You guys are great! Like the fat sound of the older bass better myself. Played a few in the past so I know they can get heavy and the pitch can be "iffy". Newer horn is doesn't fill the ensemble as much but you sound great either way, would love to here you guys do a jazz/legit recording!
HEY! I WENT TO DISNEY A FEW WEEKS AGO! THEY WEREN'T THERE!!! THIS WOULD HAVE GIVEN TO SO MUCH MORE INSPRIRATION TO PLAY THAN I ALREADY HAVE! NO FAIR!!!
this makes we want to go to disney alittle bit more i'' still never go but now i want to got just a little bit more. If i did go i would just go to hang with these guys all day. LOL
just to clear up any confusion farthest right is a curved saprano next is alto the next is a tenor and to the farthest left is bass. yes there is no baritone sax in this and if ur gonna let a 13 year old outsmart u guys at this sax stuff that is pathetic
Baritone sax sounds sweet. These guy's are talented. I play alto sax. I didn't even know there was such thing as a curved soprano. I thought they were all straight like a claranet
yeah there are only like 7 contra bass made just bass and yeah i play bari, his nectstrap is 30 dollars actually shoulder strap i have one there super nice u can carry it around everday
actually, there are that few SUBcontrabasses (perhaps even less) contrabass saxes are used in many pit bands for musicals, very uncommon to say the least, but certainly production models exist
@buda4u they aren't actually saxophone's unfortunately, they do tend to sound a little bit like a sarrusophone. nonetheless, they're really interesting instruments!
The bass sax doesn't come in two sizes but two different style raps, of the top of the horn. Shorter raps are Benedikt Eppelsheim and Selmer, Longer rap are the Conn, Buescher, Keilwerth and Taiwan bass saxes. There were other American made horns at one time but all had longer raps.
I have a Conn and personally find the longer rap centers the horn more comfortably than the Selmer shorter rap. Horns are the same size basically.
im in the marching band and have played in the rain before. they didn't get damaged at all. dontcha think that pads would fall off from spit aswell as they would water?
Water definitely isn't good for your pads because it makes them expand and fall apart. They're made out of leather; you can imagine what would happen if you left water on a leather couch for hours at a time.
Hey everybody! I saw these guys August 7, 2007. It was probably my favorite moment of the visit to the Magic Kingdom--been there more than five times. My eight year old daughter heard me listening to this video and told me this is the theme to Monsters Inc. (Another prodigy in the family.) I've got some good video which I'll try to post for all you fans. The bass saxophone has been recently replated and it's beautiful. Great band. Friendly players.
I cant believe that guy said it sounded recorded, thats a cool soprano, I play bari and alto mostly but I've played tenor and soprano as well, it'd be cool to play a bass or even a Contra Bass,or Tubax Contrabass.
This music is SWEET!!! But, the sound is badly out of sync. Cool video anyways. I can really appreciate this music because I am a sax player myself. Baritone mainly.
I like how their neck straps are bandannas. Nice cover up.
