I just went through all the comment pages up to p.#9 I think. I can't believe all those whiners criticizing Saori's intonation. Are you guys out of your mind ?
How many of you toured with Randy Brecker ? How many of you had Jimmy Cob playing drums in your rhythm section when you were 18 y.o. ? How many of you had James Moody recording and touring with you ?
Go back to the woodshed and keep practicing, before you open your mouth criticizing the real genius.

Yup, beautiful technique, sound quality, and crisp production of notes. First I heard of her but you can bet gonna be getting the CD! @chihiromania Thanks for posting!
i dont know which brand my sax is but she is beautiful. i need to practice more because she makes me sound like a kid that doesnt know how to play even though im first chair in concert and jazz band.
@TheDarkLordofSaxes - I play a Mark VI tenor and Selmer Super Action 80 Series II alto and soprano. Why do you ask and why would you choose to ask me if I play a Jupiter? I've played some very nice Yanagasawas over the years.
Pitch is terrible. Those old Conn 6M altos had a great sound but their intonation renders them almost unlistenable. What shame because the sound, time, ideas and spirit are so amazing in this performance.
That must be why Bird sounded so awful - he played a 6M. Same with Benny Carter and Willie Smith. But seriously, if set up and played right they have intonation at least as good as a Mk VI, which also had its intonation criticized relative to the SBA. She sounds fine. You want to duel with her?
@gcrav First of all Bird played on any cheap horn he could pick up at the pawn shop before the gig started, and his ideas, tone, and intonation were all 1,000 times better than this, dont get me wrong she sounds great most of the time, but to say Bird sounded awful must mean you have bad taste!
@gcrav Huh. Well, I can only assume that you are being sarcastic. Anything that you can say about Bird (except that he was a genius), the opposite can always be said too. His horn of choice was a Selmer Balanced Action but apparently, it was hocked more often than not so he would play what anyone stuck in his mouth. With titanic substance abuse problems, sometimes he sounded great and other times he simply didn't. Wasn't the horn's fault.
@Musedoc Bird's classic Savoy and Dial recordings were done with his 6M, which he eventually hocked. He recorded a lot with a Super 20 after that.
It strikes me that you're predisposed to hear Saori's use of dissonance as intonation problems because of your own view of Conns. The 26/30Ms are well known for good intonation, which is why they are the most sought-after Conns. If you have an issue with use of dissonance, that's about aesthetic choices, not intonation.
@gcrav Why are you still on this? Why does this matter so much to you? You don't know me so stop making blanket statements about people you don't know anything about. OK? Just leave me the fuck alone and stop with the comments. Life is beautiful, go out and live it.
Benny Carter was one of the supreme musicians of all time and I never heard him play anything out of tune. Not the horn, dude, it's the player. I loved my old Conn, but they've got intonation problems that clearly have not been overcome in this performance.
@Musedoc Hi just to comment on your statement that conns have intonation problems. This conn the 26m conqueror which I have as well are spot on with their intonation. Which conn did you have?
@gcrav finally, gcrav, why do you take my objective observation so personally? If you dig her playing, dig on. I don't. So, who cares? As far as the pitch is concerned, listen to it again. It's a problem.
@Musedoc I cant tell if she's playing with bad intonation on purpose, simply because its constantly biting my ear, in all the same places, and in my opinion its bad taste if it is on purpose. If you download her itunes recordings you can hear it better. I use an old conn chu berry 1920's model for alto, and it plays in tune very well.
@kirboman Don't get me wrong, I LOVE old horns. My VI tenor is from 1955, I used to play a 1936 Balanced alto until I lost it in a fire. One of my flutes is a 1955 Powell. Having said that, old horns require a lot of attention on pitch but having said THAT, nothing sounds like an old horn! They're definitely worth effort?
@Musedoc Hi she is actually playing a 26m conqueror and I have the same horn and there is no intonation problems with mine they are supposed to be the best conn ever made. basically the same horn as a 6m which I also have but with a lot of extras. Cant believe you say they are rendered almost unlistenable. I compare my 6m and 26m to my Yamaha 82Z and although the vintage horns are darker the intonation is spot on. probably which is why they are one of the most sought after of vintage horns.
Thank you for this post. its so kool... they are very talented.. just love it,,, thanks again... for the wonderful tune.. BRAVO!!..... please keep the music flowin.. its great. Giorgio from CALIF. USA... God Bless. :)
You are most refreshing saxophone player I've seen since bird, you have master the saxophone. I truely love your playing, you are the best jazz player and I love your trio.
Saori's Jazz chops on that saxophone are graceful while still maintaining emphasis on each note in an elegant fashion. She as well as Akita's trio are exemplifying the TRUE essence of Jazz. I just love it!
@martynau you're out of your mind. She is good though. But there are better players that are still alive as well. You might be partial to her for whatever reason.....and that's fine. I happened to think she plays good and I think its even much more blessing to see this type of playing come from across the world. But the type of strides that Cannonball, Bird, Coltrane etc made in their lifetime has yet to be matched.....even by the likes of Wynton...
i love ur playing wow who is the composer of that song wow !!! im a freshman in hi skool n i bin playing sin 6th grade. i just love ur playing . .lol nive high notes
I have no music background and never played an instrument in my life. My parents were Iowan farmers so I had a deprived but loving childhood. So where do I start if I want to play the sax like Bill Clinton? Sax makes a such a chilling and deeply romantic sound. How do I learn the basics-like how to read music sheets, principles of rhythm,etc.. I have an MD degree but music illiterate. How sad eh?
@Microglia1 well, you can take lessons, or you can find books on music theory. There are jazz theory books too, so you might wanna check those out (or find it all online) . Music is a language, so once you learn the notes (characters), you can make words (chords), then phrases. It's not sad because you don't think it's impossible.
tHANK YOU FOR your advice on learning jazz. I'll do my best to find the right mentor. I love the impromptu screams and shrieks, a kind of beautiful sorrow only a sax can make.
Not sad at all, every great musician was once someone who never picked up an instrument. Even if you never become a top tier musician the joy you get from playing is priceless.
Just go to your local music stores and ask about local teachers, you'll find someone in no time to give you the basics and then just listen and play and listen some more then play some more then listen, play, listen, play
A decision to start playing an instrument is always a good decision
I'm in a somewhat similar situation. My parents weren't farmers, though, but I spent most of my childhood trying to stay away from music (thanks to the piano). Last November, I decided to learn how to play the saxophone...even though I had long forgotten how to read music. My suggestion would be to get a book like "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Music" to help with the basics of music. However, taking saxophone lessons from a real live teacher (as opposed to a DVD) is necessary, too.
its just like learning another language. You gotta learn the grammar (theory), practice and listen to the language. It takes awhile and no musician ever stops learning. However it is worth it, when you are a musician you dont work once in your life, I have never met a musician which is not happy about it.
@Microglia1 There are also better role models than Bill Clinton in the music world. haha try listening to all of the old jazz players, saxophone or otherwise. it will really help with the learning process.
they dont sound great like other players i like, but they totaly knocked me out with their unique sound - maybe because of their nationality they earned a different ear to the same music we all gather to hear.
OMG her appearance was an absolute curveball... I saw the pretty make-up and and dress and bow and the flower, and was totally expecting some sort of a lame-ass Kenny G sound-alike to depreciate the value of my sense of hearing. Then she absolutely defies her appearance and kicks that saxophone's ass!!!
I believe blacks are the main source of the creation of jazz. But today we see that the music is almost exclusively being played by whites (or asians).
Blacks for the most part have abandoned this music for what passes as mainstream (hip hop, rap, etc.). Go to a jazz venue almost anywhere and virtually the entire audience is white. Same for the musicians.
@len344 where are you getting this information from? I wouldn't doubt that "most" jazz in clubs in the U.S. and Europe have significant amounts of white musicians. But that doesn't surprise me as blacks only make up 11% of the U.S. population and even fewer of the European population. But I bet you don't suspect that blacks make up only 11% of modern jazz music. So the notion is silly. True other artforms have been picked up and hybrids have been made of different forms. But there are...
@len344 of modern day blk jazz musicians. The question is, have you done a good search of some good jazz music, or have you been color blinded to believe your original premise. If you are into good jazz music....then just listen....and let the colors/races fall where they may.
@JColeM7785 unfortunately, I think you have missed my premise here. I'm not suggesting that any racial group is better than another when it comes to playing jazz. All I'm saying is that in today's America interest in jazz has been significantly reduced overall among the public and I think that those who remain interested are more likely to be white than black. I make no judgment about the music or the players. If I like it I don't care who's playing it.
@len344 i'm not saying that you think any racial group is better....I just think the mostly whites and asians are interested in this type of music is ill-informed. For example, hip-hop is by far large the most transcending music form to date...with the assistance of the internet etc. But its popularity amongst the youth cannot be ignored, that includes whites and asians. But specifically toward blacks....it is true that jazz isn't nearly as "important" as it once was but I'd argue it never...
@len344 was more influential than the blues was in terms of "maintstream" appeal. However, I believe we are only talking blacks in the U.S. correct? If so, i'd argue that proportionally speaking blacks are more significant than 10% in modern jazz, and that trend is starting to increase with programs designed to introduce and provide instruments to people of financial hardship......I think only one conclusion is evident....that jazz, blues, and even hip-hop was born out of the purest areas....
@len344 ....areas of expression....and that's disenfranchisement, inequality etc. And in that since....as far as Americans go....there is little argument on the level of inequality that a black american experiences. But none the less she plays very well.
to the person who told me to be quiet! At the age of 5, I was playing 3 conga drums; when I entered grade school, I fell in love with the Clarinet, played it for eight years ;starting in the 6th grade! I picked up the guitar at 14 and became a professional musician at the age of 17! My Creole French grandmother gave me this gift of music! She played guitar when she was young, but I never knew until she got sick with Cancer;so, I wanted to keep her alive inside me! So I learned to play to guitar
You were not a professional guitarist after three years of playing. I go to school with people who are ranked top 5 in the nation on guitar and they are certainly not professional musicians. Go get a degree in performance, then you will be a professional musician.

I have no music background and never played an instrument in my life. My parents were Iowan farmers so I had a deprived but loving childhood. So where do I start if I want to play the sax like Bill Clinton? Sax makes a such a chilling and deeply romantic sound. How do I learn the basics-like how to read music sheets, principles of rhythm,etc.. I have an MD degree but music illiterate. How sad eh?

@Microglia1 well, you can take lessons, or you can find books on music theory. There are jazz theory books too, so you might wanna check those out (or find it all online) . Music is a language, so once you learn the notes (characters), you can make words (chords), then phrases. It's not sad because you don't think it's impossible.

tHANK YOU FOR your advice on learning jazz. I'll do my best to find the right mentor. I love the impromptu screams and shrieks, a kind of beautiful sorrow only a sax can make.
Microglia1 2 years ago
Not sad at all, every great musician was once someone who never picked up an instrument. Even if you never become a top tier musician the joy you get from playing is priceless.
Just go to your local music stores and ask about local teachers, you'll find someone in no time to give you the basics and then just listen and play and listen some more then play some more then listen, play, listen, play
A decision to start playing an instrument is always a good decision

I'm in a somewhat similar situation. My parents weren't farmers, though, but I spent most of my childhood trying to stay away from music (thanks to the piano). Last November, I decided to learn how to play the saxophone...even though I had long forgotten how to read music. My suggestion would be to get a book like "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Music" to help with the basics of music. However, taking saxophone lessons from a real live teacher (as opposed to a DVD) is necessary, too.

its just like learning another language. You gotta learn the grammar (theory), practice and listen to the language. It takes awhile and no musician ever stops learning. However it is worth it, when you are a musician you dont work once in your life, I have never met a musician which is not happy about it.

@Microglia1 There are also better role models than Bill Clinton in the music world. haha try listening to all of the old jazz players, saxophone or otherwise. it will really help with the learning process.

they dont sound great like other players i like, but they totaly knocked me out with their unique sound - maybe because of their nationality they earned a different ear to the same music we all gather to hear.

OMG her appearance was an absolute curveball... I saw the pretty make-up and and dress and bow and the flower, and was totally expecting some sort of a lame-ass Kenny G sound-alike to depreciate the value of my sense of hearing. Then she absolutely defies her appearance and kicks that saxophone's ass!!!

Just about everyone you listed is deceased.
I believe blacks are the main source of the creation of jazz. But today we see that the music is almost exclusively being played by whites (or asians).
Blacks for the most part have abandoned this music for what passes as mainstream (hip hop, rap, etc.). Go to a jazz venue almost anywhere and virtually the entire audience is white. Same for the musicians.
The survival of jazz is dependent on
the players and the audience of today.

that's racist! if u don't like poeple who play jazz, then don't listen to it at all.
We don't need your stupid opinion, that only black people are capable in music, so shut the hell up!
myzpautis 2 years ago
@len344 where are you getting this information from? I wouldn't doubt that "most" jazz in clubs in the U.S. and Europe have significant amounts of white musicians. But that doesn't surprise me as blacks only make up 11% of the U.S. population and even fewer of the European population. But I bet you don't suspect that blacks make up only 11% of modern jazz music. So the notion is silly. True other artforms have been picked up and hybrids have been made of different forms. But there are...

@len344 of modern day blk jazz musicians. The question is, have you done a good search of some good jazz music, or have you been color blinded to believe your original premise. If you are into good jazz music....then just listen....and let the colors/races fall where they may.
JColeM7785 1 year ago
@JColeM7785 unfortunately, I think you have missed my premise here. I'm not suggesting that any racial group is better than another when it comes to playing jazz. All I'm saying is that in today's America interest in jazz has been significantly reduced overall among the public and I think that those who remain interested are more likely to be white than black. I make no judgment about the music or the players. If I like it I don't care who's playing it.
len344 1 year ago
@len344 i'm not saying that you think any racial group is better....I just think the mostly whites and asians are interested in this type of music is ill-informed. For example, hip-hop is by far large the most transcending music form to date...with the assistance of the internet etc. But its popularity amongst the youth cannot be ignored, that includes whites and asians. But specifically toward blacks....it is true that jazz isn't nearly as "important" as it once was but I'd argue it never...
JColeM7785 1 year ago
@len344 was more influential than the blues was in terms of "maintstream" appeal. However, I believe we are only talking blacks in the U.S. correct? If so, i'd argue that proportionally speaking blacks are more significant than 10% in modern jazz, and that trend is starting to increase with programs designed to introduce and provide instruments to people of financial hardship......I think only one conclusion is evident....that jazz, blues, and even hip-hop was born out of the purest areas....
JColeM7785 1 year ago
@len344 ....areas of expression....and that's disenfranchisement, inequality etc. And in that since....as far as Americans go....there is little argument on the level of inequality that a black american experiences. But none the less she plays very well.

to the person who told me to be quiet! At the age of 5, I was playing 3 conga drums; when I entered grade school, I fell in love with the Clarinet, played it for eight years ;starting in the 6th grade! I picked up the guitar at 14 and became a professional musician at the age of 17! My Creole French grandmother gave me this gift of music! She played guitar when she was young, but I never knew until she got sick with Cancer;so, I wanted to keep her alive inside me! So I learned to play to guitar

You were not a professional guitarist after three years of playing. I go to school with people who are ranked top 5 in the nation on guitar and they are certainly not professional musicians. Go get a degree in performance, then you will be a professional musician.
