@PeyotePaul I'm sorry, but if you can't even spell "excuse" correctly, you should not talk bad about something you don't even know the slightest idea about.

i use rico royals and vandorens haha they are the same except vandorens are harder haha
-
I don't know why you all hate the Ricos, I use the Rico Royals and they sound amazing, way better than the Vandorens. By the way, I use them across four instruments, Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, Alto Sax, and Tenor Sax. Just saying.....

@ReedsRico 1. Kenny G has no "command" of his instrument. Charlie Parker had COMMAND of his instrument. For someone like you who obviously plays saxophone (guessing from your name) I shouldn't have to tell you that. 2. His success is not from him being a good musician or being creative on any level. It's exclusively from non-musical people who think its "relaxing" or "soulful." He's a hack. Now I'm gonna go listen to some Pat Metheny, excue me.

first, take 5 years to learn how to soak your reed. then it will take you another 5 years to learn how to place it on the mouthpiece correctly. man, classicism is a bitch!!!!

I don't really understand why people are disliking this video. Sure, you may not like Kenny G, or Ricco that much, but that doesn't detract from the lesson the video teaches. Also, I'm almost entirely sure that I ate at least two boxes of those "orange box" reeds in my first month of trying to learn alto.

@sr14225 Many people just know us as "orange box" student reeds, but we actually have great professional jazz and classical lines for alto, tenor, bari, and soprano sax that great players like Kenny G use!

@ReedsRico The last part just reinforces his point even more.

@jazzbuckeye You don't have to like Kenny G, but I think he deserves respect for his command of the instrument and success.

@sparten17708 Tone is a very subjective and personal thing. You are absolutely entitled to dislike Kenny G's tone. Out of curiosity, what specifically don't you like about it?
