      Johnny,

      I've been working really hard trying to play Amazing Grace but I seem to get stuck at the seventh note. I have study the fingering chart, but I don't hear the correct tone. Help!

        Sandy, are you reading a chart for it or just figuring it out by ear? If so, what key are you playing in? At least tell me your first 6 notes.

          Johnny,

          I am using printed sheet music found online. The first six notes are: D, G, B, G, B, A.

          Thanks,
          Sandy

            I'm not sure which fingering chart you're using, but have you checked out Sax Tutor? The program is free. You can pay if you want and open up a few more scales (Pent. Major/Minor & blues), but Johnny has the Pent. Major/Minor scales here on the site.

            SaxTutor is a small PC program which teaches scales, transposition, fingerings and altissimo notes for soprano, alto, tenor and baritone saxophones. It’s also pretty good at teaching scales on a keyboard but lets face it, once you have Sax you never look back…
