 Re: Should I play alto clarinet?

derf,
The tenor sax is so popular because it has sax appeal. The bari sax is a strange piece of plumbing, heavy, and you never attract women with that hung of metal around your neck. The alto is ever so proper, and looks it. The tenor...ah the tenor is just the right size and shape with that great sexy sound to make you the star of the sax section. All the best solos in a big band are found in the 1st tenor book. Now compare a beautiful looking tenor sax with a dorky looking ultrageektron alto clarinet. I mean, they do not even make a gig bag for the alto clarinet, so obviously there are no gigs for it and it does not rate the coolness factor. Image is so important in the music biz.
