Although there are multiple instruments, the saxophone is special. This wind instrument produces a soft and relaxing sound that’s hard to describe. That’s why it’s a big part of jazz and R&B music. For people who want to eliminate stress in their lives turn to sax music.
It’s great for parents
Due to the soothing sound of the saxophone, some parents use it to lull their babies to sleep. There’s just something unique about this particular instrument. Famous musicians like Charlie Parker, Clarence Clemons, and Miles Davis, among others, made this sax popular.
Grandpa’s magic
Joe Sims is a grandpa to his adorable grandson, Braylon. But he’s also a highly skilled saxophone player. From the time this baby was born, he’s played for him, helping him to relax and even fall asleep.
Showcasing his talent
Fortunately, for baby Braylon, as well as hundreds of thousands of people around the world, someone uploaded a video of Grandpa Joe playing for his grandbaby. Although it’s only been up for a few days, it’s already been viewed close to 350,000 times.
He’s that good
For people just learning to play the saxophone, it’s common to hear a lot of squeaks. But that’s not the sound this grandpa makes. From the second the video starts you hear the fluidity that goes hand in hand with this instrument.
In total awe
As Grandpa Joe plays, Braylon sits across from him. As you watch the video, you see that he doesn’t take his eyes off the man he loves and adores. There’s no question that this child is in complete awe of his grandpa, which is understandable.
He’s spellbound
The longer Grandpa Joe plays and does some fancy runs, the smile on his grandson’s face gets bigger and bigger. His eyes light up and when his grandpa hits a high note, this sweet boy automatically raises his eyebrows.
A special bond
Braylon and his grandpas have an incredibly tight bond. They love to spend as much time together as possible, just hanging out. It’s a beautiful relationship that just keeps getting stronger and stronger.
Long-time player
Grandpa Joe began playing the saxophone in the third grade and he never stopped. But the instrument he had was beginning to show a lot of wear and tear. Even though it no longer produced a seamless sound, it was good enough for his grandson.
A brilliant idea
But as far as this grandpa’s family was concerned, he deserved more than an old instrument. So, they started a GoFund Me fundraiser to buy him a new one. Then one day, a large box was delivered to his house. At first, he had no idea what it was but soon enough, he found out.
Beyond touched
Immediately, Grandpa Joe started to cry. He was so touched that someone would do this for him. After opening the box, he pulled out the most beautiful, shiny saxophone he’d ever seen. Although he’d long been playing for his grandson, now, his music would sound even better.
