ASA Najee! Nice! Do you have a Sax warm up? How r u & Fareed and the famiiies? Long time! When I lost my phone I lost all my numbers so I have been unable to call. Ibrahim & Qur'ana boh are taking Sax lessons at school. Please email me your contact in. We need to talk. daoudshariff@aol.com
Love it! Some days I just love listening to just the instruments by themselves as opposed to hearing a band, or ensemble. Some days for me are just piano, vocals, guitars, lute, and lately it's been the flute. You sound just wonderful.
One of my top 3 songs of yours is Breezy with you on flute. Sweetest Taboo has got to be another top 3 that got me interested in Jazz in the first place so thanks for the inspiration. I dig your clean pristine sound & uncompromised notes even when going out there. Post more please!
All that warm up needs is one of my rhythm tracks and it could go on your next album! Always been a fan, keep making GREAT jazz brother! Hope to meet ya someday...
You are really very kind in sharing this lesson. This is a very high degree of artistry. You have given me the way of practicing the flute to a profesional level. Najee, thank you very much. I have always enjoyed your music both on sax and with the flute. May God bless you and keep on bringing you all the gifts you deserve.
i'm a big fan, have a couple of cuts from your past albums, i'm looking for my favorite song, it's called "sapphire", or "sapphire love". i can't find the song anywhere on youtube. thanks for your time
Wow....that is the most musical warm up i have ever heard!!!love your tribute to Stevie...started comping and playing bass along with this video.....interesting and fun...love your soprano work also
Yo, Bro. Najee thanks for posting this on here, I have been looking for you on flute on YouTube for some time. My Popz you to play you for me when I was a youngin'. I have been on flute now for 6 years and if you have time, could you drop some knowledge on how I can get like you? I am pretty adept at it, but I cannot dance on it like you. Any tips would be great.
Najee, Man this is smokin. I loved it. I certainly hope you do more flute recordings. This made me smile and then made me want to go practice... immediately. keep up the great work
najee, i had the pleasure of meeting of you through kyle turner in houston back in 05 through a clinic given at high school and your playing is still amazing! can't wait for the release of the new cd! ZB
then you must know the "The Firebolts" the hottest band in queens back then Use to go to school with najee, real name reggie, my band was called "Shades of Soul"
Amazing! Im a seventh grader with only two years worth of experience at the flute, but someday i plan on being this great. (:

@stretchmorgan um i think i know wat im doing too. flutes are supposed to be straight. its very uncommon for proper flute posture, though.
KateFantasizes 6 months ago
@KateFantasizes As long as the head is tilted as well, the flute can be tilted.

@BIGGUYLILHORN yes, but if your head is tilted, then your breathing isnt as good as it could be
