Hey all,

I've heard about this performance/improvement opportunity hosted by James Houlik, the Wildacres Saxophone Retreat. Has anybody here gone on this retreat? Would you recommend it for a sophomore/rising junior in high school? Why or why not? It sounds like a lot of fun, but I'm not sure if I'm the appropriate age to attend.

If you have attended, what did you like about it? Any great stories?

Thanks!
Payton

I'm not a classical player, student of the horn, or any of that. I have however gotten to meet Mr. Houlik a number of times at the annual Navy Band Saxophone symposium over the years. He is a very approachable, humble man, eager to discuss his craft and share his knowledge. He also has the best damned tenor saxophone tone I've ever heard, and I'm a jazz/pop player.
