Re: Thinking of changing to Sax

I'm retired also, and now have much more time to practice the clarinet. But, as far as the sax (I have an alto, a Spenser which is an off-brand, but with a Yani mouthpiece) and it plays like a dream. It is light, and easy for me to play. I play the sax once a month in a big band, and they were desperate when they hired me! I would say my sax playing is at the intermediate level, but it is very much fun. I may be improving as the others have stopped giving me the evil eye. And of course sax is not so tiring as playing the clarinet. I have a #2.5 reed on the clarinet and a Vandoren B45 m.p. which is pretty open. Good luck to you. Enjoyed reading about this.
