i played saxophone from 6th grade (~10 years old) up until my junior year of college, so about 12 years playing? i was pretty damn good, too. jazz was my passion; big bands and combos. in high school our jazz band won quite a few competitions for a few years in a row (yes it's a thing). in college, even when i changed my major from music to art, i was still asked to play in my uni's jazz band.
being a music major - especially playing jazz - means you dabble in other instruments: piano, guitar, flute and clarinet; i was never that great at these tho lol.
