HiE: The sax is a recent arrival, it’s keywork was pattered after the modern flute, though it is a heavier touch and can be spread out further in the as in the baritone. It also involve a reed and reed care, where the flute is just an issue of embechure (mouth position and set.) The trumpet gets all it range from three valves and like other brass horns, lots of embechure.
Guitar and a bit of keyboard. I just started picking up drums, too. Amazing stuff! Also I try chazzanus when nobody’s around.
music lover 29, it’s true that keyboard helps you with guitar. That’s how I started out, with keyboard, and then when I started guitar, I sort of had a feel for the whole thing. It’s just a drop more painful to play guitar, especially when you start.
That’s true about having to start over. But when you have been playing for a while, I believe it takes quicker to get back into it. It works for me.
Also, you learn how to play so it doesn’t hurt as much. At the beginning, you need to press real hard. But when you have been playing for a while, you learn just how hard you need to press.
