@mpace2011 wow, thanks! That means a lot coming from an experienced musician. I kind of had to give up playing seriously because USAFA doesn't have a lot of opportunities for saxophone, but I still love playing.
@isleman44 You are correct about the ligature, and it is a Vandoren 3 reed, with some kind of Selmer mouthpiece but I am actually separated from my saxophone (sad face) for about a month and I cannot remember which model it is so I will have to get back to you on that.
@USAFA10s Thanks, your the second person who's got a selmer, I have been asking around, mine is arriving in the post soon, good luck and keep your head down..(USAF)

How do you get such a colorful sound? I'm a sax player and always looking for ways to improve.

Do you have the sheet music for this?

I like the color in your sound. It's very classical; you almost make your sax sound like a flute.

@kewlfroy2 Thanks! I was completely self taught for my first 3 years of playing but had a director who was a flute player. Do you play?
USAFA10s 6 months ago
@USAFA10s, Yes I do. I play most woodwinds, but over the last few years I have been focusing on the Alto Sax mostly.
