Classical Saxophone Snob Attempts Jazz Saxophone - 2

3 жыл бұрынThe snobbery prevails. Just a reminder - the classical snob in this video is a character that represents the embodiment of ridiculous things I've heard from snobby classical musicians during my time in undergrad & what I've seen in forums and KZfaq comments. At this point, this series is also becoming an excuse to meet and show off these amazing players.
Thank you to Ryan Devlin for being in this video! You are insanely driven, dude. You are the ultimate man. Here is Ryan's Instagram:

Well played gentlemen! I too experienced this phenomena during my college days as a saxophonist. I came into college as a hot shot jazzer, but ALL MUSIC MAJORS were obligated to take the APPLIED STUDIES for their instrument, which was/is always classical in nature. I must say that my applied saxophone professor, Dr. Thomas Liley, who was no jazzer and he knew it, helped me become a far better player. The embouchure, tone, technique, etc., that he taught made me a much more complete player. I am a jazzer through and through, but thanks to Dr. Liley, I have an appreciation and even an ear for great classical saxophone. Side note: Dr. Liley's saxophone professor during his college days was none other than Dr. Eugene Rousseau.

Jazz players can if they want to add it to their artillery , depending on the mood or personality. Remember jazz is part of the "popular music" , so Funk. Blues, Rock, R&B , Reggae, Latin are related doesn't matter the differences. If saxophonists get stuck to sounding the same from top to bottom of the horn, not personal effects or even "Noises" the saxophone would have never become the most recorded wind instrument in popular music. For an instance Imagine any Stevie Wonder or Sting tune remove the sax players and add a couple of guys blinking their eyes and dancing like a fairy , while playing in a clarinet angle , using a constant vibrato (not even other classical instruments use) . Good luck to any possible hit. On the other hand everything is about context , classical sound is supposed to blend with violins, cellos, bassoons. "Popular Music sound" is supposed to be able to blend and cut over Electric guitars, Trumpets, Keyboards, Drums or speak the same language as a Jazz quartet or Big Band. The sound needs to be as unique and personal as possible . That's what makes you listen to different versions of a song by different sax players. What's the point if they all do the same? I don't mean classical players sound exactly the same and opposite to what some people believe the soloists have freedom to express themselves and even simply our natural physical differences won't allowed 2 guys sounding the same. But the differences are a lot more pronounced when you have a different goal and don't have to play in forced style someone imagined the creator of the instrument wanted to sound like just because...Listen to Michael Brecker, Stan Getz, Seamus Blake, James Carter, Joe Henderson. Their sound is as personal as their voice. I was a classically trained oboist and I switch to sax when I was 15 just because of Jazz. Michael BRECKER to be exact.

Don't forget about perfect posture and beautifully modulated vibrato, no growling please. Attire should be a suit or a dress, never casual wear, it's just not proper. Large mpc tip openings are anathema, shush Satan, be gone. And never forget, whether you are a Classical saxophonist or a Jazz randomnoter, always, I mean always let your ego get in the way lest you might learn some modesty and give up on some of your misconceptions.

Many classical musicians have always felt superior to other musicians, however classical players secretly marvel at, and wonder about, how jazz musicians practice, play, and improvise? What many don't know is the fact that most jazz musicians started out learning and playing classical music in their early training. The reason they left classical music and turned to learning jazz was the fact that jazz allows them total freedom in their playing, and in their spontaneous composing, in addition to a harmonic and tonal world rarely heard in the classical repertoire.

I love playing with classical musicians. You just have to sell "the piece" to them. They are the perfect tools altough it can be weird writing down funk or afrobeat licks that were never meant to be written down XD.

@@DereBear A bunch of licks that he's playing are very brecker/coltrane signature lick. Another "Breckerisms" are these run from the bottom to the top of the tenor sax register. And the jazz licks they were playing are all tipical Brecker pattern (except the swing one). Brecker, Steve Grossmann are very present in Ryan's playing. If you listen to some recording of these two great cats you will notice. Hope this will help you. Sorry for my english.

@@DereBear and also: the lick in the thumbnail is the lick at around 1:16 in this transcription of Mike Brecker on a blues with the Louis Bellson big band. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y92ZlKeKx8-ZZ2Q.html Other lick that he's playing are very common on Brecker solo on Oleo in 1983 and also Brecker solo on Impression with McCoy Tyner on a great album

@@albertob.932 no no don’t worry about the English, thank you for so many examples! After listening I can hear exactly what you’re talking about. You have a great ear since you picked up on all those licks and “breckerisms”. I’m a vocal performance guy so my ear is more trained to that, but to see instrumental players influences so plainly like this is really cool. Thank you for taking the time to do that
