The Art Of Saxophone Display

In his studio, a friend of mine has this amazing wooden sculpture of a male torso that weighs nearly 100 pounds. The sculpture sometimes gets adorned in different ways. I particularly liked the way it was done most recently…

  1. I’m not surprised that they have music tests to get into the bands. These bands sound extremely good, so obviously the playing level is fairly high.

    For about 5 years, I played in a few bands that marched, but it’s not really a big deal here in Canada… Not like it is in the States. We did the competition thing, etc. I don’t remember much about it anymore, other than I was really glad I only played tenor, and not the bari or something like the sousaphone! 😮

    There’s 2 bass saxophones in there, I will be the third added on once I get my music test. Yes we have music tests for that. There are actually 6 upright bass fiddles, numerous saxophones, 3 violins, 5 accordions, and only 2 drummers.

    1. I only noticed 1 bass sax with the band. What’s up with that? But I did notice 4 upright basses. I don’t know which I would rather march with less. :scratch:

      I think it’s a toss-up. Both would be awful but for different reasons. The sax because of its weight. The string bass because it’s awkward.
