How to Play Jazz Saxophone : How to Play Jazz Saxophone Scales

[saxxmannn1]

um if pentatonic scales are 5 notes then maj and minors are 7 notes not 8 mr sax genious. And yes your intonation is terrible

[winmac3d]

You need to work on your sound

[scotttinkler]

Can't believe they let you teach from jail?

[eatingperson]

This has nothing to do with jazz saxophone. Shades of blue???

[musicsdarkangel]

Thanks expert village. Now whenever I do anything, people make fun of me.

You taught me Muay Thai, Knitting, Jazz Piano, and now Jazz Saxaphone incorrectly. I practiced these videos for years and as soon as I go out, I get made fun of.

[jblplaser]

haha i learned nothing

[valvetrom]

and there I have had it

[Superdry1302]

ew bendy notes

[rhsax]

The best way to motivate students is to show them that you can actually play and inspire them to practice. Give them cds of the greats and show them a standard to work toward.

[Nyanih]

What the fuck is he trying to tell me

[FLeastwood]

expert village is such trash

[Acevedoroberto98]

I No

[since0797]

u call that jazz ha?

[ReIzzle]

i thought they said advanced

[etdejazz]

I'm sorry but this video is so poorly planned, adhoc, no single train of thought. Please redo this video!

[rarriration]

first of all this is a good video as it does what it sets out to do, and for those of us who are beginners it is helpful.

secondly, to all the groovy "experts" who write the negative comments, if you don't like it don't watch it. Do something more constructive with your time like making a better video or examining your own prejudices. You might find out that you are so insecure, that you can't be objective about anything that doesn't fit your rather superficial image of "cool".

[tkdmaster3bd]

lol well i'm not an expert-- i'm a student, but i can still tell you this guy sucks. the. cock. more often than his mouthpiece, i'm guessing.

[FiFiLiveFromGayParee]

@rarriration I agree. the more advanced saxophonists should make a better video so they can help the aspiring musicians out a little.

[CookaFoo]

@FiFiLiveFromGayParee Made one mate(soz for butting in), might not be the best quality but I've posted the actual blues scale and one or two tips on how best to use them.

[FiFiLiveFromGayParee]

@CookaFoo Awesome, I'll definitely check it out :)

[CookaFoo]

@FiFiLiveFromGayParee Oh cheers mate! Thanks very much :)

[saxdonkey]

you really should not be teaching man...i'm sorry but I don't want 6,000 kids copying that sound!

[jdean9]

These videos are the greatest collection ever of completely meaningless sentences. What a treasure! :D

[musiccc568]

there u have what?

[alhubs05]

lmao wtf

[saxgroovez]

?????  And there you have it?

[kinkypeti]

he sounds shit :(

[zombiebeliever]

maybe you should make a better one of you playing "good"

[mykolas5]

Waste of time.. He sounds like shit himself.

[jaybroff]

take this video off; its bull shit and he makes no sense. i think we all know how to play scales

[DrJiim]

Blah. Nasty tone, sound. Bad video.

[BillandCarrie]

Oh dear, this is exceedingly bad. Scooping attacks, no real explanations.

[2Stupid2BeSpoken]

start at one note and go to another...for example, a G to a G

[XxSaxCannon921xX]

What the heck was that? This video should just be taken off...you people are going to get a bad reputation.

[regninolc]

Most of the 90% of my scales which I often use over the 8 note scales are commonly full of 4 notes which can be used over these notes.

Idiot!

[jdean9]

but can they be used over the same notes that are constructed using chords, or are there more notes that you can play over the scales?

[unacarafea]

This is why people don't stick with learning. Teachers with loads of inability to teach.

[unacarafea]

You take one note and go to another? Take 8 notes and do a scale over that? What kind of explanation is that? I hope this guy is not teaching anyone music. Did he know he was going to be doing this or did someone surprise him and he just started trying to act like he made sense?

[kbunks9999]

yeah, once again, i learned NOTHING!, he may be a good player but he sucks as a teacher

[indianman00]

is this guy kidding..someone give him a lesson on how not to scoop....

[saxchic13]

why did he spent so much time talking about scales??? it confused me soo much....

[Zadernet]

I don't even thinks that mitch gets to see the comments.

But just so everyone knows, Most ExpertVillage sax vids are CRAP.

[cptexpando]

Zadernet - AMEN TO THAT!!!!

[cptexpando]

OH!!! Sorry Mitch, but that was an awful video. Did that make sense to anyone? I'm glad i already know what a scale is, or else i'd be thoroughly confused right now. He spent more time talking about how many notes there COULD BE in a scale than about what he was demonstrating. But there is something to be said about improvising around a melody if you're just starting out. It's a great way to go about it.

[partel06]

this might be exactly what I've needed all of these years........

[shayshay845]

i love band i gess im a band weene

[crash1929]

thats actaull pretty cool. a good basic idea.

[xcrezyx]

lol "and there you have it" ...

[ORA123]

Exactly. It isn't that easy. This program is just so wrong in many ways...

[hitmanisback]

it isnt that easy

[partel06]

if it were, i would be better than Charlie parker.....then again so would he

[hitmanisback]

lol right on the button
