Fall Performance

Curricular Competencies Reflection

During the year, I have learned how to play the alto saxophone, and played through multiple performances. During the Fall Performance I had basic knowledge of how to play properly, not being able to connect the notes together. As of now, I am able to play most notes in most songs, making minimal mistakes. With help from my fellow saxophones, I was able to hear them play and evolve through that. Improvements can always be made, especially for a first-year saxophone player like me. For example, I cannot hit very low notes first try all the time, and my breath control can be improved also. I plan to continue going on with music but mainly with tenor sax or another form of brass instrument.
