  • You're pretty awesome. I can't lie. I'm a freshman I have played the trumpet for 3 years in the school band. Haha, I can play a triple F, but I can't put in songs. It's really pinched and it sounds terrible, but I can play it. But the trumpet isn't really an instrument for soft and beautiful tones. You can make it pretty and smooth and add emotion, but I want to play a saxophone. It's nice.

  • @TheDug1997 I play alto sax and clarinet and have just started trombone i think it'd be easier for you to go from brass to wind its just you have to remember fingers not valve combinations

  • Nice man good tone. I just put my second sax video. Check it out bro

  • OMG! Cool bro!

  • you are amazing man! great job with this song!

  • wow nice ;D

  • Great job, man.

  • Can some

    One help me get these notes?! I wanna play this ! Good job. Aha

  • O___o you are good...

  • And here's the second post! You have you scales settled and your overtones are awesome. but as previously mentioned I think it lacks soul because it's done "after the book" if you know what I mean. There's not much use of ornamentation at all. (flagiato, vibrato, bending, etc). My advice to you is to practice ornamentation and look around for a different mouthpice, a different neck and a different reed. Look for a mouthpiece with a bigger opening : ) But all in all very good!

  • Hey dude! : ) Nice cover, but I miss the soul in it :( You sound a lot like a classic musician trying to do something a jazz musician would do. For instance in this song you play the main melody in the second octave instead of using it as the harmoniser when you get to the chorus. Using the first octave would give us a better feeling for this song considering the original is "vocally" sung pretty deep and thus it gives us the appropriate feeling the song needs to convey. I need to post twice..

  • very good job two questions what type of tenor saxophone do you have and what type of mouthpiece and ligature do you use?

  • bravo j'aimerais bien savoir faire sa avec mon petit niveau j'adore

  • i play alto at school the subscriptions i have are mostly all sax's!!

  • Hey do you have any sheet music???

  • good tone but get rid of the echo effect

  • .....Holy....Shit. Brilliant!

  • i play tenor and i have all my notes memorized from low Bb to high F have any tips?

  • @bvpbr now you should learn all your major and minor scales!

  • @BriansThing What do you recommend for developing the tone you have? I have all my fingerings and scales/modes memorized.

  • @threedaygracer long tones

  • Yes!! Wear out your scales and make them a daily part of your warm-up. Also find a few saxophone players you really like (Like Brian here ^_^) and listen to as much of them as you can.

    If you can afford them, private lessons are wonderful too. Especially if you like the guy's style and he's a good teacher.

  • @DJNiexo I'm trying to get my saxophone teacher to listen to Brian because I love his style and I want to play just like him but I'm being taught my saxophone teacher's style which isn't how I want to play........I got my sax teacher to listen to Matt Corey though who is another sax player I like but I really want him to listen to Brian

  • TEAM TENOR! I play Tenor Saxophone at my school.

  • @Turtlesarecool5 I don't too it increase your popularity

  • @saxstudent1 do*

  • @Turtlesarecool5 If the sax sections at your school are anything like my school's they will start singing (badly) and ask for the notes :D and then the other sections will tell you you should be on T.V :D

  • @crazysocks914 In regards to #3, i play it low octave on bari with a friend on alto all the time, student section at our football games loves it :D

  • I love the pelvis thrusting of the Tenor Sax (:

  • @BriansThing what was hat last high note you played? i have those extra keys on my tenor but idk if they go that high! xD

  • @Tivasm It's a high D. Work on your overtones to get there.

  • @BriansThing I can almost play this just like you but on alto and the sound quality isnt as good......what would the high D on tenor be on the alto

  • @199bmx oh good job! It's an A on alto

  • @BriansThing Thanks

  • @BriansThing hey, i have a small favour what is an Eflat (tenor) on the the alto ? its because i dont own a tenor because im a beginner. or else i wouldnt be bothering you right now

  • @saxstudent1 It's a Bb

  • @BriansThing

    What sax, mouthpiece and reed are u using. Also do u play alto and if so how is the transition.

  • @clarence569 Yamaha 62, Dukoff D8, Fibracell 3.5. I first started on alto and then transitioned to tenor. Seemed very similar to me. As you can see by the videos I like playing the tenor a lot.

  • omg yhu are an awesome sax player
