Part 1- Phil plays Tableaux de Provence mvt.1,2,3 for Jean Marie Londeix Master Class.

Phil plays Tableaux de Provence mvt.1,2,3 for a Master Class held by Jean Marie Londeix at Lawrence University on Sept.22, 2009. This shares with the saxophone community the insight that the great saxophonist and educator Jean Marie Londeix has on the world of music. Professor Londeix's long career includes acting as Professor of Saxophone at the Bordeaux Conservatory and Dijon conservatory, performing in concert countless times, and making definitive recordings of some of the saxophone's finest literature. Jean Marie Londeix premiered Tableau de Provence in the late 1950's, and personally knew Paule Maurice. As with so much else in the classical saxophone genre, he is unequaled in his knowledge and experience. He premiered the Dubois concerto; the Denisov Sonate, the Murgier Concerto; Tableaux de Provence; Noda Improvisations; and amazingly to me performed "Scaramouche" with Darius Milhaud conducting. Due to Youtube time restrictions, this video is posted in 2 parts. The Londeix biography and Private Collections CD set is available at Amazon and I and highly recommend both as being essential to the classical saxophonist.

Amazing tone :D I can only dream of being this awesome! I recorded most of this piece for my allstate tryout last year.. (just curious) I saw from a previous post that you have a winslow as a part of your set up, when did you acquire it? are they even being made now lol

[saxophoney]

Thank you so much. Yes, I have an alto Winslow and a tenor Winslow and got mine within three weeks of ordering. These great ligratures are made right in my state by hand in a small shop by the Winslow brothers. You call the phone number which you can easily find on the web by googling and you'll speak directly with them (they will answer the phone themselves). They were only about $70 a piece and I was stunned at the difference it made compared to my rovner. It's worth the phone call.

@saxophoney Hey thanks for the information! :D I ordered from them after seeing oyur comment, and the ligature came today! I tried it and it was great! But one slight change was their price, they are now selling them for $98 well, thanks again :)

[saxophoney]

Ouch. That is a bit of price inflation. They are great, though. When you look at it, you can see that it's quite the perfect design and the difference in performance in quite noticable. Good luck!

[saxophoney]

Sorry but I have no tricks. Practice is all. Thanks for listening.
