    Jay, you remind me of the excellence of the great tenor masters via your great tone, articulation and melodic improvisation.
    I am thinking especially of Lester Young, Paul Quinnochett, Paul Gonzales, Frank Wess and, yes, Clifford Jordan, Zoot Sims, Junior Cook and Scott Hamilton.

    Many thanks for this, Jay. You are my 'go to guy' for sax teaching resources. For those who don't know, you can transcribe this magnificent solo by clicking settings (the wheel symbol found on the bottom right of the screen) then selecting one of the slowdown options (suggest you do 50% first to get your ear in, then move up to 75%). Start with four or five notes. Hum them to yourself a couple of times then pick them out on your sax. I would do a couple of phrases a day, then really master them before you move onto the next ones. SOOO much improvement in just a week of effort.
    Jay you are the top guy. Such a great player, but a lovely easy teaching manner too. I've learned so much from you.

    Jay, just coming across this video 2 years after you posted it. Wow ! … that’s a lot of notes !! Well done sir. No disrespect… but I love your tenor playing than the alto. Maybe, because I am partial to the lower sounds resonance of a tenor. Again, nicely done mate.

    I notice that you're playing with a lip forward embouchure on the tenor here.
    Do you find that to be a vital change from playing the alto? I'm picking up the Tenor again after 25 years and there's a lot to (re)learn. Thanks Jay 👍

  • @santonopoulou
    @santonopoulou 2 года назад +1

    Wow! wonderfully done. Do you have any advice to achieve such a warm tone? I know I most likely would need to upgrade my mouthpiece and reed setup, but from a technical point of view. Perhaps you have a video you could recommend? I've been trying to get something similar all year, and I feel like there's something technique-wise that I'm missing. I"d like to lock that in before purchasing a new mouthpiece - the one I'm looking at is upwards of $500usd - so I'd like to know I have the techniques to put it to use prior to purchasing. I've always played classical, but now that I'm retired with a lot more free time I have been playing more casual stuff with friends and I'd like to improve my tone in that style :) Thanks either way for sharing such a wonderful performance with us :)
