  • It's a fun playful rag...What is wrong with that? Perhaps you'd prefer Steady Study on the Boogie, Jungle, Balafon, or Hard? All saxophone pieces written by the same well known contemporary composer.

  • Dear Timothy,

    I am Jean Matitia himself writing you to thank you for your interpretation of my Devil's rag and for the promotion you give to this piece!

    Can you write my name on the YouTube video so that people know who is the composer of the tune!My real name is "Christian Lauba"which

    I reserve for more serious music that you also can see on YouTube.Podes responder-me em português que falo perfeitamente!O teu novo amigo,Jean Matitia(Christian Lauba)

  • ASIANS RULE THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!

  • where can i get this sheet music for alto saxophone

  • nice =]

  • It was great!

  • Wonderful playing. Its nice to hear ragtime music played so well. Keep up the good work!

  • Nice! Thought "nice" may be an understatement.

  • its good but i much rather prefer improvised solos

  • cool!!

  • Molto bravo!!!

  • very good

  • How do you make that noise at 40? that's the only thing I didn't understand when I was reading through this piece.

    Luke

  • it's called growling.

    you hum a different pitch at the back of you throat.

    at least that's how i do it.

    i was supprised to hear it too.

    usually its on the tenor and in jazz.

  • Growling's also easy to do if you know how to roll your tongue ie "r"s in spanish.

  • rolling your tongue creates the fluttertongue technique - it sounds similar but is different.

    Tim how old are you? you sound great!

  • It was recorded when I was 20. I am now 24. ;P

  • Awesome stuff man, great tone!

  • LMAO clever one!

  • soo..what's your setup? you did a good job by the way..:-)

  • Eeeeh.. philharmonic? isn't that with VIOLINS? I only see 1 bass, that doesnt make it a philharmony. my Harmony has 6 and is still is a harmony.

    Anyone know the song name?

    Very nice job, I play baritonesax ;) got bored of alto and im never ever turning back :P try it :P

  • Live from Mos Eisley Philharmonic.

  • I'm diggin' your bright tone dude, very bold and full, nice energy, keep it up mate

  • i'm doing my home work .. n listening to this song ..

    can't concentrate .. so good .. great jobs !!

  • AW MAN!! INCREDIBLE...I play the alto sax too, so I know who hard it is to play material like that...AMAZING!!! 5/5

  • I liked it all.

    Except for the very last note.

    lmao

    It was very good.

  • i love this song! u were amazing!

  • wow ur really good

  • you look like the guy from harold and kumar!

  • what is that??

  • A movie.The guy is a pretty good actor, he is in a couple of other good movies.

  • haha this song makes me happy xDD

    its funny xD and he plays so great

  • lol, this song is great, hes plays very bright.

  • amazing

  • These guys were bread as thoroughbreds as young colts. Just because you dont get to choose your path in life, doesnt mean you shouldnt make the best out of it.-bravo!

  • hehe Timothy, you are the most sexiest human ive seen playing the saxophone, i absolute adore asian peoples, and your hair ^^

    You play very good, lively and the end was amazing!!! i keep turn it back.

    By the way remembering the guy saying all asians play without sould or life.. i my opnion you play with sould really..

  • i can never play as 'light' as u!how did u practise to play this lightly?

  • omg. YOU ROCK!!! ahhh. i wish i play as well as you. completely and totally envy you. your sound is very nice in the soft parts, very controlled. nice!

  • gentle guy!

  • Ah, I didn't saw your message.

    I always wondered what the name of the song in Star Wars was.

    FINALLY i found the origin!

  • What is the name of the song?

    Reminds me of "Cantina Band" from Star Wars.

    Is it like a cover of it?

  • Excellent my friend! Expressive, clear, and alive! Perfect, keep going!

  • Did Lauba/Matitia authorize this version of Devil's Rag?

  • i love the dynamic contrast and how well it is exagerrated (sorry if i mispelled that)

  • lol there are a lot of stupid comments here. that was very fine playing. much better than 95% of the crap posted on youtube.

  • I would also like to know who wrote this piece so my director can look it up so we can play it for KMEA.

  • Why are people posting comments saying "Don't move so much while playing"? I'm an all-state tenor sax player and I move when I play.

    The tone seems very suiting for this piece. It's bright to add some humor to it and make it stick out above the other instruments. You have very nice control as well. There are a few tempo problems, but nothing very noticeable to the untrained ear. The only thing I'd suggest is maybe getting your tonguing lighter to make it bounce more.

    Very nice.

  • 孫穎麟是何许人物?

  • Music is a language, knowing how to connect with people and make them happy-that's the most important aspect of music.

  • HAHA this is our marching band show this year! Music, the Universal Language. BLAH

  • You said it Timothy. Also, ignore all the comments - you're very good. You look OK with your movements while playing. Keep moving. Keep playing, and spread the good vibrations.

  • I also play sax, you did a good job !

    And you're hot ;-)

  • hey man,

    do you ever do any jazz improv?

    just curious

  • Not bad~But be careful the high notes!

  • I don't understand classical sax.

  • saxahorn, This isn't classical.

  • Nice circus music. Where are the clowns?

  • hi! does anybody know where can i found devil's rag in mp3?

  • i have a video, and this is what i was like last year.........so, i'm as god as he is....lol

    he's a wonderful player!!!!

  • as a general rule, never try to say you're better than whoever is playing unless you have vids =| Then let others be the judge.

  • haha

    i was kidding

    i'm no where near as good.......well, i have a vid from like, the past year........i've won a few competions, and i'm 13, so............

  • I think hes amazing! Just shows that the people with visious comments are jealous! you just don't practice enough to be that great! Best i have heard on here!

  • OMg i wish i could play as gd as tht. yeh, i do play. and i cant say im bad, but compared to that i am a horror!!;]

  • hi say only tath he plays very good

    i can`t play so

  • rookie

  • - check out arno bornkamps recording of this.. you're way off!

  • dude...you are totally wrong. there is this dude that is chinese. MONSTER tone on alto. AND he is only a freshman. sounds like a combo of brubeck and bird. i'm telling you. don't judge until you've seen it all.

  • Uh, Brubeck is a Pianist Genius

  • yeah... only american people has feelings!lol... as well is president is smart! :D I bet you can't make any better!

  • you motherfucker racism

  • cool

  • he's not asian he's portugese!

  • not all asians are like that...i dont play like that...but he doesnt suck either.

  • i have nothing against asians but...they somehow have no...feeling in the instrument. He may be feeling the music, but there's no soul; no life.

  • >:o HEY!!!!! that hurts :'(

  • HEYYY meanie i play sax and im all-state altooo all the way ! WITH SOULLLLL

  • na, i mean, you can beast classical music and sheet music, but freelance jazz: never seen an asian play that. if you can, but a vid up, send it to me ;), and its not personal! geeze lol, its just my opinion. ;)

  • hmmm u have sort of a point on that freelance jazz, i mean i do it sometimes and its not the best but its okay, but maybe one of the biggest reasons not to many azns can do that is not many azns DO play sax and not many azns are good at the sax

  • ok, i'll accept that. but again, dont get me wrong, i have nothing against the asians, im just speaking out of experience. can i add you? :)

  • lol go ahead ^^

  • asian people...geez, and there haie

  • asian people......geez

  • One word.... WOW!

  • his so hot ><

  • Tempo is fine... the band isnt following hin any. are you listening! They are following the director!

  • Lmao...are u listening or what? there are no problem with his tempo and he's not way off,and moving ur body when playing with any instrument means ur feeling the music ur playing. jeez. bunch of N****

  • Stop being so critical u guys; good tone; some tempo probs, nothing major. good job!

  • Comment removed

  • You have a nice tempo going, but you speed up at the tricky spots the band has a hard time keeping up with you. Besides, I don't think there is any tempo change indicated in the middle section.
