Hi, I signed up for this forum because frankly I know nothing about saxophones but I love jazz and I am learning how to play tenor sax for a band. I have been playing for about 4 months and I think I’m doing okay. I am going to have a lot of questions so be prepared!!

Hi @Isil and welcome to the Cafe,

As an exclusive tenor sax player, I think you made the right choice!
It's great to read that after 4 months you think you're doing oke.

Feel free to shoot with (= 'post') any questions that you may have. From 'playing sax' to 'playing in a band'.

Cafe members are a friendly bunch and always more than happy to help and support any sax players with less experience.

So welcome, and don't hold back on any questions!

Thank you for being so welcoming!

Thank you for being so welcoming!

Cafe members are all welcoming. Even if most don't directly reply to your 'Intro post'.

I've been a member of the cafe for at least 15 years. And I've never - by far - found a more welcoming, friendly, supportive, helpful and informative forum than the cafe. That includes a few other forums that I'm a member of, related to (for example) playing sax, photography, genealogy and other 'personal interests'.

So you've come to a good place!

Mike

Hello @Isil , welcome to the Café. Looking forward to hearing more about your experience and answering your questions. Is sax your first musical instrument ? Lots of members here play more than one type of instrument.
