  • Im in 11th grade and im going to be playing this on Bari for solo ensomble... i dont think the judge will go after that im playing an alto pice on bari, what do you think?

  • @lawlpwnd350 Hi. I think there are many pieces that are written for baritone that you could play. The Glazounov is very specifically written for alto saxophone, and in my opinion, is really not suitable to be played on baritone sax!

  • I have a meyer m5 for jazz and am looking to get a classical mpc, would a A28 be good to get, or i know selmer c is good, or something else?

  • @FantomOfFear Hi. there is a lot of choice these days. Just try several mouthpieces that work well for you and suit you soundwise.

    all the best

    Andreas

  • what for saxophone has you?

  • At this performance I used;

    A Yanagisawa 991 (about 8 or 9 years old)

    Vandoren A28 mouthpiece, no.3 Vandoren reeds.

    Optimum ligature, with the vertical line shaped plate.

  • Great Performance :) Our AS Music teacher at college showed us some sax concertos as examples and I particularly enjoyed this one. In the classical world, the Saxophone is a bit like the Double Bass as in that there are some absolutely beautiful concertos and solos written for it but only the players of the instruments seem to know them. But well done on a great performance :)

  • I was originally a pianist, turned saxohponist in 5th grade, turned oboist in 6th grade and learned the clarinet in the 8th grade. I love this genius autumnal work and in my compositions I will do everything in my power to bring classical music and the saxohpone back to light, even if it is the last thing I do.

  • Jody Jazz DVNY is a jazz mouthpiece but it has the darkest, warmest tone I've ever heard.

  • @ThePooponthelawn Hey, you ever heard of the Vandoren tl4 optimum mouthpeice??......that's the one i play on, nd it sounds good....thing is, i heard there's a tl5 mouthpeice, but i've never seen it.

  • @coolthing21 I'm petty sure that the AL4 is more open

  • @ThePooponthelawn What is the different between the Vandoren Optimum Al3 and Al4?

  • @avanzoelen Um, I disagree. After Talking with two great professors from great big 12 universities, they both told me that I should play it on bari for a concerto competition I entered. Which I won. It's never been done professionally, and I plan to be among the first.

  • omg, this music is fucking amazing!!! i know that it was composed in 1936 (just when was starting the civil war in my country). simply amazing!

  • @avanzoelen ya definately not for bari

  • I'm working on this piece and it is impossible! I only have a month and a half to learn it before a major audition. My immediate respect goes to anyone who can play this well.
