play saxophone in a big band and flute in a wind band and some project orchestras (classical flute).
In search for information on saxophones and saxophone playing, I found this forum - full of useful info!
My handle refers to the fact that I have formal education as a flutist and flute teacher.
Who’s my idols? Among many, you'll find Dave Brubeck, Stan Getz (the bossa sessions), Gerry Mulligan and Chet Baker (!), the first jazz musician I heard.
