DON’T Take Sax Lessons In New Orleans Until You Get This PDF Guide!
If you’re looking for a sax teacher in New Orleans for remote or socially distanced lessons, there are tons of great choices. Some focus on New Orleans Brass Band playing, others on pop, jazz, or even classical.
But if you’ve never picked up the saxophone (or it’s been a long time since you’ve even touched yours)…
You Might Just Be Wasting Your Teacher’s Time, And Your Own To Boot!
-You’ll pay $50 to $75+ per hour to learn a specialized skill that your sax teacher can’t even help you with if you don’t spend a month or two on learning the fundamentals. At the LOW end it’ll cost you $200 for just the first month!
-The style (or genre) they teach might require you to pay hundreds more for the appropriate reeds and mouthpieces. While it never hurts to have good equipment, what if you change your mind and decide to focus on another style…or another instrument altogether?
