I always wanted to learn how to play the saxophone but always sucked at doing so
Well, being a woodwind instrument, I'm not surprised. They are hard to play.
Yes, do you know more about the Saxophone? i am really interested in said instrument
You came to the right person! High quality saxophones are usually made with brass with a single reed. Perhaps yours wasn't made out of brass?
Yes im pretty sure it was, it was nothing fancy just your average saxophone,, althoug i find it really interesting they are made from brass do you think that affects the sound?
I'm fairly certain it does. I do know that the instrument has a bunch of different holes that make different sounds when depressed - quite similar to the clarinet.
Ok so would it be similar to how a flute works too?
and popular music. Saxophone players are called "saxophonists".
Since the first saxophone was invented by the Belgian instrument maker Adolphe Sax in the early 1840s, saxophones have been produced in a variety of series distinguished by transpositions within instrument sets and tuning standard. Sax patented the saxophone on 28 June 1846, in two groups of seven instruments each. Each series consisted of instruments ranked by pitch, in alternating transposition. The series pitched in B and E soon became dominant and most saxophones encountered today are from this series.
and that’s what it can do. And you cannot get better at it. I think the Samchillian is really an instrument with a learning curve that’s very long, and just like other acoustic instruments, violin, piano, there’s a wide range of technique. And this guy was really a virtuoso with this instrument. He was able to play chords, all kinds of arpeggiators. What I liked about it is it’s an instrument more than a controller. There’s always more to learn about how to
