I have recently bought online a very cheap alto sax from music123. It's an Allora student model, so I know it's not going to be quite as good as your Selmer Paris horns and do on, but perhaps one day...
The saxophone hasn't yet arrived, but when it does I will want to check.it over to ensure that all the bits that should be attached are in place, that the pads close and so on. I have never played a note on the saxophone and I don't know anyone who does play it. With that in mind, does anyone have any suggestions on how I might sensibly test it out...?
Thanks for any thoughts. You don't have to tell me that I should have bought a better horn...
