Take 5 - Play Along (Bb, Eb and C)

[chickensouplover516]

Idk why but I just thought this would make awesome music for a level of the next Kirby game

[alalange]

what is bpm?!?

[alalange]

@alalange

ha ha ha nvm I found it it was on top of the sheet music bpm =180

[jdoglumpybutt13]

@alalange bpm stands for the beats per minute. It sets the tempo for a musical composition.



[alalange]

@jdoglumpybutt13

ha ha ha I know that I guess I should of reworded my question. I meant to ask what the bpm for the song is, but I figured it out it says it in the beginning of the video.

[Andrew777801]

can you post a version of this but to 50% speed? thanks.

[jsacore]

YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU RIGHT NOW FOR POSTING THE SHEET MUSIC FOR BFLAT TENOR!

[llllJAUZllll]

Great video! Thanks a lot for sharing the sheet music. I had been looking for it for a long time! See you!

[15kewlguy]

Thank you!!!! i will practice this song on my tenor :D

[ZeldainPark]

Oh, how I miss the days when everything was in the key of F

[SMJMoloney]

Thanks for this, I really appreciate the upload. I badly needed it transposed for Bb Tenor

[1S1Kdust43]

@SMJMoloney In the description there is a b flat part

[SMJMoloney]

@1S1Kdust43

I knew that, thanks for the concern though.

[mic270469]

is it MIDI file?

[BillyTheSaxKid16]

Thankyou so much for the alto sax link. This is my favourite jazz song, and I've looked for the sheet music for months! :)

[johnnydiggle]

Disgusting MIDI sounds, get HALion one!!

[Alpha7xxx]

I came all over the place when I heard that sweet synth play along! Damn I made a mess!

[christopherlewis14y]

Great song just really repedative in the middle

[Scientist9221]

its not for Bb, its for C

[DeathHoldGrip]

THANK YOU SIR

[spiritreapr]

EGAD thats hard

[Coronas135]

Where's the bridge in the solo section?

[Juicefani11]

Emm... This has a tenor sax. Brubeck Quartet had Alto sax.

[MrPlayAlong]

@Juicefani11 Keen powers of observation. If you checked the description you would've found the link to the alto sax part.

[Cubroncs03]

@MrPlayAlong Is there a corresponding vid to the alto part?

[MrTamaguy]

@Juicefani11 it is a computer, dumbass.

[Juicefani11]

@MrTamaguy Why did you say that? Like i didn't know it, lol.. XD

[ToaKopaka44]

@Juicefani11  It's because Tenor Sax is just better!

[TheDoudidou]

You just used Impro-visor

[MrPlayAlong]

@TheDoudidou I actually use Sibelius 5 for all my composing, arranging and play-alongs.

[FertileKnave]

aaahhhhh fuck sibelius. i use it for music a level at school, possibly the most frustrationg piece of software EVAAAA

[ilovfob]

I have a sax quintet, and would like to arrange this into a piece that we could play. We have no drummer, but we have a pretty good grove coming along. The quintet consists of 2 altos, 2 tenors and a baritone. Considering this, it would make sense to put the bass line for the bari, the melody for lead alto, and harmony for the 2nd alto. Would it make sense to put the piano line for the tenors, or should I just stick to more harmony? The piano line is what would set the groove though.... Help? =)

[holymadgod]

I transcribed this a few years ago

[MusicShiv]

@MrPlayAlong, do you think you could provide with the chords to the second part of the chorus? After the whole Fm/Cm bit. If you could, that would be so awesome. Thanks again for a wonderful transcription.

[MrPlayAlong]

@MusicShiv Just looking at it quickly now it looks like (in the key of C): Cb, Abm6, Bbm7, Ebm7, Abm7, Db7 & Gb7. All repeated with each change on the start and 4th beat of the bar. Hopefully that will make more sense when you write it on your part. If not feel free to send me a message.

[MusicShiv]

@MrPlayAlong, Yeah, I totally understand and thanks a ton. I'm playing tenor in a quintet and we're just bouncing around ideas with tunes like this. Thanks again!

[chino15siu]

ahh this was such a great help , thank you sooooo much

[nobpra]

what program you use to open this midi

[MrPlayAlong]

This isn't a midi that I've just downloaded. I transcribed this myself and use sibelius 5.

[steven20600]

thank u thank u i have been looking for a free copy of this song on alto for a long time and i greatly thank u for finally giving it to me

[TheSentinals101]

Gah this song is so fun to play, yet so easy :)

[MizanRidz]

Thankz for the upload

[PSP3000user]

wtf its not suposed to repeat that much wtf?

[TheSentinals101]

@PSP3000user Yes it is, there is just no main part written

[Stuboi0]

Take 5 - played 5:4 not 3:4

[MrPlayAlong]

Hence the time signature. It's a 5, but it does look like a 3 a little. But if you count the beats you'll see.

[peetfreak]

sounds like an old donkey kong version or something like that :D

[macgregorcd]

Just out of curiosity, why is the bass playing below its range? The lowest note it can play without loosening the strings is E1 and according to this it plays a Db1 (the bass sounds an octave lower than it is written). Also, go alto sax! I don't play tenor.

[MrPlayAlong]

The bass is written below its range for the play along, I wanted the bass to go down with the piano rather then up, against it. If you ever want to play it on bass take them up the octave.

[MrReggaery]

hi. what is the key signature for the tenor sax part. this guitarist at school keeps bugging to to learn it!!!

thanks!!! this is amazing!!!

[MrPlayAlong]

Hey, the tenor sax is in F minor. Sheet music for C, Bb & Eb instruments is in the description. Thanks :)

[MrReggaery]

would that mean that it has A flat, B flat, E flat and D flat?

[MrPlayAlong]

Yeah, but we name them in order from left to right so it would be Bb, Eb, Ab & Db.

[Knoblauchsuppe]

Wow, thanks!

I've been searching after one like that! Great! :)

[pipurrcat]

thanks for posting, im going to make a video of all the parts!!

and maybe post it as a response once recorded??

[lebltherebel226]

Already learned the piano part and can't start to wait playing this on my Tenor. Thanks man :D

[CloudsThunder22]

:) good job.

[MrPlayAlong]

Thanks :)

[Psp1000Fanboy]

Whats with the blank lines? are those just rests?

[MrPlayAlong]

What black lines? If you are talking about the slashes then thats the solo section.

[Psp1000Fanboy]

Oh then why isnt a solo written there?

[MrPlayAlong]

Because that would take away all the fun! Its improvised!  Play around using the notes in the blues scale thats written at the start of the solo section.

[Psp1000Fanboy]

K Thx

[Gwyndion500]

are the notes for tenor the same on alto because i have to do part of this song for a solo for my marching band but its written in the music as if it were for a middle schooler(easy/boring) so i wanted another way t play it

[MrPlayAlong]

I have included the music for instruments in the keys of Bb, Eb and C in the description. Since alto is in Eb that would be the music your should use. But this music may not be in the same key that your marching band plays it in, so it may be of little use to you. But, none the less, feel free to jam with this video to get a feel for the song.

Good luck :-)

[Gwyndion500]

lol sorry i didnt check there... thanks

[ezara]

not that i can think of at the mo but keep putting stuff for tenor sax up theres never enought of it! :)

[MrPlayAlong]

sure thing! Feel free to comment if you get any suggestions :-)

[ezara]

This is great thanks for sharing :)

[MrPlayAlong]

Thanks :-) Im glad to know that people are using this. Got any ideas for my next play along?
