Dr Timothy McAllister Vibrato Lesson

[CentralMana]

I notice your vibrato has no real "tempo" though. It's just vibrating fast. Well i don't know, i learned that to make it more effective, you can do vibrato in eighth notes, triplets, and so on. Well that's the way i see it.

[Mauriciovideomaker]

sounds like a cello...nice but funny...

[treehumprr]

@Mauriciovideomaker saxes were made to sound like cellos

[iliveonthedge]

the rico royal reserve classic reeds are great for my. i really like them

[blummy24x7]

Tim is a fantastic player, and the Rico upper level reeds are the highest quality.

[mrIlikepie8888]

its true that rico is not that good. however, i like his sound

[shysadly9]

Haha I did the solo he played in the beginning Fantasia and got a 95 on it that was great and I like how he does vibrato.

[ap1027]

why does he move his left hand so much? terrible technique.

[GOLDMATT123]

@ap1027 and yet hes still better then you

[ap1027]

@GOLDMATT123 I don't believe I ever said he wasn't better than me...

[templesaxman]

@ap1027 it's called not playing like a bitch

[ap1027]

@templesaxman Your intellectual response astounds me

[jdragon1012]

dude the backround is the same as the backround in the geico commercials

[Treflex]

sounds like a violin! :D

[Henslinatr]

His playing sounds like a cello!

[drizzt0909]

van dorens are so much better. rico's are too stiff. they limit my range, especially on the lower notes for my tenor

[AaFeshhB]

rico reeds suck ..

[tdubwv13]

[2000musicman]

what type of mouthpiece and reed are you using?

[Actar411]

Oh, I saw him live at the Sax symposium.

[jazzgod101]

McAllister is amazing. I'm a student at the Crane School of Music and he taught there up until a few years ago. Though I never had the pleasure of being under his tutelage, I hear great stories of him from the older students.

[aallisoncryan]

I love his sound. It's great... I just wish I could understand what he's saying with the jaw thing. Like, are you supposed to move it? Because I don't notice him moving his jaw... I'm confused

[Platypustastic]

It's not a big movement. You can't really see someone moving their mouth when they do it--it's just like you're saying "yahyahyahyah". Little jaw movements do it, at least for me.

[sopranosaxophonist]

Reply@aallisoncryan

You can do it only with your mpc in front of a mirror to see how your jaw move

[snowypetrel]

Beautiful classical tone, like a cello, rich and gorgeous. Jazz tones can get so brash but classical tone playing jazz is best.

[musicilove2]

I likah this!!!

[dvnstvn9]

kinda sounding like a well played cello

[dvnstvn9]

wow, now thats how the sax should sound

[AHGastler]

He's playing the Villa-Lobos Fantasia at the beginning - great piece. I think it sound better on tenor than soprano. And yeah, this guy rules.

[Saxopwnerer]

This guy is one of the best classical saxophonists in the world. And he is a very nice guy!

[USCSAX90]

He is amazing.
