For those of you who are wondering what sax he plays, I was his student while he was on faculty at columbia university in NYC. He was playing a selmer series III at the time. He also has a great series II that he plays a lot. His mouthpiece set up that he prefers is an s90 with a bay ligature.
If I remember correctly, because I played in this concert, he put it together in just a few days, if that many. So, regardless of which version he played, he still managed to do an excellent job with it. That and Taimur is the cat's PJ's.
@SaxDude1995 he teaches at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. you would have to look up a selmer neck catalog book. there are plenty of them to pick from.
What are you talking about? I never said otherwise. I personally love playing pieces that incorporate both technical and very lyrical parts into them. However, this is a very technically based piece past the opening.
I can tell you so much that you'll get a sound like this out of most of the saxophones out there - if you're good anyway. This is a nice sound, but I have another favorite of mine. He's my teacher at the Conservatoire in Bergen. His name is Renee Wiik, and maybe I'll upload some recordings of him later this year. I've taken masterclasses with Frederick L. Hemke as well, but as a player Renee Wiik is definately Norways best.
it sounds like he's playing a Mark VI, either that or one of the newer Yamahas, I've got a Custom EX Yamaha and it sounds like that, although I don't claim to be able to play like this fella!
That's a ridiculous motto. The audience is never "too impressed", the point of technical pieces is to blow the audience away with your leet skills tbh. He added lots of style and good phrasing into the piece. He is a saxophone professor at NCSA. Get new ears please.
Taimur Sullivan (in my opinion) has the most beautiful sound of any saxophonist out there
He really needs to come out with a solo CD
Such a warm tone.. perfect projection.. he's truly a master..

Also what kind of customizations does Selmer do for necks? Never heard of that done before
There's only like six people in the audience. What's up with that? This dude rocks!
Hi there! May I know whose arrangement is this? It’s a very unique solo, different from Hemke version. Thanks!

Jean Baptiste Arban -- originally as an exercise for Cornet / Trumpet (practicing of double and triple tonguing)
I believe he's the one playing the Albright Sonata on the Prism Quartet's upcoming Albright album.

Dr. McAllister told me personally last September that someone else was recording it for the album. :shrug:
Can I get the sheet music for this anywhere? Please?

SCIDAVE It's a modern Selmer.
Yeah... he definitely plays on a Series III
What kind of gear is Taimur playing on?
Selmer SerieIII
w/ Selmer S90 - 180facing
BG Ligature
and Vandoren 3's
Where did you get this score???
