Hi Ben, As I mentioned last commune, I recently started to play bari again. In the past, got good reviews when playing concert band and big band; but though, my saving grace was a decent set up, I feel I didn’t put time to correct my shorts! I play an inexpensive Hite, very good basic piece and an old Buescher from 40s 50s, great horn. It’s basically me that needs work! I am a clarinetist; but I can function in other musical settings. I am starting out from “the good bottom line” playing on a new Yamaha 5C and will receive a Rico Metalite #7; which is at the other end from what you are using. I will progress onward. Today I will receive a call From SYOS. Like the sound Dayna Stephens gets. Well that’s it for now! Love your sound man! Best Wishes, USA Richard
Hi Richard! Good that you picked up the bari again, and nice horns as well! Well, you dont need a crazy expensive mk6 to play like a badass or at least get your playing up. I chose for a mk6 because I wanted my investment to be safe. Selmers in general, and at the top the mk6, are known for having very stable value. I wouldve been (almost) as happy with a nice yamaha or something simular. But when I decided to play bari as well, after doing some research I noticed in general that all bari’s are quite expensive. Because I have to make a living with music, I need my instruments to be reliable and good sounding, so I was looking at the upper spectrum of the bari’s. Don’t get me wrong, this bari is killer and I’m very happy and thankful to play on an instrument like this! I just try to explain good gear is not a must. A cheaper hammer will also get the nail in the board ;-) Hope to see some video’s of you playing your gear! Keep it up
It's so cool! I used the sheet music and sound source. I'm Japanese and an amateur saxophone player. I want to be able to play something cool like this someday.
Excuse my language, but ur fuck8ng crazy if u choose not produce this. It was so good I looked for a transcription for hours. U gotta an ear for music bro
@@joesgotnobeans3246 we cant share emails in this comment section, can you go to my website and send me a message? Http://www.benrodenburg.com Ill send you the sheet music asap :-)
Nicely done Sir Ben ! I looped that jam many times, and will again ! About to get my first Bari - hope to get that 'percussion' low 'Blat - Blat' as well as you do ! I'm decent with it on Tenor, but, woah - to hit ALL the Lows on the Bari so well - Do you have a 3rd Lung goin on there Bro ? :)
Hahaha, no third lung going on here. All, at least I think so. Ill get an x-ray just to be sure ;-) As this is my first Bari as well, I wanted a mouthpiece that gets that "honk" sound, and I get that very easy with the Vandoren v16. It is def worth checking out!
@@BenRodenburg Hey - I got a $35 Rico MPC to practice on waiting for my Custom DRAKE .115. So Yup - After comparing the Rico (good for Rock & Marching Band) A better MPC is AWESOME !! I was intimidated by the Drake at first, but if you know your embouchure (as you obviously do) - This MPC Rocks !! I play a 'soft' Low A on this Drake, as I meander in the music lake, and - What's good for the Goose is good for this Gander - No Fake !!
Also - My Wife, who is not so essentially musically discerning, totally notices the difference betwixt the Drake and the Rico, So - I do want to try the Vandoren MPC's with THEIR Reeds - They have the best reeds too !!
Agree with The Jazz Cartel. If you have written this type of cool music - I would actually play, promote, buy, give credits to your songs, etc. I am not pro - only a 'hack' with a day job, but am getting more Fans as I keep playing "My Style". p.s. Love that vintage recording equipment !! I just retired some old Zoom-HD16 stuff and got my first USB Mic to go with Reaper . . . It's actually pretty good !
Thanks man for the kind words! Working on it haha! Usb and other digital stuff works great! The vintage stuff only gives you just a tiny bit extra with the digital stuff doesn't give you. And also, more knobs is always better :-)
Hey Ben, I was hoping I could get the sheet music for this? I've noticed that you've sent it to others through email, but i'm not sure as to how I would send you mine. Any help would be wonderful, thank you so much.
Hi Revert! Unfortunately I decided to stop with giving saxophone lessons for now. Combining that with my work as a musician and being a father wasn't working out like I thought it would haha. I'm sorry!
Avitarus hi! On bari I play a Vandoren V16 B7 mouthpiece, Vandoren M|O ligature and Vandoren V16 2,5 reeds. Really love this combo! Sounds amazing and plays very comfortable.
@@BenRodenburg Oh sorry I didn't even notice! I really enjoy this song and I'm glad theres a Tenor, Alto and Bari part. Thank you for making this piece, I find it absolutely beautiful!
@@BenRodenburg may i ask, what is your setup? The mouthpiece looks like a v16 and ligature looks like a vandoren optimum but what reed and strength do you play and what brand bari is that? Sounds amazing
This is... FANTASTIC! I'm a Bari Sax player and I can never find any Bari Sax solo stuff unless it is Leo P. Do you have any sheet music for this? If not that is totally cool.
You deserve more subs, your music needs to be shared(I’m a bari also)
Thanks for the kind words man!
Me too
Hello my fellow people of culture (I'm a bari too)
