Starting from zero

Hello guys!

I m a big fan of sax music but I have absolutely no knowledge about how to play on it.I also have no idea about music and sol-fa.

I got an Alto saxofon as a present 1 month ago and I want to learn from 0 how to play!

Later I knew that's a very cheap chinese sax, 250$, brand startone.

From some youtube videos I learnt how to assemble, hold it, and the right position about how to put it in the mouth, but I m still have some difficulties on playing for more than 7 seconds, (Sometimes I blow but there is no sounds, sometimes I get tired, sometimes I feel like I m in a rush, sometimes it sleps from my hands etc ) Plus it sounds very high that I disturb. Even neighbours who live at 40 meters from us can hear it while I m in my room haha.

I also knew the buttons DEFBAG from some youtube videos.. 

My objective would be to play decently in front of friends and family after 3 months. So I would like to get the opinion of experimented people about what I shall do and the right steps to reach my aim.
 

As I never studied music I cant understand music sheets. But I m enough motivated to learn music theory.

I have 2 hours free per day that I can dedicate to saxophon. My idea was to learn music for 1 hour and then practising for 1 hour. Or 1 day learning music and next day only practising.

If you have any questions feel free to ask me!

I unfortuntaely live in a small village plus I can't afford lessons.

I  m 30 years old.

Than you in advance!
