I stop trying and sit there in silence
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
Mr. Anderson sighs deeply, putting down his coffee mug.
Why are you giving up so easily? You're not even trying, kid.

I sigh softly I’m sorry… I’ll try harder…
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
sighs You better. You're not the first student to struggle with this, but you have potential. I can tell.
leans against the desk, arms crossed But you gotta put more effort in. Practice regularly, and try to listen to the notes you're playing. Don't let frustration get to you.

I just can't get this one note...it's so frustrating! saxophone squeaks loudly
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
groans in frustration That's exactly what I'm talking about! You need to relax and play with your fingers, not try to saw the reed in half like it's a piece of wood!
walks over and grabs the saxophone away
Here, let me show you again.

Giggles softly, ignoring his comment.
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
he raises an eyebrow at your giggling
Ignore my comment, eh? Well, let me remind you that you're here to learn to play the saxophone, not giggle your way through music class.

I can’t do it! It sounds horrible… I’m not cut out for music. I sit my sax down on its stand, walking away from it, feeling defeated
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
Mr. Anderson sighs and puts down his own saxophone.
Don't be too hard on yourself, kid. It takes time to learn. And you're not cut out for music? That's a bold statement. You haven't even been playing for a week yet.

I’m a male with long white hair and light blue eyes with an eyepatch over my right eye, I’m slightly autistic and I have ADHD
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
Mr. Anderson glances up at you, taking in your appearance. He notices your white hair, light blue eyes, and eyepatch. He also notices your slight disability.
Ah, you're having some trouble keeping up, huh?
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
frowns It’s hard…
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
he sighs
I understand it's difficult, but you're making it harder than it needs to be. You need to focus and use the proper fingerings.
he walks over and adjusts your fingers on the saxophone
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
I give up and just hum a beautiful tune on my own
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
raises an eyebrow Hmph. You're humming a tune. Hmm...
walks over to you and stands behind you, peering over your shoulder to see if you're holding the saxophone correctly
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
I was struggling to make sound come out of the instrument
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
Mr. Anderson walks over and looks at your fingers on the saxophone
Are you sure you're following the chart correctly? Your fingers aren't on the correct keys...
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
I don't look up at him. I continue struggling.
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
He walks over to you, his leather shoes making soft tapping sounds on the tile floor.
"Let me see what you're doing." He says, leaning down to peer at your fingers on the saxophone.
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
I take deep breaths and try again slowly, successfully playing a beautiful song on the saxophone.
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
eyes widen slightly Well... I'll be damned. That's actually pretty good.
he says in a surprised tone, trying not to sound impressed but failing miserably
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
laughs softly No, just having trouble finding the right fingerings. This thing's got more keys than a piano.
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
chuckles softly
Yes, it does seem like a daunting instrument, doesn't it? But you're doing great so far. You just need to practice more. And don't forget, the key to playing the saxophone is to keep your embouchure correct.
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
I seem embarrassed by my failure. "It just doesn't sound right when I do it like this."
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
he lets out a sigh
Yes, well, the way you're playing is not correct, obviously. That's why I have the chart, to help you learn proper technique. Now, would you mind playing it again so I can see where you're going wrong?
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
I take it out my mouth blowing into it, causing a sound. Look! It makes noise.
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
rolling my eyes Yes, I'm well aware that it makes noise when you blow into it. What I meant was trying to play it properly with your fingers, not just blowing into it like a kazoo.
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
I'm sorry, just having trouble getting the hang of it Struggling to press down all the correct keys
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
sighing heavily It's alright, it takes time. But I have to warn you, you're not going to get very far if you can't even press the keys properly.
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
I sigh heavily. I hate this.. I start to put away my things. I'm sorry. I walk away towards the door.
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
Mr. Anderson calls out before you reach the door.
Hold it. You're not going anywhere until we talk about your lack of effort in class.
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
I eventually get it right, but I feel like I'm going to be sick afterwards.
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
Mr. Anderson looks over, seeing that you finally got it right. He notes your pale expression.
Are you feeling alright? You look a little green around the gills.

After school I'm in my room working on a new song for the band
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
Later in the evening, there's a knock at your door
Mr. Anderson: he pokes his head in Mind if I come in? I heard you're working on a song for the band.
WhisperingVoyage
10/25/2024
I take a deep breath and continue trying.
Mr. Anderson
10/25/2024
watches intently, arms crossed, expression stern
That's it... focus. Try using your embouchure correctly. And don't forget to blow air through the mouthpiece. You're not going to get any better by just staring at the instrument.
