Beautifully done.

[@pauldeweert4174]

Hi. I agree with all the comments. For more development I like to hear something about the chord tones. Root third etcetera till 13th major/minor..... thanks.

[@chrisangermeier38]

Nice. Love your videos. Please share with us what your gear is on this video. Love your sound!

[@shipsahoy1793]

Coleman Hawkins plays the I and IV measure in the A sections like it's all in I major. So, the IV ends up being IV major 7 instead of IV dominant 7. Different from the Real/Fake Book.

[@kingseth2628]

Goddamn that shit sounds beautiful

[@Sirvalorsax]

Thanks

[@BobDoherty]

Totally agree! Great sound. What mpc are you playing here?

[@richardwright9698]

[@Sirvalorsax]

No. My schedule will not allow for it

[@tjtj3829]

Just now picking up the saxophone over 40. I play other instruments and I've been watching your channel. Here's my question. What is the best way about going to play any note at any time over any music I want ? I'm working on the scales. But really it doesn't help you improvise and play overall music. Or just doodle if you want. I'm only about two and a half weeks in.

[@XavierJordanMusic]

Long tones!

[@tjtj3829]

​@@XavierJordanMusicthanks but just doing long tones isn't going to do it I come off of playing the trumpet so I get it. Thanks for your input but I'll figure it out

[@kingseth2628]

What exactly is your question, can you specify a little more

[@tjtj3829]

Let me rephrase the question so you can understand. I want to be able to sing through my saxophone. Play any note at any time as if it was my voice? I have a pretty good singing voice. Check out my channel. Alice in chains nutshell cover

@@tjtj3829 Im not sure if it comes down to one single thing that you’d have to practice. But some of the things I’ll suggest is to get really good at playing by ear: memorizing a great variety of music by ear. You’ll get better and better at bridging the gap, or delay between your brain and your hands because notes will seem so much more recognizable and easier to anticipate. Having a solid understanding of Music theory will reinforce you ability to just play the “next” note without pausing to think. Knowing how to outline chords and create permutations with chord tones so you can create your own vocabulary are parts of the process With Jazz for example: one of the many ways to learn it is by learning a shit ton of solos, fully or partially, so you can understand the language.
