[blackbuskit247]

I want a saxophone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[SamLamberts]

i got my first sax, but i dont get any soudn iout of it)))

whats wrong?)

[thall7563]

@SamLamberts um if you got it from a pawn shop you got a bad sax. If you got it from a reliable store then maybe your not doing something right with the mouthpiece or reed.

[MrDragonballs45]

i can't see the notes no offence.

[torgpolariski]

if you've played an instrument, like a clarinet before, for example, its actually easy to understand the videos

[OrinjFlames24]

People in the comments are retarded he never said consert c scale, he just said c scale although that normally wouldn't be spesific we know that he is just talking about the alto sax so it is correct

[SadMarkus]

okay first of all i really appraciate your effort but damnt it....i am an absolute novice and i wanna learn how play this damn thing:D and youre going so FAST dude, yep its the easiest scale u can ever play ..but I wanna know which fingers youre holding...so i better find a better video...?

[glowsom]

My goodness... u know, Instead being offensive with your comments, u could be much nice with your tone in effort to help instead of dishonoring his efforts to teach freely. Some people actually pay for worse teachers without being aware...

Keep up the good work Sir...

[woutanh2]

@glowsom That would imply he is doing good work.

[glowsom]

@woutanh2 Of course. It is good work to put out videos to help whoever will find it helpful. If anyone doesn't find it helpful, it is only courteous to ignore the video. It takes some good effort to put up these videos

[woutanh2]

@glowsom

Yes, however- as a music educator and professional saxophonist, I feel as though mis-information should NOT be ignored. Rather, to ignore poor teaching and modeling skills would be discourteous to those learning the instrument.

My advice? Find a reputable saxophone teacher, and take lessons. Videos are not an adequate replacement for a real teacher, and poor quality videos are even less so.

[glowsom]

@woutanh2 lol... Thank you

[mkhockeyfan41]

i love the sax

[yankeeruth1932]

Eb??????????

[chiknzrule99]

wtf that's not even a c scale its Eb

[1994BlackEagle]

learn your concert keys. really

[handyboy2000]

Thia might be useful if we could actually see what keys your fingers are pressing. Did you bother to look at the video before you posted it?

[Cicilau1]

yeah...we can't see dummassss

[InverseSun]

Uh, no?

D# = Eb.

[Baltizori]

How can D# be C? If I look at a piano the D# scale is D#, not C. D#=3 accidentals, no?

[triiish95]

Why can't I make the lower notes play?

[sgtr9969]

ok i just started playing sax and how come the c scale is actually the D# scale why is this?...

[Retropact]

Piano and Saxophone are not in the same key. A saxophone is 3 half-steps below concert pitch. Meaning if you play a D# on a piano, you would have to play a C on an alto sax to match the pitch. So D# = C

:)

[monkeys350]

@zeffy00 C is the same as A minor... D# minor would be for F# major...
