Great Interview! I really appreciate Fred's comments and observations. The break during COVID also motivated me to get back into my Sax studies after a multi-decade break. And Nigel's Sax School is a great resource for many of us adult students.
"We are products of our limitations!" What a fantastic comment. That, for some reason makes me feel GOOD! 🤣🤣 I'm loving this interview, I really am, thank you!
Ha! Ha! This is so cool :) Fred reminds me of the Sax player that the actor Robert De Niro played on the movie 'New York, New York', same personality and all--never fitting it with the orchestra, a saxophone misfit to say the least :)
That was a brilliant Podcast, one of the best yet. I love Fred's honesty and infectious enthusiasm. How about and in-depth on Nigel, Chris and Dean next?
Hi, I’ve noticed you posted some videos about saxophones. I was wondering, do you have an email or anywhere that I would be able to send you a video of the saxophone I bought? When I press c one of the bottom notes shakes and Id just like to check if that’s meant to happen, I’m fairly certain it’s not, or if I need to return it? Would be very helpful, thanks :)
@@McGillMusicSaxSchool It may be, but this is a video in 2024... Does it need to be in the thumbnail?.. Who would recognize that band from its logo vs who would just find it sexist?.. 😬🤷♂ Let's just do better
@@flrn84791 It's really great that people have different ideas and points of view and can express them freely. It colours and enriches life. I was never really into the Average White Band's music (sorry Fred) but I instantly recognise that logo as being the AWB. It is what it is. A bit like four guys on a zebra crossing, we all know the band by association with the image. As for being sexist or offensive (I assume that is the inference),... well nobody or nothing can 'give' offence. Offence can only be taken and that is a choice.
