0-10 years of playing the saxophone
February marks 10 years of playing the saxophone for me, so here is footage of me playing from day 10 all the way to year 10! My dad has always liked to film my siblings and I (which I always hated when I was younger but am now grateful for lol). But luckily this means I have tons of videos of me playing throughout the years. So to celebrate 10 years of playing the saxophone I put some of them in chronological order so you guys can see the progression so far! Timestamps: 0:00 Intro 0:18 10 days (and recreating this video) 0:56 1 year, 8 months 1:48 2 years (In A Sentimental Mood) 2:19 2 years, 5 months (CMU big band) 4:00 3 years (basically) 5:44 3 years, 3 months (steel drum concert #1) 7:03 3 years, 3 months (art gallery gig #1) 7:43 3 years, 5 months (Berklee 5 week/important musical moment) 10:26 4 years, 2 months (art gallery gig #2/playing flute??) 11:22 4 years, 3 months (my senior recital/transcribing by ear) 12:31 4 years, 3 months (steel drum gig #2 1 year later!) 13:06 5 years (On the Sunny Side Of the Street) 13:30 5 years, 2 months (2 jam sessions in 1 day) 16:12 The importance of the George Heid III jam session 16:45 5 years, 6 months 17:16 5 years, 11 months (Triste) 17:56 6 years, 11 months 18:14 8 years, 3 months (my first big band gig) 18:51 9 years (Sam Greenfield transcription) 19:23 10 years (well, 9 years and 10.5 months) 20:26 Music is a journey/outro I didn't start saxophone until I was 14 so I've always felt a few years behind everyone else. I've always wondered what the musicians I look up to sounded like when they were just learning their instrument, so I think it's important for me to put these on the internet. I also think it's good to show that part of the process of learning an instrument is sounding bad for a long time. And then still sounding bad when you start to sound good lol. Anyways, I hope this video is both entertaining and reassuring to you, wherever you may be on this journey. Here's to at least 10 more years!😂 #saxophone #musician #musicians 📱Socials: Instagram: @foolishfrankie TikTok: @foolishfrankie My class on how to improve your sound (previously on Skillshare): / foolishfrankie Join my Discord server! / discord Business Inquires: [email protected]
