    I live in a place in Normandy near the little village where the french singer, Yves Montand, had his house. This song (in french "Les feuilles mortes") was one of his favorit songs. I just have to open my windows and I am sure that he listen to you playing tenor sax. The way you play is very close to the original one. Thank you for this and continue to put on YT beautiful backing tracks..

    I grew up listening to Gene Ammons and Dexter from my dad
    Then I heard Trane and Brecker.
    Sometimes i can think back to my childhood and remember how I would lay in bed and drop tears when Gene and Dex played a ballad. It really is all about the sound and voice.
    Love your playin.....

    "Autumn Leaves" is a popular song and jazz standard composed by Joseph Kosma (Hungarian-French composer) with original lyrics by Jacques Prévert in French, and later by Johnny Mercer in English.

    Out of all the saxophone artists I’ve listened to your sound & style on these Jazz standards inspires me the most. So delicate, sparse when needed, lots of colour in the melody & the texture in the breathe really makes it resonate for me. Yes keep on posting!

    I had an olds when in band and my buddy had a silver selmer ( both trumpets.
    Then when my son went in band he chose the sax and this was the song his jazz band played for the public.

      pinkyman5155 to be fair if you listen to Stuart’s other videos in which he plays all sorts of different saxes & mouthpieces, he sounds equally as good in them all. It’s him rather than the gear.

  • @charlesparr3296

    The tone from those old Selmer Mk VI's is imitated by many brands but never duplicated. The old Bueschers and Martin's had great tone also.

    @g-man3093 3 года назад

    When I worry about the state of jazz performance, this reminds how important it is for strong exemplars of swing feel on saxophone because while much fewer saxophones are being purchased than in the 1930s and 1940s, there is no contemporaneous swing music environment.

    Great - especially as YOU row definitively and affirmatively among and between the chord changes.
    I would have adored hearing takes on tenor saxophone by: Bud Shank, Sam Most, Charles Marianno, Art Pepper, Lee Konitz, Zoot Sims, and yes, Aubra Graves, the unsung Canadian hero of "Organic Smooth Jazz" - in the strictest significance of the phrase, smooth + jazz.
    Excellentissimo - tone and ad lib.
