Solo Performance of Georgia On My Mind on Alto Saxophone by Marty Paoletta.
I Haven't played much for the last fifteen years. Now looking to play again for enjoyment and professionally. My all - time favorite saxophone player is David Sanborn - probably obvious because of the similar way that I approach a song.
I get asked frequently how I am able to get the Sanborn tone. Believe me, I worked on it for months as a young musician. I finally figured out a couple of things, mainly to keep your mouth cavity wide open and let the reed vibrate naturally. The rest is just feel and passion.
My setup is a Selmer Mark VI, A Dukoff P8 mouthpiece, and Vandoren v16 2 1/2 strength reeds.
I am planning to put together some videos giving instruction on how to achieve tone, overblow, and altissimo notes. Stay tuned.
By the way, I am definitely looking to tour again. Any national or international acts that need a sax, keyboard, vocalist musician, I am your man.
