This is me, charlez360, playing my Yamaha (YAS-275, 4C mouthpiece) Alto saxophone and my Jean-Baptiste (480T, Dukoff D7 mouthpiece) to Beyoncé Knowles' hit, "Halo." I actually heard this yesterday for the first time. I feel like a douche because I had never heard it before, and it's been so popular.
Ok, I pick up the alto in this vid, it's definitely been a while. I just wanted to remind you guys that I can "Giit R Done" with my alto too, even though I prefer tenor. Enjoy, I appreciate all ratings, comments, favorites, and of course, subscriptions.

[@rudyvasquez9343]

Same! I was in 7th grade

[@user-cp3wc5yj3g]

Can’t believe it’s been 12 years since I first heard this masterpiece from Charlie. My wife who passed away recently loved this video and we watched this so many times in her last days.

[@NathanAllenSax]

This has got to be a KZbin classic by now, it inspired so many people to start making their own covers and now we have a pretty strong community of Sax Cover artists. Great stuff!

[@johnkong635]

Allen Music is like your comment thank you and one day in want to play saxophone

[@thetiktaalik775]

Allen Music no offense but, looking at your comment gave me one hell of nostalgia shot. Are you still on your grind?

[@TheMendoza2008]

[@JaggedFish104]

God after so many years I finally remembered the masterpiece that was this man’s cover. I remember being in intermediate school wanting to play like this guy. Wow, getting to college and still wanting the same came fast

[@BLISSEcstasyGAMING]

Who just doesn't love the alto sax, some people are just biased about alto and tenor but alto sax is a sound for thr soul

[@ashanderson8977]

I came across this video when I was in 6th grade and I'm now going to be a sophomore in college. This video made me want to play sax and I've been playing ever since. THANK YOU

[@101spartanlec]

I actually heard this cover before listening to the actual song in 2011 when I started playing sax when I was in middle school. Nice to come back to this masterpiece🎶 This cover earned the title 🎷✨Nostalgic✨🎷

I'm a tenor in school and still learning how to play it , you guys are amazing.

[@kadenn8811]

I thought I was ok at saxophone... But then you came.

[@Crisp_Crow]

KN Notes Play Holst's shit. Then you will feel like a saxophone god

[@FaisalAminUsman]

🤣♥️🙏

[@purplemile2]

What are kN notes. Been over 20 years since i played and just this week i found my sax in my parents attic. I thought it was ruined in the house fire of over 20 yrs ago. The case really protected it. There are 2 new reeds in their in perfect condition. Will my pads be ok..they look ok. Have yet to play..afraid of mildew and dust bur like i said...protected beyond my wildest dreams. If i want to brush up and then learn to play notes i never knew existed. If you check out jimmy sax on youtube you will be simply ultimately awakened. I WANT to play like him but create more genre. He uses same beat just about for all songs. Does anyone know gim and how can i get wickedly great fast. I was a gifted improviser more than established note reader. I can read music but hard stuffs here lies the issue...practicing. i use to get bored as a kid during my lessons in school. How or where can i go on youtube or anywhere where learning is easy easy eadsy and fun? Same goes for guitar, drums , piano, harmonica and playing guitar tapping style. If you don't know what I mean by playing the guitar popping style check it out on KZbin I don't know what it's officially called but it is incredible

[@Antonio-li5mg]

Muito bom! Parabéns! / Very Good! Congratulations!

[@donutfilms4124]

This got me into playing the saxophone back in 5th grade. Well into highschool now and I don’t play anymore but still come back to this video to appreciate what got me started

[@ACUAirsoft16]

I know your going to be a famous sax player. You are so good and have great sound.

[@conzpicuouz]

+TiTanX Agreed man!

[@christiancruz2749]

Thank you, charlez360. You inspired me on trying out the saxophone, and I did. I'm still not really good at it, but I love it. Thank you!

[@tootrillmel]

heard this 12 years ago when he dropped it when I first started playing in 7th grade 🤍 so many memories listening to your channel🤍🤍

[@user-dt6uo6zr6o]

Тот человек, который придумал эту мелодию,-это просто какой-то правильный демон гармонии, а голос Бейонсе ставит перед выбором: либо учить ноты, либо наслаждаться данным произведением! ...От души и для души... Таких сонгов очень мало... Респект и уважуха за кайф!

[@HCSNMCO]

You inspired me a couple of years ago with your pure and clear sound, I tried to play the same way and the same kind of tracks. However I couldn't play the exactly right tunes like you can. But now I tried something that's more my own thing; making sax edits of deep house and lounge tracks. Although its a whole different kind of sax playing, it all started with this song. Thanks! You can check out all my sax edits on my channel if u like ;)

[@johnjpeterson]

This is good, but your more current ones are much better. Keep it up though. You were the first to inspire me to start recording my sax stuff on youtube.

[@Razorusskie]

You play that so beautifully it almost makes me cry. I like it better than the original!

[@matthiaswinther5395]

This sax sounds absolutely stunning.

[@DDWilliamsYT]

Alto Sax is where it is at! :D

[@destinyleroy9308]

[@Em-jf7rv]

Found this video in 2010 when I started playing sax in 6th grade band as an 11 year old. I still come back to listen to this beautiful cover. I just graduated college and I’m 23 now. But this cover is in my heart always tbh

[@jarrodneu7229]

He is so talented I listen to his music everyday! Buying my first alto sax this week

[@saltiestsatan318]

I play the tenor saxophone c: my teacher loves it because im the only female/only one who plays the tenor saxophone in the school c: AND IM SOO HAPPY BECAUSE MY BAND TEACHER SAID ONLY ME AND MY FRIEND MARY ARE GOING TO MAKE AND CONDUCT A SONG FOR THE CONCERT!!!!!!!!!!! and plus me and mary are going to create a song to play to the 1st graders, and talk about them c:

[@animalbaran]

I was an only female sax player too :p It's pretty rad especially when the teacher says you're playing better than the guys. I played alto for only one semester and tenor for the rest of middle school. The guys played tenor/baritone for 2 semesters xD Girls can do anything guys can, and the sax is not a male instrument :)

[@mindflood703]

I play alto,tenor,and Bari!

[@tristancrosby7718]

If you know one sax, you know them all

[@tristancrosby7718]

I know all of the Saxophones im saying if you can play one sax, you know how to play them all.

[@RicardoMartinez-de5db]

Tristan Crosby Um... no. If you know how to "play" one saxophone - you don't know all of them. Knowing how to play one saxophone does not mean you know how to play all of them. You only know the "fingerings." Secondly, most saxophone players can't even master the embouchure! They can't keep their vowel sounds, and they have a tendency to play bright (and I don't mean the jazz kind of "bright..."). lol I bet if you go from an Alto to a Baritone (and even from a Tenor to a Baritone), you'd most likely either squeak or gust air. lol Playing Soprano requires a much higher level of skill to "play well." Mastering a saxophone requires years of practice (and that's only one).

[@RicardoMartinez-de5db]

***** All saxophones occupy different embouchure. Some bigger than others, not to mention vowel sound - which is an "O" shape for all saxophones. Because each saxophone is manufactured differently - all the subtleties, such as: note sounds and volume in contrast to one another vary depending on the player. Embouchure is another big thing. Where you place your tongue is crucial - keeping your tongue in contact with both molars in the back is essential to create faster air speed. This enables for a broader range of notes and tone quality. Practicing over-tones enables the lower and higher ranges of the saxophone. But we're only talking about one saxophone. Each saxophone is different - you can learn these differences as you go from one to the other as you gain enough knowledge and experience (e.g. practicing lower notes, nuances, etc.) Not to mention styles - that's a whole other story. There is so much to know about one saxophone before you know about the others, just because of the nature of the type of saxophone.

[@tristancrosby7718]

Well you seem to be quite the expert then. Im not sure why you think everyone is wrong because of your dumb embouchure ideas. Going from one saxophone to another isn't as difficult as you have made it seem. From playing Bari, Tenor, and Soprano in a musical pit it was fairly easy to transition from one to another with excellent tone. I'm sure if you want to be so decisive about where your tongue should be when playing sax you are working too hard. Everybody has a different style of playing and varies from one to another but its not that big of a deal.

[@alexanderwoodroffe3782]

that's better than beyonce singing...

[@jasonwilliams3798]

hella inspirational!!,just awesome & dope,this guy literally inspired me to take my sax that I haven't played in a while and play some good music like this!

[@supergogeta2003]

You are my inspiration that's why I play the sax because of you thank you!

[@ShadowOfTheSpartans]

No offense to the artist, but the tenor is being overblown way to much. Alto's fine, just the tenor's having some issues.

[@madelynnreynoso4320]

the artist was pushing the tenor. some peices r made more complex for professionals so just a challenge. like be I love challenging music cuz people r just like wow!

Dr Goebbels what the hell is wrong with being gay, whybwould you use that as an insult. Only immature 8 year olds think being gay is a bad thing. Idk I think using the term gay as an insult is dumb and out of date

[@thomasgipson1616]

A lot of editing, and playing with the most trebly sound you possibly can. Also, dont forget to lose all of the fundamentals that you might have learned at one point. These videos are very misleading. A saxophone doesnt sound like that, nor should it sound like an echoed slice of metal. Tune your saxes and it will sound so much better! Do some long tones and get that wobbly sound out of here. I like what you're doing, dont get me wrong. Im only trying to help you improve! :)

[@stevenzhao7147]

im pretty sure most modern music has some kind of edit in their singing and insturments

[@07BETKA]

Nádhera není co dodat ,nato že sis nahrál dvě výšky ,dost super jen tak dál.

[@MauriatOttolink]

And how it sounds like you know....

[@RicardoMartinez-de5db]

And probably practice articulation and rhythm with a metronome... just maybe. lol

[@RicardoMartinez-de5db]

Steven Zhao We understand that, but even with all the editing and effects - any saxophone player with a great understanding of the instrument knows that he lacks fundamentals - not to mention, intonation, nuances, balance, control, embouchure, articulation, technique and the list goes on and on. (really, it does go on and on)

[@frolianmoreno1740]

Absolutely beautiful . music can do so much for the soul can bring you to a dark place . but it can also give you that light that glimmer of hope that ray of sunshine. Beautiful music

[@Christal9740]

Y’all did SOO GOOD!!❤

[@noelaruldas1152]

Hurrah! What a wonderful performance. Really fantastic! I wish you all the best for performing many pieces dear couple! When both of you are accompanied by drums and piano it gives more pleasant sense. When both of you simultaneously play it gives the effect of playing dual melody on reed organ. When both of you alternatively play the voices of alto and tenor saxophones are clearly understandable.

[@arnoldmankosi2656]

wow the instruments sounds good though. you doing a good job charlez. feeling relaxed when listening to ya talent. mega love for ya.
