Question:

Is it difficult to learn to play the saxaphone?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: It's a very easy instrument to learn how to play. Most of the notes go in order of how they are placed on the body, not like bassoon, yikes. The thing that makes the saxophone hard is the tone. Anyone can play the sax but not everyone can play it with a nice tone. I've been playing for nine years and I'm still learning how to create a better tone, even when my sax teacher says it's wonderful, it can still be better. If your serious about playing the saxophone you need to set up some lessons with a qualified teacher. That means a master of that instrument. Try a college, university, or look up some local players who teach. The lessons make sure that you don't have to relearn things later from teaching yourself. A teacher will help you with tone and technique. You can learn very bad habits from teaching yourself and it becomes frustrating when you want to succeed. I hope this helps.
