Challenge 3 - LEARN A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT

This challenge is started but by no means finished.  I am now an L-plate saxophonist, who has already learnt how to put the saxophone together, play B A G and C, tongue (not as exciting as it sounds) and most importantly look cool (the photos below might suggest otherwise).  I also held a long note today for 27 seconds which my teacher assures me is truly fabulous - a testament to my big lungs!! My repertoire so far consists of Three Blind Mice and Hot Cross Buns, but I like to think that I bring my own bluesy interpretation to them.  Gerry Rafferty should be relieved that he departed this earth, just as I picked up the sax for the first time with ambitions of massacring Baker Street before the year is out. RIP

Follow my progress but earplugs are advisory.

  1. Good physicality with the instrument, you look like you sound amazing which is the main thing, right? Right?
