Blues on Bari Sax

Here is some blues on my trusty old bari sax. She's ugly but gets the job done. I don't play much bari but I've got some commitments in the next couple months so I figured I should start spending some time on the horn. Eventually I'll spend some time practicing and get a good video up.....enjoy!

Nothing better than a good 'ol bari sax. I've been playing since the seventh grade.

:D

Much love, my friend!

@abracasaxophone you can use rico reeds, i mean they're terrible and break way more often then they should (9 years of experience) but they make it easier to whail with a barry and the rico royals make for a smoother azz sound than a Vandoren. also vandorens take a while to get used to and in a good playable area. just food for thought.

realizing the background its kind of crime-scene-rhythm....

[abracasaxophone]

That was really good :D

@AlainahB Get a neotech neckstrap or harness, you switching from a different sax or...? Use Vandoren reeds, never Rico...also, embouchure can make a big difference when you're playing. One last thing, bari sax is a monster, takes a lot of breath, but it's worth it xD my favorite instrument, looking to get my own soon, using the school's atm.

I wish they would have kept old bari designs and only updated keywork. You have the best bari sound I've heard.

Great stuff!

@AlainahB dont use the cheap neckstrap they give you, but a wider one, or better yet, a harness, trust me these things are heavy on your neck
