Your music is awe-inspiring. I played the sax (alto, tenor, barry) for 4 years and havn't been able to play for a long time due to medical reasons. I pray that I can someday soon, but until then.... thank you so much for sharing!! It's beautiful, and gives me goosebumps. Thank you for bringing up such happy memories:)
My original comment just froze on the screen in YouTube and, I guess, was not posted. To reiterate: WOW! Impressive. I play (tenor) saxophone as well as the piano and I would love to play this arrangement. It's so calm and collected - and moving. I do have an arrangement of Over the Rainbow - strictly Jazz piano - on YouTube - but I love the combination of the REAL saxophone with your MIDI backbround. I'm trying to learn MIDI too (Cakewalk Sonar 7), but have lots to learn. Thanks for this.
The backing is my own...(created as a midi)...but it's a fairly close representation of Eva Cassidy's arrangement with some additional instrumentation.
Thank you, Scott. I posted an Eva style version of Autumn Leaves last month, and I've been toying with an arrangement of Danny Boy off and on for a few months now. It may or may not get recorded. I just have to wait for the proper inspiration.
Lovely!!!!!!!!!!

The best ever over the rainbow on saxophone,

Is the backing your own?
