It took me a few months to get up to playing for 45 minute periods and after a year I was up to 1.5 hour periods. Though now I just practice for hour periods 2-3 times a week and play with a community group.
It's been 3-4 years now and I'm really playing far better than when I quit years ago. I'm doing Russian Christmas and Shostakovich's Festive Overture in band now and they're very accessible when really not too long ago I was having issues with something like Aladdin <g>.
Before you join a concert band hunt for some MMO CDs that you can play along with for the concert band experience at home, the Woodwind Quintet and Douvas series are good. When you play with a group it's a whole new world where you're not just concerned about how the reed plays... but that it's in tune with everyone else. That can be scary.
