After you’ve spent a considerable amount of time developing ideas for a song you’re learning, when you play that song in the future, is it reasonably similar? How much is playing that same tune in a band improvising on the fly, compared to expressing the ideas you’ve developed and composed while practicing?

@mikeysplace

I find myself experimenting with puffing out cheeks. For one there is a technique called circular breathing, where you momentarily use your cheeks as a temporary air reservoir to briefly fill back up your lungs. Aka pushing the air stored in your inflated cheeks, while you simultaneously breathe in through your nose to reinflate the lungs. Not sure if that is what he is doing for the low notes or not. But as far as experimenting otherwise, I've found that sometimes you can use it to increase continuity in the airstream, especially if the horn has some resistance when blowing in. Low notes require a different mouth contortion and manipulation. Maybe it's something he does to get that velvety full tone. And sometimes it's subconscious, and most sax teachers say not to puff out cheeks but to keep the airstream direct from your lungs using your diaphragm to push air. In summary it could be a combination of factors, hard to articulate in writing, but whatever it is, it works for him👍

On focusing on it looks like he uses it to soften the attack at the beginning of a phrase to get a desired sound. Less harsh? Purely speculation though

Very helpful There’s something about learning and practicing « how the sausage is made » that takes a bit of the magic away of listening. Do you think we have to choose between listening and learning or is there more enjoyment that can come from both learning and listening?

@darrenpetersen2699 10 күн бұрын
My experience (I'm a serious player, went to college, etc ) is that I was so fascinated by what I was hearing that I needed to understand it, needed to be able to replicate it. The joy of listening naturally led to learning... not everyone has that same kind of fascination, and I think it's perfectly fine if they want to stop at the listening part. Different people can enjoy the same thing in different ways.
