Today I had the pleasure of meeting the great Ernie Watts, who came by the Buffet Showroom in NYC to try out some of the different models of Keilwerth Saxophones. He personally has been playing a Keilwerth SX90R Tenor for many years now. I also got to meet and talk with some other great players. All in all, a very nice day.

We both agree that it's a great sounding horn

The weather in NYC today was a mix of snow rain and sleet, so being inside with these great people was a much better way to spend the day.
