Senior saxophonists prepare for careers in music
The smooth sounds of saxophone notes are familiar to two seniors concentrating in the woodwind. Jon Moore, a performance major, and Nathan Thomas, a music education major, have been coaxing jazzy tunes out of their horns since before they enrolled at Elon University. Their first encounter was four years ago in Elon's marching band, the Fire of the Carolinas, when Moore played tuba and Thomas played euphonium. "We met each other outside of what we usually play, in the low brass section of marching band," Thomas said.
