Nick Councilor

Some nice work from woodwind bloggers in January:

• Some good advice on Matt Stohrer’s Open Source Saxophone Project on inspecting a used saxophone.
• Bassoonist Barry Stees suggests using multiple senses to improve technique.
• Joan Martí-Frasquier shares a thorough altissimo fingering chart for baritone saxophone, including quarter tones.
• Some good stuff from the D’Addario Reserve Method Program blog, including one from clarinetist Nick Councilor on some basics of ensemble etiquette and one from clarinetist Bradley Grasl on being your own teacher.

Don’t see your favorite blog here? (Your own, perhaps?) Make sure I know about it.
