I'm with tolga.
1. I have no idea what being grade 5 on an instrument means.
2. I LOVE blues, rock and to a lesser extent jazz sax.
Let us hear something.

That's sweet bluesharper! Not sure what grade 5 is though... I studied jazz and classical saxophone at FSU so it'd be cool to hear something. What pieces are you working on?

I never got to grade 5 on trombone, but used a grade 5 piece to audition [and pass] for the county youth 2nd band about 30 years ago :^)
well done to you.
Theory next??

@ Oda
Not that much really. I thought when i started sax it would change my harp play. But to my suprise nope not at all.
@ Lumpy
Well the program i did (trinity guildhall) you do the theory at the same time as the practical.
