@silomcity Hey! I said he was good (its not really my cup of tea though) - just sounds like he's growling too much but its probably the audio.
Your comment on Parker shows limited music knowledge. Nobody alive today can come anywhere near Bird (on his best stuff - or even off form (Lover man))- and anyone who plays today knows it. Bow your head in shame for even thinking ill of such a GENIUS.
-
yet in your face, so play loud and with good tone. ALWAYS practice like you preform, and you will be on the road to success. =)

keys and try to extend your range as much as possible. dont worry about tone at this part of your warm up, just work on endurance, then play scale intervals (1,3,2,4,3,5,4,6,5,7,6,8,7,9,8
) going up and back down. REMEMBER speed is not important when you start out, as you start to get the finger patterns, you will get faster, this works especially if you have a metronome. Work on your tone as you go on, blow air through your horn, not just your mouthpeice. Remember, a saxophone sound is sweet, -
Practice alot, long tones, scales, and intervals. Long tones should first be letting all your air out on a certain note, with a dynamic at a forte (this will come in handy later on especially if you go on in jazz) then speeding up,(for example, 8 counts per note, then 4, then 2, then 1, then 1/8th, then 1/16th, if you can) then scales, start out slowly. work on chromatic scales, start on your lowest note, and go to your highest chromatically, eventually speeding up. work on your scales in all
-
it sounds like blues scales, chromatic scales, and minor dorian scales.
-
no instrument is easy ;)
-
is it hard to play the sax ? i realy have no clue.
-
I can't believe you would critic his playing as if you were holyer than thou.
As for Charlie Parker, well lets just say , he wished he could have played so clean.

Are you using:
Church modes?
Chordtones?
The so-called beebop scales?
Or something else.
