Jr. plays the Sax
Saturday, January 21, 2012 at 9:07PM Jr. has been learning the Alto Sax this year. They had their first performance for parents.
It is an expensive but beautiful instrument. Thankfully they allow us to rent on a monthly fee and if we rent for enough months we get to buy it! (Reminds you of Bama Vijayam, doesn't it?)
Took this HDR picture of the Alto Sax a few months ago..
Here is a video of her practicing at home after her first two classes..
Considering that we don't get to see her practice at home often (San's complaint that the thing is too loud!) and are limited to once a week, she did very well!
The plan is to encourage her better going forward...

amazing ! The sax has great meaning for me. For its an instrument that in my mind is something that I wont be able to play at all.
Keep it going with her !!
:)
pretty cool!
S1 is learning the violin with his school orchestra. He's also learning the piano with a private tutor. There's simply no comparison.
If she likes it, you may have to get a private teacher and put up with a lot more practice :)
Did your daughter watch DUET movie before taking up sax ;-)
