IMDB rating: 4.60 Plot: Eternal bachelor Lupo plays the comical presenter to the musical acts in his own Italian restaurant ‘Serenade Cafe’ in New York, but operatic singer Gina is not amused, she throws him out of her dressing room- the more she insults him, the crazier the old fool gets about her. To keep him off she insists her husband must be an opera singer, so he is easily duped by Ierra, who hits on with Gina himself and ships Lupo off to his Italian cahoot, musical teacher Marcello, for lessons- actually he is so bad that even the dog runs off, and after they bribe the local opera to give him a tiny part, the sound-tortured audience chases him for his life. He passes out but is found and taken in by a winegrowers family, which gives him confidence and a killer voice… |

Is it hard to switch from the B flat clarinet to the Tenor Saxophone?
I have played the clarinet in my school band for about 5 years now, since the 4th grade. I want to switch to the Tenor Sax next year when I’m a freshman. Is this a tough transition?
I would say it would be an easy switch. The clarinet is actually more difficult than the sax, so a lot of things will be easier for you than for someone who started out on the sax. Plus, Tenor Sax is in the same key as the B-flat Clarinet. A lot of the fingerings are exactly the same, so you don’t have too much to worry about.
Just start practicing over the summer. Get some private lessons, or join a summer band program.

It is very easy to switch. The clarinet is easy to play simple songs, but professional arrangements are difficult. The tenor sax or any sax is much easier. I start my students out on clarinet playing simple songs and a few scales , then switch to Alto, Tenor, Sopranino,Soprano, Baritone, Bass sax, whichever they prefer. They all say how much easier a sax is. Most of them continue to play clarinet and sax. It is much easier to get college scholarships if you play clarinet and several different sizes of sax. I am very fortunate and have all sizes! Best regards leebm29@yahoo.com
