      I remember hearing my first live jazz band concert at a college. This was after going to lots of rock concerts. The jazz band blew me out of my seat, I was hooked. I had the pleasure of going to the Monterey Jezz Festival and hearing lots of the greatest, but the premiere was attending a Count Basie and his orchestra concert in San Luis Obispo. Wow!!!

      @@paulpearson99 The fingerings may be similar, but the embouchure is entirely different. Clarinet and saxophone are probably the closest, but even they are fairly different. Fingerings are similar for the lower clarinet register, but because a clarinet overblows a 12th the upper register is different.
