Summer Sax

What's everyone doing over the summer for sax, marching band, regular band camp, just practicing a lot? Thought i'd ask to see what others do.

    im doing marching band and the camp for it, although im not playing sax there. i like to do lots of indepent studies using books and sonatas. if your really bored, try picking up a new insturment like clarinet. it really fills the time.

      Here in Australia it isn't summer yet its the opposite. BUT What I do in the summer holidays (when we have them) I love to work on really really hard things, like solos with Piano accompaniment and mainly practice on tone and technique a lot. Going to band camps are also really great things to do, as well as start up a jazz group or small ensamble with a bunch of your mates, that passes the time!!! Buescher!!!

        Well I am going to a jazz camp at Eastern Illinois. Then later in the summer I am going to do marching band. That is about it for me this summer.
