    As a guitarist, great to have vocabulary from other instrumentalists. Guitarists tend to use pentatonics a lot and it can be difficult to make these sound fresh on the instrument.

    Hey Chad, it’s a super hard time right now for a lot of musicians and I’m finding it doubly hard to be inspired with the lack of live music and the ability to play with people regularly. So thank’s for sharing stuff with a variety of examples which we can practice and then transpose and alter. It gives us a much needed outside perspective and inspiration in a time that is so difficult both creatively and financially.
    Thanks!

    @solutions2exist556 3 года назад +2

    Excellent but now I have to worry about my mind moving so slowly. I will need an exercise book to speed it up. Nope - you are very accomplished. Good instructions and overview. I suffered a facial left side paralysis 13 years ago so trumpet became history after 45 plus years. However, I throughly enjoyed your video. Just wished you had played half speed first before performance runs - as my old tired eyes just couldn’t keep up. Also, I have not read music in a long long time. So my comments are not relevant either. Great job.

    The descending riffs are also known as 'retrograde' motion. You can also find similar exercises in the Danny Wilensky Advanced Sax book.

    • @davidmmcg
      @davidmmcg 3 года назад

      It's actually not retrograde; it's inversion just as Chad describes it. The retrograde pattern would have *start* with the skip that the ascending pattern ends with.

  • @tomrees4812

    How much is muscle memory, how much is playing by ear and how much is knowing which notes are in the scale? Maybe this varies from player to player but I’d like to know where I should be headed, if you know what I mean.

    Uhm, excuse me. I thought I paid you to do that Ramon?!? Lol.
    Yeah yeah yeah, I know. Transcribing it myself is better in the long run. But not if I get overwhelmed and put the horn away!
