Piano Lessons

Both my daughters love piano after the first free lesson and want to practice all the time. My 5 year old had a blast and was engaged every minute. My 9 year old also loved it. Ms G. was wonderful at keeping them both engaged virtually and also ensuring they had fun at their own pace. We look forward to many more piano lessons.

Singing Lessons

I am so happy with my voice instructor, Julia! She is helping me to reach out of my comfort zone to fulfill a lifelong dream. Her style of teaching is so fun you forget you are learning. I can’t thank her and Kerry (Director of Client Engagement) enough for their patience and professionalism.

What's the best age to start saxophone lessons?

The ideal age for a child to begin saxophone lessons is between the ages of 7 and 9. It also depends on your child’s individual development and their interest in learning the saxophone. They should also be able to hold and move fingers on saxophone for a period of time.

 

At Lesson With You, we welcome students aged 7 and up, and for those under 10, we recommend that a parent be present during lessons.

Helpful article: What’s the Best Age to Learn Saxophone?

What type of saxophone should I buy?

For younger players, typically aged 10 and older, it’s great to start with an alto saxophone. Its smaller size and lighter weight make it more manageable for beginners, and it’s a versatile choice for various musical styles.

Teenagers in the 14-18 age range may consider switching to tenor or even soprano saxophones if they have some experience. These instruments offer different tonal qualities and work for intermediate players exploring various genres.

Adults who are new to the saxophone generally find the alto sax a great starting point. As they progress and develop their skills, they may choose to explore tenor, soprano, or even the baritone saxophone, depending on their musical interests and goals.

Try discussing with your saxophone teacher which brand and price range to consider when buying a saxophone.

How often should I practice saxophone?

The frequency and length of your saxophone practice can differ based on your schedule, age, skill level, and musical goals. Our instructors recommend setting aside a consistent daily practice time, ideally averaging around 20 minutes, excluding the time it takes to set up the saxophone. The important thing is to maintain a consistent practice routine, stay committed, and find enjoyment in the process of learning the saxophone over time.

What can I expect out of my first saxophone lesson?

First, you will learn the optimal way to set up the sound, position your saxophone, and arrange your screen.

Teachers may ask you several questions about your musical goals, your saxophone playing and practice habits, and any challenges you face when playing the saxophone. Based on your responses, they will suggest customized warm-up exercises and techniques to help you build your skills. Throughout the lesson, your instructor will help you with improving your posture, breathing, understanding of music theory, and expanding your saxophone repertoire.

Throughout your journey, you can expect to learn both the technical and artistic aspects of saxophone music, as well as how to develop a practice routine that suits your skill level and schedule.

I want to ear train and improvise only - is that okay for saxophone?

Prioritizing ear training and improvisation is a great option for saxophone players. However, we suggest that you first develop some proficiency in music reading. Learning the basics of reading music can help you make faster progress on the saxophone, especially when learning more challenging pieces. You can always transition to focusing on ear training once you’ve reached basic music theory and reading.

What are some ways to improve my saxophone tone and sound quality?

To make your saxophone sound better, pay attention to how you breathe and shape your mouth. Focus on controlling your breath to keep a steady airflow, which affects the sound. Work on your mouth and lip position (that’s your embouchure) to get good control and clear notes by using a variety of exercises with repetition. 

You can also experiment with different reeds to find  the one that suits your playing style and improves your sound. Reeds are sensitive, and even small variations can significantly affect your saxophone tone. Investing in good quality reeds is an option to consider.
