Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! The way you explain stuff is like no other. I'm so glad I stumbled onto your lessons. The way you break things down anyone can understand. I really like your laid back style of teaching. Thanks again.

so wonderful.

Just answer me this question please 🙏… If student and professional saxophones sound the same, why we don’t see any musician playing on student saxophones ? I have never seen any professional player using a student saxophone in their concerts or shows.

Apply this to motor cars. My driving skills and motoring needs are the same with my 20 year old Seat or a new £30,000 saloon.

clicks on "I'm a fool to want you"... ..laughs when he hears the soprano sax! (I expected a tenor - nice playing all round, Cameron)

Good info.

😂🎉well said it here 👏🏾

thanks so much for your down to earth tips, so much lacking on other sites. out of curiosity , what is the saxophone you play?

Hi, first of all I wanted to congratulate you on the very interesting videos!! question I'm trying to play only the mouthpiece but I always get the same note and I don't know how to change it even by changing the throat setting, can you help me? Thank you

The first part of your solo reminds me of the intro from California Girls by the Beach Boys. Very nice and melodic!

Great stuff I been contemplating all this for my son. He can make do with his YAS-280

Interesting! I liked the 5 the most, 80% of the time, but the 4.5 was more consistent while still being closer to the sound. 4 even more so. I'm a clarinetist though so my sound ideas are probably different lol

Hi there, awesome video! I am missing your Videos with great advice. It would be great to see you back online!!

Yup. I've played metals from Guy Hawkins, Bergs, Link STM, Beechler Bellite, SR TECH, Runyon, Wolfe Wayne, Meyer, Lakey, Rousseau, on and on for 35 years. And each time I listened to a recording of myself, I got so mad, because my sound was still the same. I finally just settled on a Runyon Quantum and Beechler Bellite 10. Because they were loud, easy to blow, and never tried me out. Blew at least a thousand dollars in all those years. I bought the "deals" mostly from eBay. Never spent more than $129 on a mouthpiece. I should've listened to Don Menza.

great

Love this exercise as a bari sax player, specifically to have a framework for playing w friends when theyre improvizing. Thanks!

These are amazing exercises, I think ile try the easier one first, Thanks 😊

Sounds fantastic! I am a guitar player, but can learn a lot from this, I hope. 😊 Thank you!!

I've been trying to reach Cameron by email or any other means....but it seems like he's dropped off of public view-- no current posts or current connections to his web site are working. Looking for an update if possible...

Thanks for reissuing your recording! Have subscribed. Good stuff! Thx

what are the some of the most common tunes?

thank you this is exactly what i needed !!!

Best candid advice I've heard in a long time, you have a new subscriber. cheers

The is well detailed and easy to understand

I've listened to both the curved and straight neck C-Melody Saxs (Can I call it a Contralto Sax?) and like the straight neck sound better. More alto-y, but in a pleasant contralto register. Like Dianne Reeves, Diana Krall, Karen Carpenter. Very nice.

Facts because I play a John Packer Tenor (I know cheap horn but I'm broke) but I play professionally so I figured I'd try a YTS 62 iii maaaann the difference was night and day. It was crazy how much better the 62 played and more free blowing paired with my STM 7*.

Good thing this dude isn’t into guitars. Those people are crazy……

Great Thanks

Thank you. 🙏🏻

Thanks so much sir

You have some excellent advice. I currently play a John Packer Alto that I bought for 200 bucks. It's a beast so I am considering upgrading. After watching this video no longer an intermediate horn or a shiny new one either. Thank you

Definitely a save. Thanks for all these Videos. I miss your videos. I hope everything is alright.

Best (used) saxophones for begginers that offer excellent construction, ergonomics. intonation and value for money are ; 1. Yamaha 275 2. Jupiter 787/789

Just bought one of these, not sure what condition it will be in, but its fun to see so many conn c melody saxes on youtube.

Desconcierta bastante por q no podes hubicarlo ni en el registro de tenor ni del alto

From a personal standpoint, this particular C Melody Saxophone would be the actual Contralto Female Voice type. Obviously the Alto is supposed to be technically, and the Mezzo-Soprano Sax is the Mezzo-Soprano Female Voice equivalent. For me I guess the Alto Sax is just a RICH, Dark, Mezzo-Soprano instrument and Voice type, while the C Melody Sax is the actual equivalent to the Contralto Female Voice. Substituting the "C" Melody as "Contralto Melody" You play Awesome!! Great Video👍🏾👍🏾

Hi there, your advice is so valuable. I am missing your honest and useful videos. Did you have an important reason to stop posting content?

Thoughts on the Jean Paul begginer alto Sax and Sakkusu beginner Alto Sax? Ive been saving up to buy one of them (complete beginner, i r never seen one in real life, i dont think ive seen anyone from my state playing the saxophone, I live in a small state in India)

Thanks for this video. I see that you stopped uploading, I want to encourage you to continue. It's hard to acknowledge that, but we have to practice routinely. I'm coming back after a long break and your videos help me get in the right mental state. Unfortunately it's hard to practice the saxophone before/after work because it will disturb the neighbors (especially sound work)

Nice. Blow Bird.

Thanks for the great advice. I hope to see more of your videos soon. I’ve scheduled a lesson with a teacher based on the direction of this video.

Thanks , great video.

Sounds like a sax being played on an old 40's film. Its cool.

Thank you ! Love your honest report as I’m in the market to go from hiring a sax to purchasing one, but a Tenor not an Alto, love the full bodied sound of a Tenor Sax. 👍

Yesss!

Or, there's the other way...get the Yamaha 480 along with a Custom neck (V1, G1, C1, whatever one's preference) and you end up with a better sounding instrument than the 62 for less money, imho. Unfortunately Custom necks won't fit the 280.

This video is the best I've found on how to improvise over rhythm changes. Great useful info and sick demo!
