THE ALTOS NOT LOAD ENOUGH

[KingJoeyJunior]

@mikehawk2418 Need to hear the Bari more ;)

[DanceMyStyle]

[facemash]

So good. The soprillo just puts it over the top in my opinion. Having played bass sax for a few semesters I would love to have the opportunity to play contrabass for even a minute.

[34billbob]

[KingJoeyJunior]

This makes me want to get up and clap and dance... Kind of awkward to see that at a funeral XD

[BaritoneSaxKing]

[airsoft911full]

[rotflmaopmpqxyz]

You know what they say. It's not about the size, it's about how you use it ;)

[Bandnerd695]

I love how the Contrabass is sitting on a bucket... classy

[24262748]

Very entertaining :-)

[MrDanielBrisk]

What fun! Coming from a tuba player I need to say this makes me almost take saxophones seriously. lol

Seriously now...great performance!!! and isn't that soprillo cute? Really! Don't you just want to pinch its little cheeks?

Thanks for posting, Witherfordway!!!

[SaxyDylan]

[sopranoandtenorsax]

Soprillo sax!!!!

[thebestestcarrot]

where is the sub contra bass sax

[JiveDadson]

@thebestestcarrot The subcontrabass still lives only Adolphe's imagination. There's a subcontrabass "Tubax," which is like a saxophone with less flare in the tube.

[Dommylaws]

@JiveDadson Actually our current contra player has commissioned the subcontra wihich will look like the contra but just bigger! it should be ready for an outing sometime next year! :)

[matboy891]

[icupfreely23]

[BackInRed123]

@Sbwired2010 I don't think he can bow with that monster of a sax!

[Hidjdjdj]

@BackInRed123 SHES A WOMAN

[BackInRed123]

@Hidjdjdj  forgot the s

[Sbwired2010]

@BackInRed123 I always forget that normal people aren't 6'6" like me and can't bow with a contra

[cabanalosperros]

[Sbwired2010]

well the three smallest (from largest to smallest) are soprano, sopranino, and soprillo

3/5

[skanthology]

AWESOME !!!

[Suuzan92]

Wow. I really like it.

I didn't even knew there was something like a soprillo.

[ExzileVF5]

soprano not soprillo

[Suuzan92]

I play a soprano by myself. A soprillo is something different.

[Onlyforthesaxophone]

@ExzileVF5 he was correct there is a soprillo and a sopronino

[EV4530]

@ExzileVF5 Sopranino

[manta965]

only the british lol

[mopperson101]

this is so awsome

[javiroalvolante]

only european people can do this... jesus christ..

amazing...

[sawaoh]

まるでオーケストラのようだ！素晴らしい！　そして皆さん楽しそう！

[BaritoneSaxKing]

if anyone was wondering what @sawaoh said he or she said "It seems like an orchestra! Amazing! And everyone sounds fun!" I agree, they do sound fun but it doesn't necessarily sound like and orchestra

[dasuberkinchen]

New favorite video... that was amazing.

[TheTumboos]

I would love to hear this in an acoustic auditorium! :)

[daymo93]

[airtypes101]

[poptart0420]

[rf1308]

[12stuart23]

[xloserx4xchristx]

tubax is a modified contrabass.

[Psp1000Fanboy]

I love Tenor Sax its the platypus of all saxophones!

[Zoro4rk]

@Psp1000Fanboy THANK YOU!!!! im not the only one that says that after all haha

[Tonfa00]

ahahah fantastic!!!!

[Yoshidin0]

This is cool

[tnawcwvictoria]

Hey guys, here's another question for all of you:

Now, Claire Tomsett is on the Bass Saxophone, but which other Female Sax Player would you LOVE to see play the Contrabass Saxophone one day?

Well guys, Claire is now on the Bass Saxophone, who knows?

Sally Mactaggart, Catherine Evinson or perhaps Jenny Ashley

Claire did a great job on the Contrabass and she's pretty good on the Bass Sax, too.

This is an Excellent performance from the National Saxophone Choir of Great Britain.

[bikerbo2]

this is amazing! but its not the whole sax family.... they r missing the tubax! o well it is still amazing!

[AelitoKH2Vivi]

tubax is just a compressed contrabass sax that can come in Eb or Bb...

[Psp1000Fanboy]

Contrabass Saxophone is a Tubax

[mikedaguy]

1:20 - 1:34

epic win!

[Undeployedparachute]

Indeed.

[TSDFurReal]

You can just tell they had a lot of fun playing this and this is PROOF that sax players know how to have fun, be awesome, and win.

[estoboy29]

its not about the win its about the fun^_^ surely would be fun to throw around a frisbe with a blunt in it and dance a tune

[TSDFurReal]

Hey, win and fun often come hand in hand but yes. Sax is the most fun hands down. It's so versatile and you can do so much with it. ♥

[estoboy29]

we are all winners so lets see where love takes us? by all winners i mean we all had to swim for our life ^_^ now we can blow some sweet tunes and dance a great amount and so on about what we come up with. lovya

[tnawcwvictoria]

Hey there, what did you think about Claire on the Contrabass Sax?

and also, now that she's on the Bass Sax, which Female would you LOVE to see play the Contrabass Next?

[TSDFurReal]

Not sure. Lol. Though that is an interesting question.

[antigell]

Wow What a joy to watch...

Thanks a lot

[creased4life]

i want that contrabass sax!!! :L

[ShadowBlitz07]

lol bucket

[glizzando09]

I love their music and the bucket!

[miltonsax007]

Me encanta. Es una trabajo excelente. BUENA COREOGRAFIA Y BUEN ARREGLO. ME ENCANTA EL EQUILIBRIO DE LAS VOCES. ESTOY IMPREIONADO. engloba todo el espiritud de lo que es el saxofon.

Felicidades. Espero que me sigan impresionando. Estoy seguro de que el espiritud de Adolpho Sax esta saltando de alegria.

Espero verlos algun dia en vivo

[BaritoneSaxKing]

@miltonsax007 "I love it. It's a great job. Good choreography and good arrangement. I LOVE THE BALANCE OF THE VOICES. IMPREIONADO AM. espiritud encompasses all of what the saxophone.

Congratulations. I hope you continue to impress me. I'm sure the espiritud of Adolphe Sax is jumping for joy.

Hope to see you live someday" I fully agree

[dontron102]

i can play all of them cept for the soprillo and sopranino

[0000kinpin0000]

good for you dontron

[TheTerminalMoose]

I play Soprano, Alto, and Tenor- these guys are such an inspiration! They're as much fun to watch as they are to hear. Fantastic!

[BassAndSaxFreak]

this is so cool. i hav an alto tenor and now a tenor. i want a baritone and it must be like imposible to get enough air through a contrabass sax. soprillo saxs are really cool though i aslo like the sopranino. my main instrument is tenor though.

[lilbiz008]

that is too cool!!! :)

[witherfordway]

Sorry to disappoint but Claire has since moved over to bass - and yes, she can handle any sax or anyone for that matter!

[tnawcwvictoria]

Well can I ask another question if you don't mind?

Can any other Female play the Giant Contrabass in your Saxophone Choir or can I just wait and see and checkback with your website?

If not, then I think I can search for Google to find Female Contrabass Saxophone Players.

[tnawcwvictoria]

@witherfordway she did a great job on the Bass Saxophone @ Sax Circus and she played the Selmer Bass Sax and she could work that baby, but from what I read on the website, she's now on the Baritone Saxophone

is that correct? and if so, there's another Female Bass Saxophone Player?

[tnawcwvictoria]

Hey guys, I LOVE Miss Claire Tomsett, she is THE Best Saxophone Player of the bunch and she is even BETTER on the Contrabass Saxophone, and I know that many of you would agree when I say this: Claire Tomsett can handle any Saxophone whether it be Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Baritone, Bass or the mighty Contrabass, she can definately go, God Bless Miss Claire Tomsett and look forward to seeing more of her as well as her playing her almighty Contrabass Saxophone, hope you have more videos of her.

[0000kinpin0000]

nah, I'm afraid Sally Mactaggart is the best.

[tnawcwvictoria]

Hey, I like her, too and she's one of the best Sax Players as well.

[ManlySlut]

I think this is the order (left to right)

soprano, sopranino, tenor, bass, contrabass, baritone, soprillo, alto

[quagmire475]

theres (smallest) soprillo - sopranino - soprano - alto - tenor - barritone - bass - contrabass (biggest)

[sgp1996]

hey this is really cool! I play the tenor sax and i thought mine was big well maybe it is cause i just turned 13 but the contrabass is huge!

[thewelford]

Sax is why I double.

[99989oi]

miss tomsett is amazing!!! (shes the one at the back!!) i found it funny that u could only kick ur legs out!!!! heeehee

[tnawcwvictoria]

She sure is, that's what I LOVE about her.

She can definately play the Contrabass Saxophone, and she's the best, IMO.

She can play big instruments, I would LOVE to see more of Claire playing her Contrabass Saxophone again, I hope that you guys have more videos of that.
