Student page
This is the page where I post general advice and learning points for students and prospective students alike. These snippets of information are usually time limited in the interests of space.
I get asked a lot about the best place to buy saxophones, mouthpieces, ligatures etc. For me there really is only one place and that is Sax.co.uk, based in Crowborough, East Sussex. they have a pretty comprehensive website (link provided on the next page). However, if you get the chance you must visit their store in Crowborough or their London shop, They are the largest and best stocked shop dedicated to saxophones in the UK.
After a recent visit to sax .co.uk in Crowborough I spent time selecting 4 excellent step up alto mouthpieces which I now have available for students to try:
Jody Jazz HR 6M
Aizen Jazz Master 6
Aizen GR 6
Raphael Navarro Maestra 6
These are all excellent mouthpieces, free blowing and capable of broadening tonal range. Combined with Rovner Ligatures and Jazz Select Reeds these offer a great combination.
