Alicia Keys: Like You'll Never See Me Again on Alto Sax

My version put together in a couple of hours based on Alicia's version of this song.

A youtube buddy asked me for some tips on playing this song, so this one's for you.

This is played on a Yamaha 62 with a Yanagisawa metal mouthpiece.
Enjoy.

good job dude.

Just wondering, does the tone of your sax depend mostly on the mouthpiece? Cause im trying to get to sound like yours.

Mouthpiece then sax body.

If you don't mind can you tell me what notes are invovled at 3:27, I really wanna steal that lick and put it in another key for my song, If you would please

[wanglemusic]

Hey thanks for listening. It's not that I don't want to tell you. I think it's a good exercise to try and transcribe them yourself. A part of becoming a good musician is to be able to listen and know what someone else is playing. Good luck and if you get too stuck, let me know.

I really like the way how you did this how long have you been playing the sax and how did you come up with the notes for it.Amazing i want to do that someday

Been playing on and off for a decade now. I came up with the notes by listening to the original Keys version and played the similar notes on the sax. I hope you the best in your endeavors and keep the music alive!

Whoever gave this guy less than 5 stars is an asshole!

[PrimeDefection]

The tone he makes a 0:47 is just amazing it's just like he's speaking the emotion right out of the sax.

Think it was well played too, it was swinging, bet still not convinced i will play metal moutpiece - may bee one day. My teacher would have commented those cheeks for Ebuchure sake but newer mind if it works for you !

[Robertassax]

Hei!!! very nice play ! Meybe it would be possible to get the notes m? r.pranevicius@yahoo.com Big Thanks !

@RedRobin2010 Mouthpiece, saxophone itself. It mostly depends on how you play. Your embouchure mostly determines how you sound.

Black Jesus.

I love how he bends the note at 1:58!

[gabumonfanclubx]

that was great, most people can't play saxophone dynamics well but you did. 5/5

[seymour5575]

are you using a yas 23 or 62?

[trimmy1961]
