The runescape levels in the thumbnail😩

I love Baptiste’s comment: “We are all superheroes - everybody has different skills”. By the way, great video and content! 👍

I’ve met and played a gig with Baptiste and can confirm he is as much of a monster saxophonist in real life. Great video!

3:32 The notes are A# A# F# G# repeating (alto pitch) but Baptiste fingered the second A# as middle D# and overblows it I think

In mine eyes, you are a consummate genius, Mr. Bro, thanks for posting. What a great talent you have.

Can you make a video about how you developed your classical tone vs your tone for jazz and how you switch between the two? Your tone is so different depending on what you’re playing. When I work on my tone for jazz playing it always affects my tone for classical playing. I want to learn how to switch it the way you do.

impressive progress magnificent result!!!

At 3:35 he is playing false fingerings (overtones) a lá Coltrane, Brecker, Berg, Kenny Garrett and so on.

Second 😂 also, I'm glad you started posting frequently again 🎉

This is a must. I will definitely play this!

Hey, Nathan! As a Brazilian and Baptiste's fan I couldn't be happier to see you sharing more videos of him playing with Nelson Faria (one of my country's best guitar players). "Um Café Lá em Casa" is a great interview/jam session youtube channel hosted by Nelson himself and Brazil's finest musicians. However, I need to emphasize the importance of Idriss Boudrioua, the other alto player on the video. France born and Rio de Janeiro based, Idriss is one of the most influential saxophone players of Brazil, inspiring thousands of jazz musicians with his huge melodic and harmonic knowledge. That's why he was invited for the show and not Baptiste (who was there to watch the interview and occasionally jammed with Nelson and Idriss). I highly recommend you to listen to his albums, especially the "Base and Brass" ones, that features spectacular big band arrangements written by Idriss himself. Also, B&B III contains mindblowing solos from Baptiste. Anyway, great video!

good day when saxologic uploads

Baptiste is the god of the fuking altosax

You crack me up, inspire me and teach me. thanks.

Definitely the right decision of day 5, you don't need to be another Baptiste, we got one already, so become a Nathan. Osmose those licks.

Adoro como as pessoas sempre surpreendem com os músicos do Brasil. A emoção sempre é de um universo novo, e digo a todos, escutem música brasileira de todos os gêneros e verá que há uma nova forma de expressão no ar. Principalmente no ritmo, as síncopes no Brasil dançam.

Definitely going to try and learn this! 😭

Baptiste is inhuman. Arguably the most perfect technician to play the instrument.

Thanks for the theory breakdown at the beginning. To my ear the first part of this lick sounds like Donna Lee transitioning into the end of the first phrase of Just Friends, so it was cool to see you quoted Just Friends at 2:27. I’ll defer to the others explanations of the false fingering/overtone thing at 3:33, but in addition to Pharaoh Sanders it was also something Michael Brecker would do as well as later John Coltrane (in his free-er albums like Interstellar Space). Thanks again, this video is up there with the Kazuki Katsuta Mario Kart lick to me and I appreciate you transcribing it and sharing your process - it makes learning and practicing it more accessible to the rest of us! :)

This was hard to watch as my face was melting. Great to see you, my Dude

Im confident that 3 consequtive days of dedicated practice is the threshold for feeling the biggest change in your playing.

just wanted to comment that the thumbnail on this video is SICK

At 3:35 I think it’s some kind of false fingering thing going on. Michael Brecker did a lot of stuff like that.

Really fine; a deep trudge through some dark recesses of shedwork. legit & bravo!

Dude, this vid was particularly goofy and good - even by your standard :D At 3.33ish he's doing false fingerings and some overtone shenanigans, I think. It's a great session, Baptiste also takes an insane solo on All the things you are with some spicy licks.

Oh, and for the C-sharp Altissimo, overblowing first finger B works great.

Man, seu canal é maravilhoso! E voce é um grande musico e um otimo comediante! 😅😅😅

Nailed it day one! Your're awesome!

Ight, inspired to practice today. Thanks!

Love your vids man!

your analyse is really great!!!!! Thankyou!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 👌💫

Nice

God I love this guy.

UPDATE ON MY JAZZ BAND AUDITION thanks to your help i made it in as an alternate!!!!

I have a deficiency in connecting ANYTHING together. 20+ years of playing and I'm nowhere near your level. Transcription is too hard for me because I can hear the notes but I'm bad at rhythms. And I can't sightread music very well because I don't have the mental capacity to read ahead and, despite my best efforts, there are too many pauses and hiccups while my brain tries to catch up and process what I just looked at.

Thank you for this video!!! 🎷

I need Yoshi to help me stop cussing, too! We have so much in common.

....I've been pushing... Later on I'll have to employ the grey matter and work with it...but for now... gruntin' it out.... Have a nice day.. 🐼

yessir

Aí q tu vê que o Nelsão é o rei da internet memo

baptiste is a unnatural player, loved him for years

Wowwww

Great video format 😍🙌

This is Soooooooooooooooo AMAZING.🎷

3:34 sounds like he’s repeating the melody to Miles Davis’ “Four” and then fluttering the F, F#, and D keys without pressing the G key. Essentially you are trilling F, E, and D, minus the G key.

What a lick! Does this count as a “written jazz solo”? Love that silver bell nexus btw!

Were you ever able to figure out the soft palate issue or it's just something to deal with now?

Very good

If you believe in Jesus, you and your family will be saved.Thank you for sharing this wonderful video.

i clicked for the runescape

I've found that sometimes the overblown palm E fingring for C# can be squirrely. Maybe you could try octave key, X and 4 for C#?

I think for the false fingering lick, he’s playing F#, G#, Bis Bb then fingering a middle D# and over blowing for the BB false fingering. For the altissimo G# - F# that you were having some trouble with, try 1-3 and 1 for the F#. Then it’s easy to go back and forth between the two.

First

Now learn it in all 12 keys

You sound just like him

❤😂🎉

Gyat.

what happend to your mark vi?

What type of material is used for your sax's key buttons?

I really believe Baptiste has an absolute control over the instrument. The only problem is that sometimes it all feels like too much. Dude just slow down, we get it.

What program does he use to trasncribe licks and put it on sheets?

All right, that does it. If this is what it takes to get great, I’m selling both of my horns and buying a motorcycle! L O L😢

Sounds a lot like the Mario kart luck, I'm just saying

ugh...this just makes me annoyed at learning sax. Probably 10+ more years before I can even consider this.

Try using 1 2 G# Tf For f#3 :)) lemmekno if it works
