Dear sexy saxes..

as you all know, we have AYG performance on monday.
11am meet at new spect's stand with instrument, stand, scores.

SEC 2s, the 3s will only be released at 11am so if possible, help us bring our scores and stands.

i will call up FONGTHING (my wifey) and QIAOJING on sunday evening.
(they must be back then) apparently they would be clueless about the performance.

Charissa, u missed the last week of holiday prac, so in case u dont know, we're playing SOUSA and SPARTANS, full song with repeats.

Chloeeeee, you havent tried sousa yet...

yuan yuan must play LOUD LOUD kayyyy.. the other 2nds are unfamiliar with the pieces/ sight-reading..

i'm quite worried here now.. but well.. SAXES WE WILL DO IT WITH OUR SEXY SPIRIT!!!

if you have any urgent parts that u need help or anything.
can find me in 3 Faith on monday morning, or call me up anytime.
(hmm but not like someone msg me at 3am ah! :D actually msg can't wake me up lar.hee.)

So, saxes, we will do our VERY VERY BEST and watch the conductor, and play the song LOUD, and in TEMPO.
tempo is the most important thing okay.

with much loves and concern,
ZHANG DI

SAXO!

Hey saxes.

We must improve to produce decent sounds and contribute to the band!

So.. i took some time to dig out the basic sax fingering chart and warm-up exercise i had.

For the SAX FINGERING CHART : as there may be more than one fingering for each note, play the FIRST ONE from left.

P.S. sorry for the super ugly notes and treble clef. ;]

i had to use pen to darken it before scanning and the effect's terrible.

Please download and print them as your guide for practices. :D

Loves,

ZHANG DI
