    Simon and Heidi don’t understand how hard it is to play the soprano sax in tune, which he actually does. To play from the bottom to the top of the register of this instrument in tune and keeping a homogeneous sound is a beast of a task which he has mastered. So sad that these judges don’t understand this. Maybe they’ll read my comment and learn.

    Fun fact: I first met B. at IU Bloomington during his freshman year. He told me his goal was to perform on the big stage with some of the biggest stars. I told him that college wasn’t the place for him because it would only be holding him back. This was my advice to B. because school would only teach him a curriculum, which I knew that his talent overshadowed any basic college curriculum. I later found out that he left IU to purse his solo music career. As of today, B. has played sax for Kenny G, Babyface, Toni Braxton and some other heavy hitters in the music industry. I know a star when I see one! Continue to represent well for the 317! Congrats B.!!!
