At the moment I have been in my school plays every year and that is always fun. I got a good grade in my Drama so i'm hoping that will help me get into a good drama school when I'm older.

I am also in an acting class thing and last year I performed in an original play that we wrote together. I performed on my local stage in front of two quite big audiences. It was fun ^_^

Here's my bright idea.... i'll just disappear

There is so much I've accomplished, and I don't know where to start. Lemme see.

The biggest contest I've done is From the Top.
I'm going to Interlochen for the summer. Again.  :D
Maybe the summer after next, I might go to Europe to go on tour with a national band. Yes, national.
I've had several recitals.
I've been offered to sign with this record label, but my parent's didn't let me. I have to finish school, and Juilliard first. If I did sign, I would have to take 6-weeks off of school, and go on tour. Playing at concert halls, and travel. :D

Small things I've done.
Made All-Region Band every year since I was allowed (7th grade)
Made All-District.
Made Area, but not state.
At Area, I relaxed too much, and my tongue settled while playing a fast piece, so my fingers were ahead of my tongue. But, I was the only Freshman at Area, and I was just one chair away from state.

Contests I'm doing.

I'm doing a contest to play with the Brazos Symphony Orchestra.
Contest to play with the United States Air Force.
And The International clarinet Association, this time it is going to be held in British Columbia, Canada.

So, yeah, that's all the jusnk I could think of right now, that I've done, am doing, and plan on doing.  :D

YOU ALL STARE BUT YOULL NEVER SEE THERES SOMETHING INSIDE ME FU*KERS

I have played alto saxophone since 6th grade and started playing tenor sax in 10th grade...
I participate in 4 bands and play saxophone in my schools musicals..
I am trying to learn how to improv solo so if you guys have any tips that may help me please tell me...

Yeah I play sax all over my area and there is a lot of resources available.  Find a solo book and work your way through it.  Always when you practice spend about 10-30 minutes on technical skills like improving vibrato, altissimo, scales ..etc.  Work also a whole lot on vertical jumps in the music like octaves and stuff.  There are so many resources to help you improve it is not even funny all you must do is look.  I have to get back to practicing again I have neglected lately.
