New skill

I've been having since like, week 2 and I just now dd my essay for it. I've been playing the Alto Saxophone for awhile now and decided to learn the Trumpet as a second instrument. I'm decent at it. I can only play a few notes but I still have much to learn. For example, by the way, everything I'm about to say I already know on the Sax. Now, eighth notes, sixteenth notes, slurs, ties, sixteenth notes tied to an eighth note, eighth rests, half rests, whole rests, measure repeats, repeat signs, D.C. Al Fine, D.C. Al Coda, B flat concert scale, C concert scale, E flat concert scale, F concert scale, G concert scale, Minor scales, Duets, Trios, Solos, Swing eighths, Sticattos, Tenutos, Soli's, accents, rooftop accents, rooftop sticatto accents, 4-4 time,(Not forty-four but four four)6-8 time, 3-4 time, 2-4 time, cut time, dotted quarter note, dotted half notes, chromatic scales,1st endings and 2nd endings, high notes, and low notes. And much more. Anyways, I've tired my fingers out from typing all that and no, I didn't feel like just typing Etc. It was a learning experience for anyone reading this. Well, Good Night!
