WHAT IS "THING INSIDE THE BOX"?
Thomann is going to send me a mystery box every month and challenge me with whatever’s inside. It could be an instrument, new equipment or anything else music related.
I’m going to take you along with me and capture my progress each and every day and if there’s anything else exciting happening that week, you’ll get to see that as well.
I will then incorporate the instrument/equipment etc. into one of my videos where I sing and play the guitar, which you'll get to see two weeks after the first challenge video goes up.

![Is FAULTY TONGUING Ruining YOUR Sax Playing? Let’s Fix It… [#229]](/img/1.gif)
I laughed when she first played it the mouthpiece was upside down haha
Yes! Me too lol
same xD
i know right
I was about to comment that
Me to
I play saxophone and I have a permanent indent on the inside of my bottom lip 😂😂😂
Rachel Hoang that might be a sign of biting. Not sure whether you have been playing for a couple months, couple years, or couple decades, but generally you should never be biting your bottom lip against the reed
@@Coderedpirate excuse? What? 😂 Do you play saxophone because having an indent on the inside of your bottom lip isn't bad. That doesn't mean it's a sign of biting, you should be "Biting" your bottom lip over your bottom teeth. You put pressure on the Reed so it can vibrate against the mouthpiece and produce sound, if you just have your teeth bite on the Reed then it squeaks.
After a while it should heal but yeah, you'll usually always have that indent, I do too 😂
Chepe Gaming I’m not gonna force you to not bite your lip when you play but no you shouldn’t be biting, you should be pushing your upper lip to create a seal. Biting creates shrill tone and sharp pitch. Yeah it isn’t bad having an indent, but it’s bad because it shows a sign of bad technique and embechure
@@Coderedpirate your right, it can cause bad tone, but the way you phrased it sounded like you didn't want her to have that bottom lip over and bite. Yes, do not bite hard because the notes will come out strange like you say, I've seen people play like that and wow!😂 I understand what you wanted to say, it was just confusing, I interpreted differently
The fact she’s trying to educate the viewers on how to play the sax yet she’s the one who has never played before. Lol
I think youll find she was trying to learn to play in 3 days herself
If she teaches as she learns what's wrong with that? You get to see her mistakes and not make them etc
You laugh, but this video got me to start playing the sax. If nothing, she's inspiring.
Best way to learn something is to teach it
Great job on learning in a short time! For your neck pain, you should use a Jazz Labs Saxholder Saxophone neck harness. It's especially designed to support a Tenor Sax (but can be used on an alto as well), because the regular neck strap puts the full weight of the instrument around your neck and pulls down on it. This can cause neck problems whereas the Saxholder balances the weight around your shoulders instead and takes the strain off your neck, which is left entirely free. That will make playing the saxophone a lot easier and more comfortable, allowing you to practise for longer periods.
Nice one!! I hope you don’t mind if I say some things: think about pushing up against the reed with the bottom lip for a softer, more jazz sound. The Bb key you pointed out: do not use the second finger for that! The idea is to put your first finger over the B key and the Bb key. Another fingering is two fingers for an A plus the lowest side key down on the right (little row of 3 buttons there). Tongue notes by gently ‘dabbing’ the reed with the front edge of the tongue. You are stopping and releasing the air, on, off.
Mouthpiece: the further you put the mouthpiece into your mouth, the more of a honk you will get. Too little and you will squeeze the tip of the reed too much and it will squeak, and you will struggle to get high notes.
I’m well impressed: you knew nothing, a few days and there’s a good C scale! Nice one. I really hope I’ve helped a bit. Keep on it! :)))
thank you so much for your comment and your tips! it definitely helped a lot :)
Steuart Hedington akiooi
XD you helped me as a begginer
@@NicoleMilikMusic 💪
I loved this. You made it so unintimidating.
I've had my sax for many years but haven't even learned the scales yet.
I love the sound and can get sound out of it.
I appreciated the info on soreness that may show up on lips, thumb, neck and throat! Awesome video!
ruclips.net/video/ZW1l5GYriUs/видео.html
If the alto is heavy for you while sitting down, I can’t imagine you trying a bari sax while marching lol. 34lbs btw.
Imagine marching with subcontrabass tubax😂
Merk that’s on the high end lmfao its 15-35
Merk I march bari and have so many back problems
Hammy the bacon lmao whiny bitch
Facts
Omg when she played with the mouthpiece upside-down I died a little inside
This brings back memories from 6 th grade beginning band lol
Noboby can learn to how to play the saxophone in 3 days or in 3 months. Just developing the correct embouchure, a decent tone and some technique may take months and daily practice.
Not really if you played clarinet before then tried Saxephone like I did you call learn how to play in 4 days at the least I switched from Clarinet to tenor sax literally on August 14th this year it took me 4 days to learn how to play Night on bald mountain
Nah, that doesn't take months.
@@alexthetrashgod1047 same
its not impossible i played clarinet for 3 year then decided to play tenor sax, which i learned in a week, for me it took 3 hours a day for me to be able to play the low register in a week aswell as learning the fingerings.
i taught someone who picked it up in 2 1 hour lessons, its completely relative to who the person is
As smne who's been playing the sax for 28 years and teaching it for about two decades, I can honestly say, you did fantastic. I'm actually impressed you could pick it up with consistency of tone after 3 days. Hope you'll keep practicing this instrument that can be demanding but very satisfying as well. Godspeed !
ruclips.net/video/ZW1l5GYriUs/видео.html
Oh man, this video reminded me of when I first started playing Saxophone. 12 years later I teach lessons on Saxophone.
Keep up the good work, Nicole! Ich hoffe, dass Sie Spaß hatten! :)
I started to get grooves on my mouth piece after about a month of practicing
get a bite guard, its a little sticker that cushion the mouthpiece, without it you might end up breaking the mouthpiece- for me they also make it easier to play and is just better
I’m going to college for music education with the alto being my primary instrument. This really just gave me a good chuckle. I’m only about halfway through the video at this point but I absolutely love the fact she played it upside down at first
I really don’t know why am watching this am actually a professional saxophone player😂
Can you teach me?
Almost feel like buying a sax after seeing this
That’s wonderful!!!
@@shannonnicollechannel5884 🖖😊🎷🎷🎷🎷
This is amazing!!! Just got a Saxophone this past March before COVID hit. So not hard to get the sound out everything but little by little. Please do more saxophone videos soon.
Liebe Nicole, wie schaffst du das bloß immer Dir in so kurzer Zeit so viele Sachen zu merken?! Du bist in meinen Augen so unheimlich talentiert. Wow! Ich freue mich immer wieder, wenn neue Videos von Dir hochgeladen werden. Dank der Kooperation mit Thomann und der Challenges merkt man erst richtig, wie musikalisch du tatsächlich bist. Danke und weiter so.
wow. Danke schön 🙈 Ich weiß gar nicht was ich sagen soll, außer DANKE DANKE DANKE ❤️
I love how she was practicing a brass embouchure
i know LOL I was just thinking that
@Gacha Roko wow I didn't know that, that's actually cool
I play saxophone now for 10 years and I still love it
Oh wow. I am interested but where should I begin??
ruclips.net/video/ZW1l5GYriUs/видео.html
Not at all bad especially for no formal lessons. Good job. I have taught sax 40 years it’s a great instrument
All actual sax players are triggered 😂
Cloey Perez lol I play alto and tenor (alto for 3years now) I found this really funny. And her progress seems ok-ish. When the mouth piece was upside down I bursted out laughing tho😂
Cloey Perez I’m a sax player and this hurts to watch
@@izzy_spfx8825 I also play alto :) personally some parts hurt were hard to watch
@@leahplayzsad7122 I am a sax player aswell :)
There was once when her mouthpiece almost hit the wall, and i was so scared, i screamed REEDSSSSSSS!!!!
I am just starting to pick up a saxophone as my second instrument and I watched this and it helped me a lot! thanks
Awesome video! For somebody that have never held a saxophone, this is a really cool intro of what to do and what NOT to do :D
That was actually really really useful. Thanks so much.
Yeah. It gets people to give it a shot. Lots of people go around yapyapping about how hard it is and all the things you can do wrong and all the things you have to keep in mind and that your first saxophone should be one that all the greats play too and all of that really keeps a lot of people away, I bet.
I play several instruments.. Banjo, Electric Bass, and Sax..first two good, third, could be better..but if she learned this much , in such a short time…I’m impressed !…
Way to go :) Keep up the good work..
This is fun to watch and I just started playing a Tenor sax 😂
IGitzDiz Music same! I’ve had my tenor for a year and it’s for school. I don’t like the altos, most of them are annoying and alto saxs look like baby saxs which make them look dumb imo. Tenor looks nice uwu. This was cringey af but I made it through- but in the vid I have the same bite marks on the top of my mouthpiece ; I don’t bite to hard but idk how to not bite? ;~;
Just know. Those “baby” saxes have 90% of all the good solos. And tenors have the least by far.
Jacob Bass that doenst change the fact they are babies though- and they are too high- I don’t listen to sax solos butttt I think tenor would be better since it’s high and low, and alto is high- DO YOU PLAY ALTO OR WHAT? ;~; but it’s just your opinion on how good they are- ;_;
Sorry 90% of solos total. It’s the bassic instrument. Also composers who wanted a lower sounding Sax choose bari
Update?
I’m crying she has the mouthpiece on upside down😭😭😭😭
DID SHE JUST CALL AN ALTO HEAVY
She has not felt the Bari yet
My Alto is 6 pounds and it's considered heavy for an Alto 😂
Leo P laughs in baritone
@@jessemiller4860 laughs in vintage tenor
She hasn’t felt the contrabass
Bro, she is so good for a “total” beginner.
Tones good I've been playing for 3 years and I still sound like s###
Shit*
Yes! Erst Violine, nun Saxophon. Ich bin sehr neidisch! Das hast du dir verdient mit der langen Zeit von Musik auf RUclips. Bin so gespannt auf das Video.
Danke schön! Hoffe das Video gefällt dir :)
I ordered one, I just received it today. I am so excited.
And how it's going ?
I bought my daughter an Alto and I love the portability and that It nails the clarinet!
You did pretty well! Setting your reed in the right place really helps. Bb is with your index finger playing the B key and the little Bb key (bis key).
I have wanted to learn the sax for ages now, and I'm glad (and extremely relieved) to see the finger positions are really similar to the flute which I've played for a few years now - I look forward to learning sax in 3 days 😈
Flutes and saxophones have almost the exact same fingering. I play tenor and baritone sax but also can double on flute because of how similar they are.
Yes, but the saxophone is slightly easier because you can change octave with your thumb. (In my opinion)
Sehr cool mal wieder! :D
Danke für deinen Kommentar ☺️
I love this so much Nicki.
I play the saxophone myself and i died of laughter when she put on the mouth piece upside down
04:55
ahahah yes. i had to do it too, when it was difficult for me to start playing it
Hi Nicki,thank you very much for your introduction to the beginners like me.it doubles the interest of playing the beautiful instruments.expect more like this vedio.
ruclips.net/video/ZW1l5GYriUs/видео.html
I really liked the video. I am impressed by how fast you learned how to set up and produce the nice saxophone sound. Hope to hear more saxophone from you in the future.
I did a duet guitar and saxophone once with a friend of a friend and it is such a dear memory of mine. Maybe I should try to contact her again...
thank you so much for your lovely comment! ☺️ you will definitely hear some more saxophone in 2 weeks..but I'm sure I'm gonna keep practicing. I LOVE IT! You should definitely contact her again ☺️
ruclips.net/video/ZW1l5GYriUs/видео.html
lol... i'm playing saxophone 8 years... and my style is the jazz music. good luck, it's not difficult play saxophone
Hey your doing great i love saxophones all kinds🎶🎷😎🍁
WooooooooooW
Really! Nice informative video
👍💞👍💞👍💞👍💞👍💞👍💞👍💞👍
I watched your video and just finished ordering a tas-180! I am so excited! Thank you for inspiring me!
How has your journey been?
@meggokayzee6620 i sadly ended up selling it just a few months ago. I never had the time I was hoping for and I was doing the sax no justice by keeping it in the case. It found a more dedicated owner than me. I am still playing and have been playing piano daily although I want to give sax another try in the future.
Do you know if there is some difference between thomann 150 and 180? I'm between startone sas 75 and thomann 180 (these are the cheapest in Thomann's site) as a starter and if you have some advice for me, I would really appreciate it!
You are a very talented woman. I’m just starting sax & I know that lower lip would get worn out. How did you start sax. Is there free video?
Love your videos ❤️💕💘
thank you!! ❤️
The mouthpiece was upside down 😂😂🤣🤣🤣 LMFAO
Nicole is a gift for humanity
Awesome keep up the job your doing i like saxophones too right on see yah
is it an intuitive instrument to play? im an absolute noob at horns but know basic music theory and can read (not very good lol) and have a decent ear i think. i really wanna get into saxophone
Always love your vids, Thanks for this.. my Sax just arrived today. Wish Me Luck 😅
O also on the low notes loosen your embouchure it will help, and the easy scale on sax is definitely g or b-flat major
So talented!!
+You will want to use cork grease on the cork before putting the mouthpiece on. Also, when playing Bb you will want to use the left index finger only to press both keys (B and Bis key). Also, place your left pinky over the C# key. Also, don't buzz your lips or bite with your lower lip. Use air pressure to achieve the notes, and not bite pressure. Have fun
Good job 👌 I have a small strip of rubber to bit into on the mouth piece , this can be purchased in music shops, which made it easier on the lips for me ,
really cool Chris
Is this an alto or tenor? I am trying to figure which to learn and I like the sound of this one.
I’m so impressed!
I love this so much Nicki. You have so much talent. Love, love, love!!!
Thank youuuuu! So much love right back at you!!!
@@HeavenCanWait7-333 why
@@HeavenCanWait7-333 right!! As a saxaphonist what is this-
instablaster.
Thank you so much
What do you think about playing Alto sax over tenor sax gooseneck
Thank you!!!
SO CUTE
To take the weight off the neck get the Jazzlab Sax Holder. It takes most of the weight off your neck and thumb. Also, there is a stand by Hercules that holds the sax at face height. I use that for long practice sessions and the Sax Holder for gigs.
I like it .am a saxo player.i realy enjoy ur moments
Good job you are doing good keep up the good work
hi can i have the links on where you see the tutorial for beginners? thanks
So ein tolles und lehrreiches Video! Man sieht welchen Spaß du an der jeweiligen Challenge hast. Ich bewundere dein großes musikalisches Talent und bin auf das Ergebnis gespannt. 👍
Danke schön für die lieben Worte ♥️
Wieder ein schönes und amüsantes Video :) Ich bekomme jedes Mal Lust, selbst ein neues Instrument zu lernen!
Oh wie toll! Das freut mich sehr :)
That little pearl in-between your first and second finger is called the bis key, if you move your first finger down a bit so your pressing the first pearl and the bis key at the same time and leave all other pads open it's another alternate fingering for Bb, and that one comes in handy when your playing a piece with Bb in the key signature for example concert Ab has Bb in the key signature and it just makes it so your don't have to think abt it as much, it allows me to play faster too, and at least on my horn (cannonball vintage reborn series) that Bb fingering is the most in tune for me since every different fingering for Bb whether you realise it or not is a little more flat or a little more sharp than the last one the other ones
Lmao I didn't watch farther I the video before commenting that to realise that she used the bis key lol
Anybody know the name of the song, played at 14:37 ? Sounds very calming.
...good video 😀
8:09 I think you mean lip augmentation.
By the way, I seriously hope you are not going to have a sore lower lip. Your lower lip could hurt very much and/ or bleed when you play the saxophone.
Really enjoy this video. Keep up the good work.
lip injection, lip fillers, lip augmentation,..I think it has more than one name 🙈
Really happy you enjoyed the video ☺️ Thank you!!
I think she meant it felt weird as in the reed vibrating made her lip feel weird i remember when I first started to play my lips felt weird bit I got used to it
Nice introduction and helpful tips! 🤐
Loved the Simpson’s part!
How do you fix your neck strap clip broke but I put it back no I mean the adjuster part
I love instrument i wish i can also play saxophone but i first need saxophen haha
Great Job on sax instructions
Thank you :)
Happy new year💗💗💗
HAPPY NEW YEAR!! 💥✨
Wie du das immer machst 😍
Grandios! Sowohl der Mix aus humorvollem und wissensvermittelndem Content, als auch deine unfassbare Musikalität!
Dicker Daumen hoch! 👍🏻
ah danke schön!! ❤️ Das bedeutet mir viel :)
Definitely gonna ask if I could change my instrument. I have a trombone which is too hard for me to play. So I’m playing on switching to a saxophone
the white on the mouth piece is normal, you can buy a pad to place on the mouth piece to keep the scratching from happening
How do you get these challenges?
I just got a sax. Your video is encouraging.
Great job. What type/brand is the saxophone? How long have you been playing for? What got you interested in it? Do you own it? Do you plan on making more videos with it?
Hey! Did you watch the video? ☺️ I answer pretty much all of your questions in the video. You can find the link to the saxophone in the infobox..
Sorry didn't read the info box. Will you play it again
My lips is on fire, which means I'm gonna take a break now and show you my hometown. Lol you are so funny.
@NicoleMilik, please teach how to really learn Saxophone in 3days. I would love to, my favourite instrument! I can’t wait to get one❤️
So I just got a alto saxophone and I play the clarinet. And I need help with my emboture and notes
thx for your video! i play the saxophone too :)
What a delightful creature you are.x
As a saxophone and clarinet player, 4:55 gave me a heart attack. I have never seen this in my life.
I play saxophone alto and I am into playing jazz music for alto saxophone. My name is Jim and I love the alto saxophone.
Her tone is surprisingly good for a beginner
For Bb there are 3 ways to play it. Button Bb, you use your first finger to push down the B key and the button key at the same time. Side key Bb, play an A and then sharpen it with the lowest right hand palm key. Long Bb, (people who also play the flute like this one) first finger down on each hand. I hope this helps, you’ve done really well in a short space of time. 🎷
So beautiful
My saxophone arrived yesterday and I am also a beginner. I'm very happy to watch your video, I can't hear the sound. Hahahahaha
Wow Vvvvv niCE 👍👌👌👌👌👌🎷🎷🎷🎷
love your vidz
