What is my first step to becoming a saxophone player?

[john]

give us some information like where are you at with your playing etc.
which make or model is it?

[omo oba]

Okay, i am absolutely a beginner, but i can do the fingering correctly and play some simple song on it. That is what I’m not convenient with, i want to be able to play every piece of music note i lay my hands on perfectly.

I have a fender alto sax with serial number 0920207. my elder brother bought it for me

[john]

very good. you must learn all the notes from low Bb to high F.
but not only learn the notes, become smooth and confident with each passing note. practise the 2 1/2 octave (low Bb to hi F) playing semi tones for at least an hour each day…Bb, B, C, C#, D, D#, E etc all the way to high F, then come back down.
each time you stop or make a mistake, go up 2 or 3 notes and continue until it goes smooth

I have problem purchasing your instruction e-book, PayPal decline my payment, i also tried using Amazon, the payment was reversed later the day i made payment. How do I get this book?
Also i only know how to place the fingers from low C upward, can you help me out with the fingering direction?
