The music season is starting again: Have your saxophone checked for optimal performance

Summer is over, rehearsals are starting up again, and concert schedules are slowly but surely filling up. The new music season is just around the corner! But are you really ready? Not only you, but your saxophone deserves the right preparation to perform at its best.

Why a check-up is important

Intense playing—or even a period of rest—can cause minor discomfort in your saxophone. Think of:

• Leaks in the pads causing the tone to no longer respond properly.
• Loose screws or mechanisms that make playing unnecessarily difficult.
• Dried cork or felt that makes squeaks or crackles.
• Build-up of moisture and dirt that affects the sound.

The result? Your sound is less clear and your technique feels more awkward. This can be frustrating, especially when you're eager to rehearse or perform again.

Avoid surprises

Preventative maintenance ensures you can play worry-free. A saxophone in top technical condition gives you the freedom to focus on what's truly important: making music.

Moreover, you extend the lifespan of your instrument by having it maintained regularly. Minor defects can often be repaired quickly, but delaying them can lead to larger and more expensive repairs.
