"If you give it the support, you're going to get the tone". I'm going to have this crocheted on a pillow to keep in my practice room.

@noneoftheabove2741 2 года назад

this helped me a lot! i've been playing bari for almost a year, switching from clarinet. this really helped me find my sound, so it doesn't sound faded whenever i play. thank you so much!

@TrashCanBoiBoi Год назад

I switched from clarinet to alto to bari, I used the school's clarinet and I'm currently using the school's bari, I loved clarinet I miss it at times lol

@williammurray1620 Год назад

Started on Clarinet back in the 4th grade. Played that for 4 years. Mixed in Bass Clarinet, then Tenor then settled on Baritone Sax in 8th Grade only and never looked back.

I’m also switching from playing clairinet for 7 years to playing bari.

Same

I usually play Alto sax, but when my school started a Jazz Band, I really wanted to switch to Bari. It was very difficult for me to get started on bari (and I'm a small person which doesn't really help) but then I watched this video and it became much easier for me. Thank you so much!!

i usually play my tenor and am switching to bari for jazz

@ezekielmadrigal6232 Год назад

I switched from five years in alto to Bari and I feel like I'm better in bari

@hotdogmanwithhotdoghands Год назад

thank you! i’m planning on switching to bari sax after playing alto for a year because the current bari sax player in my school band is leaving, and this really helps me understand what i’m getting myself into. i’m so excited to play it!!

@captain_commenter3126 Год назад

Thanks for this! 7th grader, and this was very helpful to prepare me for the coming year, where I’ll be learning to play it.

I’m transitioning from Alto to Bari and it’s been tough partly to do with the physical set up - I’ve now got a Vandoren harness which has made a big difference. It’s taken months to work out reed strength too (using mp Yamaha 5) I’ve settled on Legeres 2.5 Am cut.

@MiaTedrick 8 месяцев назад

Thank you 🙏 I am a flute player, my band teacher just threw me on bari sax for our Christmas concert in 16 days 😅

You can do it!

Ive learned that the C* selmer is pretty much the perfect all around mouth piece for every style, not saying its the BEST for every style, just that is works well for every style

@blu3620 2 года назад

I wanna play a baritone saxophone

@onlyseth2745 2 года назад

its so fun to play

@pablito5927 2 года назад

Same only my neighbours aren't too happy about it, mine is really loud, probably has to do with the mouthpiece I'm using

@toast7150 2 года назад

it’s a fun instrument

@toast7150 2 года назад

you actually could, if you’re in band or already play an instrument you can probably try it out.

@meisterm5562 Год назад

I just got mine from my band class. I used to be an alto

@THEceodrii Год назад

im about to start playing bari after transitioning from flute & this is going to help !

@Cap10Goff 5 месяцев назад

Lucky you already have the air

@johan0234523 Год назад

I switched from baritone to clarinet (no, not the other way around), and I can tell you that's quite a transition as well! ;-) One thing I struggled with in the beginning is how little air (not support, but air flow) the clarinet takes, compared to a bari sax. I really had to unlearn my breathing habits. In the meantime I picked up the baritone again though.

@snaeb-ps3bd 2 месяца назад

I switched from clarinet to baritone and I can imagine how hard it would be the other way around

@tvdv3754 9 месяцев назад

Top tip: "Make sure you take a BIG GULP of air in!!". Love this guy 😂And as a bari sax player, I confirm.

@Purpledragon17 3 месяца назад

As another bar I sax play I most definitely agree

@cptsingsong Год назад

golly goodness, thanks a lot, if it weren't for you, i wouldn't be on the spot

@masterrevenant5244 Год назад

When u said how to transition from alto or tenor to baritone sax and I was just like I went from clarinet to it

@FrogwithdaButter 11 месяцев назад

What song does he play at the beginning

@sajidreshamwala5570 Месяц назад

Thanks for this share! Q: When playing low notes like the low b flat, are you practicing playing legato e.g. without tonguing the start of the note? Thanks for reading my q!

@lesterwyoung 7 месяцев назад

Selmer mouthpiece by far the nicer to my ears.

@BenG-vf7et 5 месяцев назад

What ear plugs do you use?

@Caesar-ik9zf 19 дней назад

@BKrystall 11 месяцев назад

Baritones come in 2 sizes. Low Bb and Low A. Even though its one of the lowest saxophones, many professional musicians can play the high altissimo register. James Carter and John Surman can play the extreme high register.
