    nice performance! I played "Wings" many years ago and love the references to that piece in this one--but also how the new material is so idiomatic for the saxophone. Tower is a font of creativity

    サックスの音はヴァイオリンの音とチェンジしてもいい音楽になるね。しかし技術的にとても難しい、しかもコンチェルトのソリストパートはヴァイオリンでもとてもとても難しい。あなたのテクニックは素晴らしい。テンポが多少遅くなっても音もリズムもきれいなので音楽の完成度は損なわれていない。指揮者もオーケストラもあなたの演奏を引き立たせるように一生懸命サポートしている。特にクライマックスは素晴らしい。いい演奏聞かせてくれてありがとう!

    I gotta say this high school orchestra is exceptional, as is the saxophonist!!! I'm also practicing mendelssohn rn :) To make it sound this good on a saxophone ... this has definitely humbled me

    extremely well performed ! great compliment -- also very well would sound, if one would play the solo part with an altsaxophone, 1 octave lower ... -- p.s.: in my opitnion, in particular the 1st and 2nd movement (not the 3rd, a pity) are, anyway, two of the most beautiful compositions for solo instrument and orchestra which ever have been written)

    I inadvertently found this by searching on Tchaikovsky saxophone. You really need more views - fantastic work and command of the harmony!

    A wonderful example of the capabilities of classical saxophone! There were some tuning problems in the higher registers, but I appreciate the respect given to the piece in playing the full scored range. Vibrato was consistent but not at all offensive, unlike many players saxophone players who often overcompensate when playing for strings. Emulation of the cello timbre was very enjoyable, especially in the first movement, and parts of 2. movement seemed to use a novel articulation technique? Overall a very nice interpretation from a seeming virtuoso. Are you reading an original cello score or an arrangement for baritone (and if so could you advise as to where it can be found)?

    • @bennettparsonsmusician

      Usually best to read right from the cello score! However, my colleague Nathan Bogert has a version available online as part of his dissertation work: ir.uiowa.edu/etd/2442/
