Thanks guys 🙂 I sure am surprised that I got picked and I will be surprised for some time; I’m kind of “numb” and I will be for a little while….I don’t understand how I could get picked over guys who have been playing so much longer than me?!? I’m a fan of some “select” jazz music on the Saxophone and those guys played it very well too. It was a little “intimidating” for me–not in the sense of trying to “compare” myself with others. But they’ve been playing for so much longer than me, I’ve only been playing for 2 years, so what do I know? It helped me to relax to just don’t worry about what I don’t know and just play what I do know–in any case the judges liked it. Especially when I played Altissimo notes, I played them as loud as I possibly could–and the louder I got the bigger the smile on 1 judges face 🙂 That put me at ease to say the least.
I’ve attempted to have a go at some Jazz music, and my wife says that, quote, “It’s just not ‘you’ and thinks that I should stick with Blues/Rock because she thinks it’s more “me” Maybe it clicked with the judges too?
