very nice picks indeed :) But all very heavy tunes. Listening to Coltrane is an everyday inspiration to me. What are you picking out of his playing and using in your own playing?
@@sorenballegaardmusic For Coltrane listening, dexter gordon sounds melodic line closer to me. I feel like, I could develop the dexter gordon solos parts into today's pop songs.
Hi Sergej, i know only a little bit of the Tristano school. As you mentioned - very underrated. What is your recommendation to listen to to get the best view on these players?
Hi Remy, what an excellent question. Maybe I should make a specific video on this. But first the short answer. I basically keep my tongue very close to the mouthpiece to get the fastest tonguing action. Then, as a general rule I articulate the 2nd of two 8th notes. This rule has as many exceptions as notes in the bar. You tongue where you need pressure and accents. The ghosting comes from the tongue almost touching the Reed on the notes not articulated. Practice this ever slowly to get it right. You might want to check my video on articulation on this. Let me know if this is understandable to you :) And please keep asking if not ruclips.net/video/Styz0fujAjE/видео.html Good luck
@@sorenballegaardmusic all explained in your suggested video..(which is one of the best and most rare ones of this most important skill in jazz articulation, and you can bet I've studied most of them, ha..). Thank you very much!
@@rymy3011 thank you again Remy. This helps me really a lot to help you and others to become even better saxophone players. I am glad you like the videos and very glad that I made a clear explanation. Let me know if there is more I can help with. All the best.

A very good and clear explanation. Thanks so much 👍
Thank you Tony. Im glad it is clear, but it is still all cool to ask questions if any.
Is Coltrane one of your heroes too?
🎷🎷 my favorites :
John Coltrane - Mr. P.C. 4.59-6.00 , Cousin Mary (Alternate Take) , Syeeda's Song Flute

Great videos!
I would love to see you do a lesson on the Tristano school (Tristano, Marsh, Turner). This style is very underrated but incredible!
Hi Sergej, i know only a little bit of the Tristano school. As you mentioned - very underrated.
What is your recommendation to listen to to get the best view on these players?
@@sorenballegaardmusic I'd recommend listening to Mark Turner and Gary Foster together along with Tristanos "Line Up"
Can you shaee a chart of up gainst the wall in Eb for alto. I think that's my favorite coltrane blues
Hi TimCrawford.
I do not know the tune - could you post a link to it.
Love to hear it and check it out - then we see what to do :)
@@sorenballegaardmusic Here it is! I transposed it for alto (would be F), but I can't find the chart!

How do you match
syncopation to the
Bebop Scale?
Could you explain a bit?
What do you need?
Playing the bebop scale on the off beats?
How do you mute your notes? What happens to muting and tonguing in general as the speed increases...?
