Erena Terakubo - "I'll Remember April" Alto Sax transcription (plus Bb transposition)

CORRECTION: Bar 77 of the Alto Sax part (1:14), beat three should be an F natural. Not sure how I missed that.
Bb part starts at 2:57

In my opinion this is the best sax solo that I have heard since the passings of Dexter Gordon and John Coltrane. Erena please come to Jacksonville, FL.

As a tenor player, I can't thank you enough for the Bb transposition. It's been hard trying to transpose 2:11 by ear (my favorite lick in the solo). Great job!

[@passthebssaxtranscriptions]

Happy the Bb transposition works (i still go back and forth with how to approach doing transpositions, so it's great to hear when people find them useful). Good on you for trying to go by ear, tough but definitely a good skill to develop

2:21 HMMMM THAT SOUNDS FAMILIAR

[@passthebssaxtranscriptions]

Yeah for sure, it's close enough that I'd call it "lick"-inspired

[@ItzYatz]

@@passthebssaxtranscriptions Absolutely, made me chuckle a little :)

[@masoniscoo]

I love the lick at 2:24 so much!

[@anthonywilliams6764]

That's a Parker lick.

[@masoniscoo]

@@anthonywilliams6764 yeah I figured out it’s wahoo from bird

[@milon5378]

A great be-bop alto player ! 🙏

[@passthebssaxtranscriptions]

Whoops...... I didn't realise that this transcription had already been done a couple of months ago. I try to pick solos that haven't already been transcribed and posted on youtube, but I just didn't see that someone got to this one first until I had already finished up mine. The youtuber's channel name is: なるべく短いサックスレッスン, and here's the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIaUoJaAfqhlq9E. He did a good job, so it's worth checking out.

[@lyntedrockley7295]

Yes, but you have a Bb version and display full screen. Its really useful. Good job, thanks.

[@passthebssaxtranscriptions]

Awesome, thanks! Still pretty new to this so appreciate the feedback

[@christophbrylka6256]

Yours has the theme as well which is missing in the other transcription. Well done!

[@christophbrylka6256]

Very worth subscribing.

[@passthebssaxtranscriptions]

Thanks a bunch!

[@animeprincess98]

Do you have concert transcriptions?

[@dragolov]

Deep respect!

[@passthebssaxtranscriptions]

Thanks!

[@mrlegitomaki1651]

sounds a lot like baptiste herbin's solo, the lines I mean

[@passthebssaxtranscriptions]

Yeah, he killed it on that tune as well. Think I saw someone had gotten to that one already and posted it, otherwise I'd be tempted to transcribe it myself. I'll be sure to do one of his some time soon though
