Stanley...woh...those names you mentioend are super terror Musicians. There are many Japanese girls who will put our Malaysian Sax players to shame.
lol. those are saxophonists i usually listen to, well nobody wants to spend time listening to bad music ain't it?
although i have to disagree with your 2nd sentence tho haha, there are many great japanese girls who can play the horn, but we still do have saxophone greats in malaysia as well, it just a little harder to discover them. there are also some great bossa nova and jazz saxophonists very near to us, from singapore! met quite a couple of them randomly...

Yeah sax is very hard to play, I tried it before when I was in a band but I was really a trombone/baritone player back then so am not really that interested. But it was fun though playing Alto Sax
(for Soprano sax , which Kenny G uses I think should be easier
, not sure
Is there any band here that has a sax, trumpet and trombone player alongwith the lead, rhythm, bass players and drummer?
sax is an easy instrument to learn, but its definitely a hard one to master, not to mention its not easy producing a soothing yet powerful sound from it.
the soprano saxophone is actually a little harder to play in comparison to the tenor or alto, as it requires more precise control from your air speed and embouchure. um, so i would have to say nope, the soprano sax which kenny g plays isn't easier to play than the others. it took him years of practicing and playing to get to where he is today, and still many saxophone players don't really admire his works lol.
