As a beginner, on tenor saxophone, 7 months in, and 72 years of age having previously been a jazz drummer, this is enlightening, very interesting and informative. Thank you.
Thanks! 👍
Playing 56 years and learned something new and useful today. Never used the C# key that way before. Thanks!
No problem! 👍🏼
My fun key hack is to hold all the keys down for low or middle D then lift my first and second finger left hand to trill from D to C#
Nice! 👍🏼
So, one of the songs I enjoy playing is Summertime. On tenor sax, there is a D to C# note transition. I could never play it smoothly enough until you shared this hack.
Thank you!
How
Fantastic lesson and I enjoyed your soloing throughout -- great tone.
Thanks! Much appreciated. 👍🏼
Awesome, Joel.
Thanks for this.
What is that small piece attached to the bell for?
that was a great hint - thanks very much Joel
Awesome tip! Thank you very much!
Splendid discussion and illustration, Joel! Thanks!
No problem! 👍🏼
Whoa! That C# key is amazing. Never knew that.
Thanks! 👍🏼
Really great tips! Thank you🎵
No problem! 👍🏼
Very useful, thank you 🎉
Thanks! 👍🏼
Your sound is very beautiful! What a tenor should sound!!
Thanks! Very kind. 👍🏼
Very interesting lesson. Thanks. A bit of a non-sequitor (but to me important) question. You are not using a neck strap at all in this video. How are you supporting the Tenor? I have a bad back and however you are doing it might potentially help.
Thanks! The support is something I designed myself with an engineer friend many years ago after a back injury. Unfortunately it’s very bespoke to my horn and not easily replicable, otherwise I’d be a millionaire by now!! Best wishes. Joel. 👍🏼
Here is one video from McGill, there is one model, a little bit like Joels system. ruclips.net/video/-OmNXokTD_0/видео.html
HAPPY THANKSGIVING🦃
Thanks! You too!! 🎉
But I’ve been playing 56 years and used the C#G# but the low C# scale hack never occurred to me
Glad to bring you something new then!! Best wishes. Joel. 👍🏼
Thanks Joel.
Have you had a mod done to your bottom Bb key? If so who did the mod?
It’s in Oleg Low Bb Extension. 👍🏼
How have I never heard of this Blues scale? Happy Thursday Day Owl

Is just brilliant trick with c#. Is a bit heavy to keep it press all the time and requires me to adjust wrist as I play an old (beautiful) Yani T880. Many thanks again Joel
Make sure you are not using left hand to carry weigh of the horn! Strap & right thumb for stability. Left hand should be free with no tension!!!
Thanks! Try experimenting with slight adjustments to you hand position, making as much surface area contact with the key as you can, and keeping a loose, relaxed wrist. Also, you can release it when not required, particularly in left hand fingerings where it can feel a little more awkward. Best wishes. Joel. 👍🏼
@@JoelPurnell thank you!
Great video! What is connected to your sax? It's around the Bb pad about halfway up to the bell? Looks red and some type of metal.
Thanks! It’s a stand I made! 👍🏼
Any chance of getting pictures of it so I can make my own?@@JoelPurnell
Génial !!!
Thanks! 👍🏼
@@JoelPurnell could youu please tell me what mouthpiece do you play here ?
@@patam-patamit’s an Otto Link 7*. 👍🏼
Thank you for the video! Out of curiosity, were you using a Bois ligature? Thanks!
Thanks! No, it’s a prototype of a new lig called the ‘Orbit’. 👍🏼
@@JoelPurnellyour vids are a great discovery for me. I love your sound, can I ask what mouthpiece you're playing on this clip?
@@chrisnielson3761Thanks! It’s an Otto Link 7*. 👍🏼
What is your sax support ?
Hi. The support is something I designed myself with an engineer friend many years ago after a back injury.. 👍🏼
Nice even sound. Do you play a Selmer? One of my bari saxes is an old Buescher, without the g# c# transfer. The other bari has it.
Best Wishes!
Thanks! Yes 1965 MkVI. If you know a good instrument technician, it can often be added if you really want it. Best wishes. Joel. 👍🏼
