That depends on your definition of "reasonable". I believe when it comes to musical instruments you get what you pay for. If you want to pay 2 grand for an alto, you are going to get a decent intermediate model sax. This does not mean...

How different is playing a soprano saxophone with playing an alto saxophone?
_MG_3685

I really love soprano sax and planning to buy one soon. However, I can't find a music school that teaches soprano sax. They teaches the alto one. If I can play an alto sax, does it mean I can easily play a soprano one too? How different is playing...


The major difference between the soprano saxophone and the alto saxophone is that both are transposing instruments in different pitch, i.e. soprano sax is in Bb and alto saxophone is in Eb. This means that tuning will get in the way a little at...

How can I stop my tenor saxophone from buzzing?
_MG_3696

On certain notes (middle C#, low C and low Bb for example) my tenor saxophone seems to buzz, and I can't figure out why. It really is bothering me, as in my band, the trombone players and myself usually have to harmonize, and that is pretty difficult


Take it to a local music store and have the repair technician look at it. He/she can help you figure out the problem rather quickly. More than likely you have a leak somewhere.

One Nightstand, Six Affairs: Novels Of Illicit Love

, A love affair launches Lexie Sinclair's career. Innes Kent is an older, urban sophisticate who plucks young Lexie from sheltered 1950s suburbia and beds her in the big city. Confident, opinionated and sharp, Lexie takes to her new milieu — London's bustling art and literary scene. She can handle her men, even as she comes to loathe the one who fathered her son. But that isn't all there is to Lexie. Underneath her tough demeanor is a woman with a shrewd understanding of her complex emotional life. A seemingly separate story follows Elina, a Finnish emigre, and her boyfriend, Ted, through their son's first weeks. While the haze of birth obscures Elina's thinking, something much thornier interferes with Ted's psyche. The two story lines, each with its own compelling view of love, coalesce in a dramatic and surprising ending. (At the opening of the novel, O'Farrell writes that the trees are stirring in the wind: "It is almost as if the trees know, in their restlessness, in their head-tossing impatience, that something is about to happen.")
