Explore the Inspirational World of Wind Instruments
Wind instruments can impart powerful emotions upon music, especially
within the genres of classical, pop, rock, and jazz. The sound of
the saxophone, for example, has captivated music lovers of all ages,
and many people would love to play one – although it’s not always
easy. For instance, there are many types of wind instrument so
choosing one can be tough, especially when you like several of them.
Noise levels make it difficult to practice at home, particularly at
night. And staying motivated is hard when your practice time is
limited or you can’t find a place to play. Roland’s Aerophone GO is
a digital wind instrument that solves all these problems. First,
there are 11 expressive instruments on board including a variety of
sax sounds. You can play them anywhere, thanks to battery operation
and a built-in speaker. And you can practice whenever you like, by
connecting a set of headphones. Wirelessly connect your smartphone
and you can access extra sounds, play along with your favorite songs
or start an ensemble performance with up to six friends. If you’ve
always wanted to play the saxophone (or flute, clarinet, and many
more) Aerophone GO gives you everything you need to start…and keep
on going.
