Sigurd Rascher in Buescher Promotional Ad (1/3)

Is he playing a Buescher true-tone?

Rascher explaining the sax is like..like..um..well it's like God explaining how to make a universe

Corina!

What a beast Rascher was. The overtones were just legendary

It is quite amazing to see the great man in action. My students are amazed!! (So am I). I have an old vinyl of him playing and I think I might see if I can transfer it to mp3 and make a slideshow backing and post it.

That is the greatest video on Youtube I have ever seen.

[disecheis]

Fantastic!!!! Thank you a lot for this video

[berkelator]

Thank you so much for this invaluable piece of history and excellent teaching tool. I love the random comment about the light too at 5:13. And then Rascher sounds strangely annoyed - "fine!' Gold

[LLover3]

Good video of the basics of playing. Thanks.

[ratiocinativeness]

Thanks for posting! : )

I had been wanting to see something like this for quite some time. Watching him play that keyless saxophone like that absolutely made my day, too.

[dwshell]

This made my day! I was just thinking of how nice it would be to have a film of Mr. Rascher. He has an amazing control of harmonics.

[saxophoney]

Brilliant! Who would have ever thought that they would see film of Sigurd Rascher playing and talking. Thanks much!

Many thanks for this valuable piece of history and wonderful advice. I will be sharing this with all my students.
