Uwielbiam saksofon tenorowy. Piękne, subtelne wykonanie tej cudownej piosenki. Artyzm w każdej nucie. Co za cudowne brzmienie.

[@danielross4391]

I am 80 years old. I have been a Bechet fan for about 60 years. Yours is only the 2nd performance that is better than Bechet's, the other being the solo in High Society. Please consider Bechet's Creole Blues, first line music for a New Orleans funeral, my favorite composition without exception. Thank you.

[@McGillMusicSaxSchool]

Wow. Thanks Daniel! I really appreciate that.

[@danielross4391]

For anyone checking out my claim: Performance of High Society in 1939 by Jelly Roll Morton's New Orleans Jazzmen, Bechet on soprano sax, Albert Nicholas on clarinet. To my knowledge, this is the only competitive solo performance, the way High Society should be performed. Bechet recorded High Society again in 1945, in 1949, and in 1952. These 3 later recordings had noncompetitive solos.

[@danielross4391]

That is, Bechet's only competitive solo performance.

[@lucianotarsitano5298]

Con questo strumento musicale sei imbattibile. Oltre al fatto che, come me, sei un sognatore. Complimenti! Da Fagnano Castello CS (Italia)

[@cloggedopossum4188]

Больше всего люблю саксофон

[@paulynm1]

I cannot find it (or little drummer in your sax school ?)

[@phil1141]

anyone have tips for somone who has been playing euph for 3 years and about to pick up sax

[@McGillMusicSaxSchool]

+dank memes 4 u Good question. The most important thing at the start is getting your embouchure right. Spend some time on slow melodies and long tones to get this right first. Check out my other videos for some help.

[@ian_s7481]

Sidney is the guy to blame for me over using vibrato... 😃😃😃😃

Hello. How do I get the notes to this song for alto saxophone? Thank you.

[@McGillMusicSaxSchool]

+Ivar Dozon Hi Ivan. I have made lessons for alto and tenor inside the members area of my Sax School. You can find out more here: www.mcgillmusic.com

[@ivardozon8064]

Thank you!

[@josephsouaiby4278]

McGill Music Sax School Hi Nigel do your lessons include sheet music cuz I want to know what I'll ne paying for and if it's worth it

[@davidsherrington59]

Your tenor sheet music has a g as first note in bar 14 when it should be an f

[@McGillMusicSaxSchool]

Ok thanks for letting me know.

[@borisaranchuk2279]

You surprise me I was watching the saxophone lessons and I liked it but I think this is the wrong baking track and in my personal opinion it’s not very professional

[@McGillMusicSaxSchool]

Hi Boris, thanks for checking out the video. Actually the backing track in this lesson is just one I made to help me demonstrate how to play the melody and original solo. I like the original solo and I think there is a lot to learn from it to help us all play better improvised solos in this style.
