Saxophone player

“Music is your own experience, your own thoughts, your wisdom. If you don’t live it, it won’t come out of your horn. They teach you there’s a boundary line to music. But, man, there’s no boundary line to art.

Don’t play the saxophone. Let it play you.”

~Charlie Parker~

    Great capture – and comes out well in the black and white – especially the instrument! My daughter played the sax during high school – wished she had persevered.
