Is sharing a saxophone sanitary?Hello, We have recently moved to a new school district. Currently we have a 10th grade bari sax player and 6th grade tenor sax player. In the past, we have always rented school instruments for our kids. At the new high school, they do not have enough horns to go around. There are 5 bari sax players and only 2 horns. The band teacher is giving them a choice of sharing a horn (having their own mouthpiece, reeds, and neck strap) or renting a horn from the local music store. Money is the issue here. I costs $35 per year to rent from the school. If I rent from the music store it is $650 for 10 months all paid up front and then $65 per month after that. Granted, the music store rental fees go toward owning the horn, minus a $10 service fee every month. What are anyone's thoughts? TIA |
