KNOWING your Major Scales is a BIG HELPING FACTOR! I remember when I Made It to College! The only scales I knew were C Maj and Bb Maj! It was kinda embarrassing but Now I KNOW & CAN PLAY ALL MY SCALES! Thank God 🙏 🎷 😇
Yeah, knowing your scales makes EVERYTHING easier when it comes to theory and playing songs. Yeah, as an alto player, I've always been more on the sharp side of the circle of 5ths.
Has a student who is try to learn and make jazz solos this is crazy help like you get a car I want to buy a 170k car and I got 50k from working getting help from other and you come over and tell me I been doing it wrong my hole life and told me how to make money and get into life and give me 100k and let me do all the work all the work I mean by practice to get the final 20k I need for my car so thanks man much love 100% sun ❤❤❤❤❤
Glad I could help you get the car you've always wanted 😁😁😁😁 I've done longer versions of this concept on my RU-vid channel, and go way indepth in my Sax School if you want some step by step guidance.
if you’re playing on a classical sax mouthpiece it might be stopping you from getting that sound. play more relaxed and open than classical too, that helps get you a fatter sound
Hi - love your channel. Do you find it's easier (especially for rank beginner's like me) to stay in the pentatonic, or should I practice with the entire scale? Thanks.
I have been playing for several years - I would recommend to start off with only a few notes, which is what the pentatonic is. After you feel confident on pentatonic, you could switch to longer scales and such.
Hey Stephen, I start students off with the BLUES SCALE. It is a great starting point because it sounds like a musical idea. It is the same thing as the minor pentatonic scale, except it has the b5 which makes everything sound better. If you are learning from scratch (and you are a sax player) you should take a look at my Sax School. You'll have a clear step by step pathway to learn how to improv.
