My House Concert Story

My very first jazz house concert was when I was 6 years old. I went to a birthday with my mom that was at a jazz bar. The great argentina/brazilian saxophonist Hector Costita was playing with his trio. I was mind blow just as hear the sound of him playing the tenor saxophone. It was love at first sight! So since my early years I wanted to learn to play the saxophone. But at the time there was no sax teacher at my local music school so they convince me to star with the recorder! hahaha Only when I was 13 years old that my mom bought me my first alto and started studying!
