世界中のサクソフォニストがやってくるサックスマシン。私もその一人で、パリへ行くと必ず訪れます。ヴィンテージサックスが所狭しと並べられた個性的な店内に入るといつもワクワクします。
もちろん修理は信頼してお願いできるし、お買い物も私は事前注文をして安心してしています。(日本語で免税手続きもok!)
皆さんも一度行ってみると、サックスマシンがどんなに素敵なところか分かると思います。
J’ai rencontré Marianne d’Ursin très jeune, alors que je débutais l’apprentissage du saxophone. C’est à l’atelier Sax Machine que j’ai d’abord trouvé un ténor d’étude. Puis, plus tard, c’est là que j’ai
« rencontré » mes instruments : un magnifique ténor, un soprano et l’imprévu… un sopranino.
J’aime l’atmosphère de cet endroit, l’odeur, les instruments qui semblent attendre qu’on les essaie pour être emportés ailleurs, les outils, les tiroirs qui regorgent de petits objets, les sourires et la concentration derrière les établis des petites mains qui travaillent en écoutant de la musique. Un atelier authentique avec de belles rencontres d'amitiés.
Paris 9th arrondissement, a historical quarter
Sax Machine is in the heart of the 9th arrondissement of Paris, near St George street where Adolphe Sax, the inventor of saxophone had established his musical instrument factory. Between 1843 and 1860, twenty thousand instruments were made in his workshop.
We are also at a walking distance from Place Dancourt, where Selmer, the world renowned saxophone maker, had established one of their first workshops.
