A community portal about Saxophone with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: The saxophone is a conical- bored instrument of the woodwind family, usually made of brass and played with a single-reed mouthpiece like the clarinet. It was invented by Adolphe Sax around 1840. The saxophone is most commonly associated with popular music, big band music, and jazz, but it was originally intended as both an orchestral and military band instrument. Saxophone players are called saxophonists.

The finished painting gives the viewer a feel of both music and movement... Read Full Story
So, it’s Sunday again (at least I started this on Sunday…), which means church, which means I had to play this morning. Nothing out of the ordinary for me. My parish happens to observe a summer schedule for our services, which means instead of 8:00 AM and 10:30 AM, the services are 8 and 9:30 AM. During the summer, the schedule is always rushed, especially in terms of getting set up and ready for the 9:30 service. Got there this morning, warmed up and ran through the offertory with my...
