I'm Gary in San Diego, CA (USA) and a few years ago at age 67 I came back to playing tenor sax after a layoff of about 45 years, although I did play some flute (classical and some jazz) within that time span. It is surprising how quickly it has all come back - probably due to my having a really good teacher and lots of time to practice. I have been doing some local jams as well as playing with play-alongs and I am in the process of setting up a home recording studio and looking for other musicians with whom to jam. My wife has generously enrolled me for both weeks of The Jamie Aebersold Jazz Camp in Louisville, KY in July (no doubt a good way to give her ears a rest for 2 weeks). I attended last year's camp for one week and it was a great experience.
For what it's worth my present set-up is:
Keilwerth SX90R tenor
Vandoren V-16 T8 Ebonite mouthpiece
Vandoren V16 2 1/2 reeds
I am totally open to communications with everyone worldwide with an interest in sharing what they know of playing jazz tenor and look forward to hearing from you.
