Subj: [kl] Low Sax Notes
Date: Wed, 30 Jun 1999 00:23:15 -0400

I was going to suggest playing the baritone sax for a while. When I was at
university, I wanted to play in the stage band. I had the same problems
with the alto's low register. I went down to the other end on bari for a
couple of months, and when I went back to alto, all the way down, no
problem. (Actually, the problem was that I found I enjoyed playing the
bari more than the alto. <g>)
