I'm glad to see Baptiste Herbin is famous outside France 🙂. I had the chance to gig with him on 'Blues for Alice' and it was really great (even if I did not have his practicing level 😅). Great job of transcribing this lick 👍
As a non-sax player, it just sounds like he’s improvising a solo, whereas the mariokart lick sounds like it’s planned and written as part of the song. He Mario kart composer is a genius.
@whoiscoltranewhyishechanging Mabye some of it was improv and some was planned. Like knowing certain patterns on your horn and knowing how to mix them with other patterns to create a crazy sounding lick
I love the content, super underrated, I have been playing for almost a year and a half, just joined the orchestra and its hard, but I keep fighting because people like you inspire me so much, keep up the work man! Your the best!
I'm super glad you've done these videos on Baptiste because you've really turned me onto him! Always nice to be alerted to players that I might not have found otherwise!
Your playing is legit, but you also have such a clear way of explaining things that I really like. Whenever I see you talking about a practice method or why a certain concept is important I always find myself going "YES! THIS GUY gets it!" Thanks for the great content!
muy chulo! or Very coool Nathan. I'd like to buy a copy of the transcript. I love that descending whole tone pattern; one of the most interesting patterns and should be an essential part of our jazz vocabulary.
Bassist here as well, and I love how he just goes in depth about the intervals and their purpose. Makes me feel more confident about my soloing and what makes an important bassline.
Thanks for your videos! I appreciate your goofball sense of humor and respect the talent you’ve taken loads of time to cultivate! And thanks for turning me on to Baptiste Herbin! I’m just diving in to explore more alto sax players (Art Pepper was added earlier this year). Thanks for the content! I’ve subbed. Looking forward to picking up to practice tips and watch your progress.
This year back in April my marching band was supposed to go to France for our bi-yearly trip and our jazz band (me included) and we were scheduled to play at a jazz club in Paris. Baptiste Herbin was supposed to play with us too. It would have been a great experience but unfortunately it didn't come to be because of obvious reasons. Hopefully in the future I will be able to meet with him!
I need that poster!!!! Also I just want you to know that you’ve really inspired me to step up my saxophone game. I am a sophomore in high school and I’m looking to go into music, similar to what you do. I’m really excited. I really just love the language of jazz and I want it to be apart of my life forever. Anyway thanks for the awesome vids. Also I need that poster😂
When he got to 120 bpm and made all the faces and kept starting and stopping I felt that in my soul because I do the same exact thing. Not with music like this, but still difficult for me
My main doubt is How can you transcribe without your instrument? For me is impossible, I need to have the instrument while I am transcribing. Congratulations for the video and for the cahnnel. Big fan from Spain!!
What’s the song at 7:56 and also there was a flute and sax slow jazz I think I heard this whenever the nurses put on jazz before I got my wisdom teeth removed i don’t remember what it was called do you know anywhere I can start researching?
