      Thank you for your comments & listening. I LOVE my sax! Had it for 4 weeks now and can’t play it enough!

          Thank you for the feedback. Yes I was tapping my foot for timing. I will work on putting more air to the higher notes (I didn’t know how to fix so your feedback was helpful). Playing is now feeling natural to me vs. 3 months ago it was an effort as I was trying to remember how to do everything at once and it was work (including getting my sax working again). LOL If only I could get the tone down now. I am working on harder pieces now vs. 3 months ago and I am encouraged with progress. I am putting in the practice time 3 to 5 hours a day and am enjoying. I want to be good in a bad way…LOL

          Just FYI my mother who is 75 is getting very forgetful and lives 10 hours away. But everyday she asks if I have a song to share with her. I only share a song once a week with mom and dad and we play “What is this tune?”. They love the game. When I played 40 years ago mom would always come in when I practiced and I would play some song she wanted. Dad would always tell me to do a toe tapper as everyone like that. It was a bonding family thing back then that has become the same today. Mom tells me everyday how happy she is that I am playing again. It is nice to do something that I enjoy and it brings joy to my mom and dad at their ago is a wonderful thing.

          Thanks for your help!

              I am laughing because I was noticing that too watching the video.  It is not true it is the camera.  I am playing the top keys with my left hand and the bottom with my right hand.
