Do you really mean “Jesus Take The Wheel”
I’ve been to multiple different colleges the number of college professors in community colleges who think they’re in a high school of 45 year-old people who expect you to listen to them like their drill sergeant like they have even the right to comment on something you’re doing that isn’t disrupting the class, but who also expect each and every member of the class to be interested or care about what they are not gonna get us a grade is so wild. I’m a military vet. I’m learning for fun. I can give a fuck about your rules. You’re gonna take points off for nothing if you spend 45 minutes of our 50 minutes rambling on on your soapbox you should not get paid so far I’ve had two male teachers who seem to have some kind of a little boy complex where they want to control people, last semester was some idiot from California who had no idea where he was or what he was doing fired this semester and now the douche bag trying to teach me psychology who claims has 25 years of teaching experience, but this guy is behaving like he’s had 20 minutes of experience
Great production!!! 👏🏻

I'm a beginner at 66 I just want to know I have John Paul as400 with the beginner mouthpiece is that sufficient I'm having hard time with the armature and keeping a nice sound
Kudos to you on starting the sax! I’m not familiar with the John Paul. Is that a sax brand? Assuming the sax is well adjusted, new saxes often come with terrible mouthpieces. A good all around mouthpiece is the Selmer C*. Try it with a 2.5 Vandoren Reed. Some of the off brand reeds are cheap but terrible. I’d try a Reed first as that’s the cheapest solution. Also a lesson with a local person if possible.
👍
Bravo💪
Thank you
Thank you. I wish that I could have been there.❤
Grazie🙏

Good energy!!
Thank you
I sounded like the traditional Bombay taxi horn on my alto. I have not actually heard this taxi horn but a honking goose is also appropriate. So I switched to a Keilwerth alto but this made no difference to the sound. I have tried cheap Chinese reeds, Rico orange box reeds and Vandoren but there did not seem to be any noticeable difference to the horrible sound. You illustrate the position of mouthpiece and that particular position where the mouthpiece was at the point of minimum insertion produced the sound to end all sounds. This was intensely sophisticated or as the British would say “posh” and having heard this sound there can for me be absolutely no other. Please, please would you produce a video exclusively devoted to the production of this most elegantly smooth, soft and velvety sound and as far as I have been able to find out, something exclusive to you and your playing. Also do give details of the reed hardness, and mouthpiece type and all other relevant details and thank you, thank you most sincerely.
I like to use a Couf Artist 4* mouthpiece with a 2.5 Vandoren Reed. However, Reed strength is going to be very personal. Too hard and you can’t play low notes. Too soft and you get a dull sound.
good advice
If you go to McDonald's don't have high expectations. It's fast food for a reason
But even fast food can be done well. Chipotle is fast food and they do an excellent job.
It’s crazy how most people don’t realize this
You’re right
At 212 water boils, with boiling water comes steam. And with steam you can power a train
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. PSALM 119:105 The more we know God, the greater is our capability to love Him.
Amen!
Your videos are really awesome and very good quality very nice I really enjoy watching your videos. But there is a little problem with your video, you should do SEO, if you do SEO, your video views and engagement will increase, likes, comments, and subscriptions will increase gradually. If you have less idea about this, you can tell me and I will help you.
Thanks for the tips!
I never thought of you as a heal. I've always considered you to be a really nice guy.😊
😂
Do you have a video on the production of the jazz subtone on alto using a double lip embouchure with mention of the mouthpiece and reed most suited for this/
No, sorry
Wise words from a wise man
Facts
Nice👍
I'm a fan of LD as well! Very poignant rendition! Love it!
thought it was a rickroll lol
😂 He and I were born the same year
Lol
Never
For some that’s true
Mom and I are getting close to making the decision to get married.😂
You’re too funny!
Try it people! It really works! I start with 5 minutes!
Well, your fingers are almost like toes except their just a bit longer. If you can't touch your fingers, then you are in real trouble.
Haha
I dont think god wanted you to be so inflexible
I think you’re right! Although I walk or run 7 miles a day, I’ve always been bad about stretching.
Try stretching

You can argue whether he exists or not, idc, but what CAN'T be argued is the poor planning down on us if we were created. Who thought waste disposal and reproduction being smashed in next to each other was a good idea?
If you want an even better example, look up the recurrent laryngeal nerve in giraffes.
Imagine a vase complaining that the potter made it the wrong shape 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Do you have a better design? When you think about the intricacy of our design and how everything works together, I don’t see how we could think there’s not a Designer behind all that. When created, it was a perfect world. With sin and evil, it’s not perfect. But perfection will be returning someday.
@@Whatisthis438 If a vase could talk, you can bet they'd discuss whether they were made right. Especially if their potter is a toddler who tends to throw tantrums
Are you making an excuse to be fat?
Um i can touch my toes
I can too. It’s mostly a dad joke.
God didn't make you fat you did. That's the only reason you can't touch your toes
I love this song! And the Divine Sax version is even better!
