if eddy twisted the mouthpiece clockwise a little, he'd probably play like a natural. he's blowing in it crooked and still getting a decent sound around the end. brett just seems to be panicking. he makes a mistake, panicks, makes it worse, panicks, and soon there's only squeeks and silence. 40 hours of practice should fix that right up.

Emma used to play violin as a kid, but she hated it

[@MyKingJesus1]

You know, the best part of learning instruments is that no matter how difficult it is, if you just keep practicing, it becomes instinctive to the point where you don't have to think anymore. You just do it. This video reminds me of those times I struggled learning cello and sax.

[@wassuphoomanimyourlocalali3784]

I feel like he tried to make a pun using sexy and sax but it failed 😂

[@LadyMngwa]

I actually love these puns, they remind me TwoSet older before-PG videos with more adult content (like making fun of composers STDs and such).

[@YumiGoblin]

I think this is probably the best instrument learning video they've done. Emma is such a good teacher!

[@EpicphoneGamer]

09:30 they are laughing about him but obviously he is the only one doing the correct and legit saxophone movement while playing

[@chorizo_jose]

Emma reminds me of my mother, not only because my mom played sax in marching band, but because they’re both sweet and kind.😊

[@midorimatsuda7241]

Emma is a wonderful teacher and they truly were amazing. Starting with a true beginners piece and scales like any student rather than throwing them immediately in the deep end was fun to watch. I really hope that they explore some brass instruments next! Having a true appreciation for the range and difficulty of different instruments only helps you grow as a musician and enjoy music more!

[@miriamjesse1628]

Yes I really want them to try and learn a brass instrument too!

[@testprova7123]

A question for saxophonists with absolute pitch: since the saxophone is a transposing instrument, how do you read one note and hear a different one? I'm a pianist and it seems so strange...

[@feeeshmeister4311]

After a long time you get used to it. When playing I’m thinking in instrument pitch, everywhere else in concert pitch.

[@igivemail3338]

I learned alto saxophone in 4th grade before any other instrument, so I hear everything in Eb. I have to transpose notes into concert pitch if i wanted to make the note name match the pitch (im working on speeding my conversion time up now that ive taken a music theory course)

[@Simon.the.Likeable]

Charts (like Real Books or Bird's Omnibook for example) as usually transposed into the correct keys for your horn (Bb or Eb.) If someone sticks some C concert chart in front of you, you'll have to transpose on the fly, a tone up for Bb or minor third down for Eb. Like anything, it can be achieved with enough practice time.

[@katelyn205]

With enough practice, it’s the same thing as “A flat is the same fingering as G sharp” like “pressing 6 keys down on alto sax is D, which is also known as concert F”

[@cbro9014]

I play both the alto saxophone and the piano and if I want to transfer a piece, what I do is remember that C on the alto is Eb on the piano, and then just transfer accordingly. I did this recently with pirates of the Caribbean lol.

[@jeffreyugochukwu1942]

1:28 - 1:31 The tenor sax is somewhat close to the vocal range of the bari sax since the tenor voice is an octave higher than the baritone, but the tenor sax naturally plays at a much higher range of notes than the baritone where the tenor sax's notes in concert pitch range from Concert A flat in the staff in Bass Clef to altissimo concert E flat in bass clef whereas the bari sax ranges in concert pitch from concert C below the staff in Bass Clef to Concert A flat above the staff in Bass Clef (the reason I refer to the Bass Clef in my explanation is because: Tenor voiced instruments or lower tend to be written in this clef for composers that write their entire musical scores in the key of C (Concert Pitch), and my background is that I played Euphonium in Bass Clef predominately (even though just like the Tenor Sax, it can also transpose to B Flat Treble clef and I know how to read that as well), so it's easier for me to transpose the notes that since that's what I'm used to). So the instruments are much further apart in terms of range of notes, but are closer to vocal range and size.

[@karthussakamoto]

Tenor/bari player here. I would like to clarify that the tenor is in fact a fifth above the bari, that will be all Edit: It is the alto that is an octave above the bari. Almost forgot to mention that too

[@jeffreyugochukwu1942]

@@karthussakamoto I see. Thanks for the clarification

As an 8th grader who has played saxophone for almost three years, I got to say this was hell to watch and I’m no professional I just do it as a hobby😂😂😂

[@gundamthatateataco4729]

I started out on an alto sax, but then moved to a Bari sax. Those first squeaks are to be treasured in my memories. Also, 2set tries clarinet/Bassoon?
