how old are you? I play alto tenor soprano sax, flute and clarinet and i can play this on most of my instruments. The key is to play it slow at first and then gradually spped up. (im 14 years old) :b
yeah, but you are 12. You have no doubt learned a slow, watered-down version of this song. No 12 year-old has the musical fortitude to play this song.
2.5 on a ZZ reed? That is soft. Plus they're softer than most other reeds. But whatever works for you is what you should use. I remember I used to play on alto with a 3 1/2, but after playin on tenor for a while all I could use on alto was a 3...but also sounded much better.
So whatever sounds best is what you should use (and everyone in this group sounded really good, so there ya go)
There are some low B's in this arrangement I have, so I would have done octave jumps with a soprano sax too. This arrangement was written specifically for the alto sax's range and uses a low B all the way to a high F. Thanks for watching!
I can only imagine the amount of cursing that went on during rehearsal

2.5 are soft pieces of shit. U might as well pick up some congealed dog shit and use that. Use 3 or 3.5
