You're not only a talented sax player but also a talented teacher. Thanks a lot.

[@OGStazzy]

Wow thanks

[@wandabeyer6768]

Thanks for this video! Just what I needed!!! Thanks again for all your videos.

[@dalemccullough5693]

Great concept to keep in mind. Thanks for the helpful ideas, Scott.

[@Michael-ol7wm]

Thank you Scott, for this and all of your educational videos on saxophone techniques etc. You are a outstanding musician 👏

[@unclemick-synths]

I could have benefited from the triplet exercises 30 years ago when I was playing in square-dance bands - those are great for changing up jigs. Great lesson 👍

[@scottmcconnaughey1493]

Very useful exercises--thanks for putting this out there!

[@kimheath3536]

So useful! Brilliant...I shall work this into my practice. Cheers matey : )

[@gotofourths933]

I'll try this tomorrow. I guess it will be helpful much.

[@eshetem5932]

Great lesson thanks bro .

[@johnwilliams2900]

That was a great lesson. It makes easier to understand the timing while transcribing other artist work. As for running your own lines, you can keep time better and understand where you are. Great stuff

[@ScottPaddock]

Hey John! Thanks, yeah I've found that the hardest part with teaching people how to play faster lines is the timing go into them and then coming back out of them. By breaking them down like this, it makes it a whole lot easier to feel and figure out the timing.

[@Rob-ri4pr]

Could you make a video about: how can i back my band? (fills, rythm, chord-backing). thx :)

[@carlosellatigo9378]

Hi Scott, I'm a trumpet player and wondering if your course, musically speaking could be applicable to the trumpet as well?. Just thought you had a great teaching style and could follow along if you thought there was a decent component of drills in there for me. Thanks.

[@augustineahadzi164]

Which mouthpiece are you using?

[@brocksamson8634]

thank you Scott! On the triplets and 16th notes can you describe the tonguing pattern?

[@ScottPaddock]

Hey Brock, good question! For the triplets - tongue the first note of each triplet. For the 16th notes - tongue the first note of the whole 16th note run (no matter how many beats) and then tongue the land note (the first note AFTER the 16th notes). That will really line things up and make them sound clean.

@@ScottPaddock thank you so much

High altissmo is like hot sauce. A little is nice. A lot will ruin your meal.
