Overview of Saxophone Lessons:

Saxophone lessons will teach the basic techniques of reading, theory, and sound production. Using a classical repertoire will give the students the fundamentals they need to play the style of their choice later on in their music education. For more advanced sax students, sax lessons will teach improvisation as it can be applied to jazz, blues, and modern popular music. Saxophone lessons will help the student find their own individual voice and to make that voice fit in any style they wish to pursue.

Age to Begin Lessons:

Young children can begin sax lessons as soon as seven or eight years old. The larger saxophones can be rather large instruments, so take this into consideration when choosing an instrument for a child. The saxophone is also a great instrument for adults wishing to learn another instrument or pick one up for the first time.

Purchase Requirements:

Many student and intermediate models can be purchased or rented at a reasonable price. There are four main kinds of saxophone: the soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone. In addition to an instrument, the correct stiffness of reeds is also a consideration to be discussed with your Saxophone teacher. Generally, new students on the sax should choose reeds that are softer rather than harder.
