Introduction Hi

[cookede]

Hello from deepest Dorset (UK)
I am a beginner saxophone player, but not new to music. I have only been playing for just over a month, and have many qusetions. Some of which have already been answered whilst perusing this excellent site.

My main problem at the moment is that my mind races ahead of my fingers as I can read music fluently plus the added issue of unconsciously reverting to trumpet fingering.

The great thing is though that I am having so much fun picking up and learning to play a new instrument after a considerable lay off.
I hope to learn many things from this site and the folks of the forum
PS my saxophone is an alto yamaha 25 something
cheers for now Dave

Hi Dave and welcome to the Breakfast Room, sounds like you are taking the right approach and the yamaha 25 something is a good horn.

(PS See you private messages)

Hi Dave and welcome from Herts. Dorset is a fine county. Enjoy your alto.

Cheers, Bob

Curses. I wish I had your problem. I have some other interesting ones if you'd like to trade 😉

don't worry, soon enough you'll be playing saxophone fingerings on the trumpet.
