I like your sound; it`s very clear and your articulation is very jazzy. Not any major issues with your timing either. Your sound and timing are the two key aspects of your playing that shows a lot of promise in the future. Keep up the work.

The only thing I hear that might lead to bad habits is the squeezed last note. I have a colleague who thinks he has a high range. However, when he plays up there, he pushes down on the lead pipe with his finger in order to push out the high notes (at which point I cringe). I`m not saying that you`re doing this, but the last note sounded like it was played a different way. The high register should generally be played the same way as the low register so that it is accessible without extra physical movement. In other words, it`ll be more efficient.

- to all those with negative comments: those who haven`t cacked a note shall cast the first stone.
