Hi, I'm Eduardo Silva Alexandrópulos, I'm blowing this instrument for a time.

I started with an alto saxophone, but I has it only a short time; I needed to perfom a little job of making wooden pictures portraits, I got the help of a very good friend Alvaro Lagos in this. With this little help plus some spared money I reached finally my first sax (a Weril).

My goal was to have a sopran, so after a little time I sold it [of course a little higer than I was bought it (LOL)] and I order a soprano. I become my bran-new soprano [Hermes], it was my mate for some years. Then I started to take classes with a great sax player and composer: Cristián Crisosto [in that time he was part of the group called Fulano, a Chilean jazz-fusión group, today he is part of another team called Media Banda (look at the link page)]. After another time I perceived that the brand-new soprano was not so good, so decided to sell the nobel instrument and order something more professional, then I receive my Conn from 1923 app., he was my mate for many years, but recently I changed it for a Selmer. In the meanwhile I wanted to take a deep breath in jazz music so I started to take lessons with the spectacular sax player Marcos Aldana.

My current setup is :

Soprano: Selmer Serie III, dukoff D10 with a Rovner ligature and reeds Vandoren Java 3

Tenor: Hohner President, unknown mouthpiece and reeds Java 3 or Gonzales
