Classical tenor - some say the forgotten race, others say the race never remembered in the first place. Either way, here I dip my toes into the mysterious scarce world of classical tenor. Now the gears are turning...
Thank you David Song for the lesson!!! Yes sir!

Always a good thing to learn more styles and you got a handle on it quick! Great job Nathan, but also GREAT job to David!

Nathan studied classical music for a while, just predominantly, if not exclusively, alto

You gotta love the tenor sax. A lot of songs I’ve gotten in band are kind of basic bass line and all that, but every once in a while, you get the song every tenor saxophonist dreams of… one where you get some baseline, counter-melody, AND melody in. It really is one of the best feelings I’ve experienced.

Join the jazz band tenor is much more appreciated

@goodsprings5271 2 года назад

i dont see why people dont do jazz and classical, both are absolutely fire

@jobless2852 2 года назад

Our entire jazz band does both LOL

@MrJdsenior Год назад

Even many of the famous rockers over the time have been classically trained. IIRC Elton John was Royal Academy of Music as just one rather well known example. Hopefully I remembered that correctly.

@voidedspace5510 Год назад

Work to reward ratio for each is different. You have to play a LOT of saxophone to be decent at both. Playing lots of jazz does start to affect your playing habits in the classical world

Jazz is better

@willidoes6680 Год назад

We’re in the same boat @antoniourias595 I just got my own tenor (was renting) and I’m enjoying the experience so much, it’s an interesting switch from playing trumpet, trombone, and tuba🤣

@brianclausen2344 2 года назад

Excellent episode of Saologic! I loved the way a jazz tenor differs from the Yamaha Classically styled tenor. David had great hints on keeping the air warm and fast for those low notes. You can tell the difference right away when you applied that to your horn. After about five years away from my alto, it took me a good 3-4 months before my centered focused tone came back, but you started getting it by the end of the episode! Great channel, great content and really informative on how you can make any sax sound Classical or Jazzer!

Fun hang! It still blows me away that Ken Beeson made this horn and such a trip to see it with the key clamps. I bought my first set of clamps from him in about 1983 - ouch, all of a sudden I feel really old….

@joshuamayo5282 2 года назад

both are really interesting. i personally have been focusing on jazz for alto and concert/classical for bari.

@goodsprings5271 2 года назад

"I'm going to learn to play classical tenor!" Half the lesson: "These are my preferences."

@brandonpeterson2794 2 года назад

Just today I got my tenor sax, I’ve been playing alto for 5 years but it seems like way more. Tenor is so fun and would recommend to anyone on the fence. This video really helped me to say the least.

Classical tenor is the most underrated saxophone setting. Get listening to James Houlik. Favorite pieces: The Upward Stream - Peck, Pitt County Excursions - Duckworth, Concerto for Tenor - Ewazen, Fantasia - Villa Lobos.

I know the T20s are very popular but I prefer the S90. I also recommend you check out v12s over the v21s. I play on v12s for classical sop, alto and tenor and love them!

Have you ever tried playing on a 10’s-60’s Buescher saxophone? They’re such a unique sounding saxophone and I play on the Aristocrat. Would highly recommend.

@pgroove163 2 года назад

They're incredible instruments

@Greenlit 2 года назад

Never played anything like them before.

@Ticatsfanx351 2 года назад

Got one myself. A big B from 1942 I love it. Moved to a 6 for a more reliable axe, but truth be told the tone of the buescher remains unconquered!

@channingshows6634 2 года назад

I love my bueschers! Especially from really late 20’s to 50, it’s something totally unique of themselves and I love them. I personally have a 1932 new aristocrat alto, 1936 aristocrat bari, and 1948 aristocrat tenor

@brianmatthews232 2 года назад

Might be wise to place mouthpiece on and off the neck with the neck off of the sax, or carefully hold the neck so as not to apply up or downward force to the neck. Its easy to damage the neck and or socket, known as neck pull-down. My used YTS62 had it when I bought it, and I had to replace the neck socket and refit the neck. Would be expensive if you had to pay for it to be done. if you gently apply force to the neck with it tightened, if it moves vertically you have an issue already. Over-tightening the neck clamp screw to compensate, can lead to it breaking, leaving the thread in the socket. Gotta cherish those lovely saxes. love the videos :-)

@Baribrotzer 2 года назад

From what I understand, the original Adolphe Sax horns had a narrower bore, and that made them more suitable for classical playing. At least the recordings I've heard on RU-vid suggest that: Trying for an even, super-controlled classical tone on a modern sax sounds to me like trying to drive a 1,000 hp. hot rod on the highway - it's always trying to get away from you, and I can hear the effort. Whereas an Adolphe Sax horn sounds a bit like an Cor Anglais or a bassoon, that kind of playing seems to come naturally to it, and (to continue the analogy), it's like a jeep on dirt roads, or a taxicab on city streets or a sports car on mountain highways - suited to the terrain.

I am the one who created that meme about Batman and Robin. I think I need a new mouthpiece,SLAP!! Longtones!!!! I made that for sax on the web in 2007....

@hydrodragonn7385 2 года назад

I’m surprised how much of a difference the horn made in his tone, I always had the misconception it was literally all embouchre and mouthpiece (I know it’s mostly that but whatever)

Yea, that’s Stusek alright 😂 He proctored my jury one semester. I put down that I practiced ~10hrs/week on average. He looks at me and says, “you’ll never be successful if that’s all you practice!” He was also very relieved when I no longer needed him to adjudicate my comp exam, as he had a rather busy schedule and simply didn’t want to spend the extra time doing anything else Dude’s hilarious lmao
