As a former Alto Sax player, the only thing I could recommend is the essential elements book for Alto Sax

As a flutist recently picked up saxophone, this gives me a lot of motivation but also reminds me that mistakes do happen! This is awesome!!

Hell yea man! I've played saxophone for many years now and while i do agree that the sax is easy to get into, it's incredibly hard to sound good at it. Very good work here.

I’m a concert Bb and bass clarinetist who tried tenor sax last year, it’s hard! The fact you pulled off such a consistent and fluent sound is awesome!

Thank you for reminding me why I learnt sax in the first place. To learn something new. Simple as that.

i just found this video while looking for saxophone for beginners' video and I feel like your content is unique. You deserve more subscriber and more attention

Good job man just started playing and have been for a couple weeks now and you’re doing so great in my opinion.

Sounded amazing! For the high note, increase your air speed (not the same as amount of air) and maybe try aiming your air a tiny bit more up. Also make sure you’re relaxed.

Thanks for inspiring me I just bought one and I can’t wait to play it ❤❤🐵😃

I´m glad i stumbled upon this funny and also inspirational video. Did you continue playing ? Anyways i enjoyed it and you got a new subscriber

I got to squeek and laugh, exactly like you sitting there. Thank you.

As a former sax player alto it is hard to get your first note out but once you do that it’s easy but it’s hard to master it

Glad to see video blowing up after 4 days and almost 100 subscribers

Watch Eddie and the cruisers movies all the time, knew the riff and came to watch the entire video!

for the longest time, I wanted to pick up Saxo. But I'm not confident, especially since I live in an apartment. But damn, I'm 27 now and I still want to.

Underrated channel!!

Nice progress man. I hope you sticked to it after.

I actually love this

I'm a trumpet player who started learning clarinet 2 weeks ago and it's much easier than trumpet but still, so exhausting! And the fingerings are difficult lol. I can pay recorder (similar fingerings to sax) so my temptation to also rent a sax is now through the roof lol

I just started playing the alto sax in school, I hope I can be as you someday

Crazy confidence to perform in 7 days of learning!

So inspiring! Well done 👏

Bro why are u so underrated

great watch

As an alto sax the first day hurt so bad 😂😂😂

dope!

I just got a sax today and decided to start off learning 21st Century Schizoid Man. I thought I bit off more than I could chew but the intro riff isn’t too bad!

hell yeah

curious on how you found the notes for tender years? or did you wing that?

You got this, just need to work on your sound a bit - But i can hear you know music :-). Your channel seem really professional keep cranking your vids out! - subbed

When I first got my sax alto I broke the mouth piece and after a year I could play the music it is easy As I play saxophone I notice to play a lot of notes I use g a lot

As a violinist, I was able to get to grade 1 saxophone in a month. But having someone around who already plays is way easier than self teaching imo

EDDIE & The CRUISERS! 🤘

I been playing for 3 years

As a saxophonist i recommend you don't try to play any songs until you're familiar with your scales

Saxophone is easy by technicality when you consider what is has, but in actuality it isn’t. Here is googles logic, Saxophone is a wind instrument. But since it isn’t brass and it’s a woodwind, your embouchure will stay the same throughout all ranges including altissimo. So it’s easier technically speaking. But even as a woodwind it’s one of the easiest, because it uses a reed. But even as a reed instrument it’s easier because it’s a single reed instrument not a double reed, yet even as a single reed, it’s the easiest single reed because of the fact that there is no difficulty of covering tone holes, just buttons that do that for you. But that’s an awful way of thinking about it. I don’t think difficulty of instruments is in an order via checklist. As well as google neglecting the fact that all wind instruments are tough to begin on, compared to non wind instruments. I would definitely agree that should an experienced wind player that doesn’t play saxophone pick it up, they would not have as much trouble as a non wind instrument, but that’s just obvious. Another aspect that makes saxophone “easier” is the fact that the saxophone features a wide range of tone variations. Listen to classical saxophone and you’ll realize that there is a clear difference and it almost sounds like a different instrument. As a saxophonist you can make the sound of the instrument whatever you like, and the limitations of sound are lot lesser compared to other instruments. Jazz players let the reed vibrate a lot to produce the sound you hear, while classical players will use their lip to control the speed of the reed to make it sound more like a traditional woodwind. There are even wacky forms of saxophone played where they make use of slap tonguing, multiphonics, and bends to create very interesting music. Duduk style is an example of how there aren’t many limitations with what is possible.

Can you remember me when Your Famous?

🎷💕💕💕💕💕

You did good you just gotta work on your articulation and dynamics if you wanna play those really fast, jazz solo songs

As a alto sax player you need to first get a habits of a successful beginner musician alto saxophone the green one

What strength of reed did you start with?

Always put instruments in bags when renovating 🤣

How do you only have 624 subs

I can play flute!

Also get a book

I suggest that you have a little bit of mouth piece/reed in your mouth when trying to hit a high note

Dont get the saxophone because you think its easy 1 year in and im still not able to play most songs also the reeds are sooooo expensive

Try bari sax

this hurts. THE FINGERING IS SO EASY- WHYY????

You got good for sad for 7 days try some new reeds

Guys i just battled cancer and i won who wanna buy me 🎷

Skills? Blach
