Yesterday I picked up my saxophone for the first time in months. I had so little stamina that I got tired after only a few minutes. Then, after talking with a friend about Selmer saxophones (mine is a Super Action 80 Series II), I went online only to find that Conn and Selmer had merged into one company. That’s as weird a combination as Daimler-Chrysler, which, I guess, is not that weird.
