      Hey vinzeno1, sounds like you’re having fun already for sure; that’s great to hear because that’s what it’s all about. Make sure you really take your time going through How to Play the Saxophone ebook–and when I say really take your time; REALLY take your time. Quality practices are way more important than just trying to get through it as fast as you can; and you’ll be way better off in the long run. It also helps to ensure that you don’t develop bad habits, which will be hard to break later on. If you look around pg. 70 of that book, you’ll find the major scales; which is what I’m learning now. It’s taken me about 5 months to get there–everyone is different–I’ve learned 7 of them and working on the 8th major scale that Johnny shows in the book. So basically I’m using the rest of this year to go from those major scales to the end/finish the book. Even though that’s only a little bit over 20 pages to go, those pages contain A WEALTH of important information. The biggest mistake I could make would be to blast through it. See my point? Keep us posted on your progress!
