Yeah a lot of people would just call this "playing modern" or "playing out/outside" (as opposed to inside). But as you can see from my analysis, he's quite inside for the vast majority, just using very sophisticated modern note choices. You will find other players like Eric Dolphy and Michael Brecker play a lot more chaotically than that, reharmonizing changes on the spot and purposefully creating dissonance on chord changes to achieve a particular effect. You could try transcribing Dolphy on the classic "Blues & The Abstract Truth" album. Straightforward changes on there and he takes it quite far out. Brecker plays a lot of standards and does quite a lot of modern transformation of the changes, but sometimes he plays very straightforward and inside, depending on the context. Plenty of his transcriptions and accompanying analyses out there.

contemporary art is all about making the listener uncomfortable, pushing the boundaries so that they get confused and ask: is this art (music) or isn't it? Then if you persist, you start to go down the rabbit hole of asking questions like: why don't I get it? What is really the difference between music and noise? Does all music have to be pleasant or immediately understandable in order to qualify as music? If music is expressive of the human condition, then what music should humans make that express complex feelings of confusion, alienation, self-doubt, inner turmoil, etc? Hope that helps a little.

yeah good point, it's about risking something real for freshness and surprise!

I wish! But why do you bring up Jaco? The bassline or sound reminds you of him?

@@MaestroSobol I feel that in the saxophone phrases. And I imagine that this is how Jaco's worldview was born.

yeah then got you good huh

Yeah for sure it adds an additional layer of appreciation. That's also one of the benefits of transcribing.

and then influenced an entire generation, RIP indeed

I wasn't aware of who Kazuki Katsuka was until you mentioned him. What's the song you think he quoted Sanborn?

and what a resolution it was

Yes and don't forget to check out my transcription with analysis!

@@MaestroSobolwhere can I find that?

Walter Blanding, name in the video title and description

yes it's the sound quality that matters too doesn't it?

oh really? I'll check it out

Yes exactly and that's why I try to capture as much of the HOW as I can in my transcriptions.

Wowwwwww good ear, well done! And that proves even more so that Blanding was paying tribute to Shorter

@@MaestroSobol Yeeeeeeeeeeah, thank you so much Maestro! Two weeks ago I was listening this wonderful album and so I realized that transition of Virgo had inspired Blanding :D

Glad you think so, many others do too

What do you mean anime boy edit?

@@MaestroSobol😂 what a sentence

That is THE "Texas Tenor" style and sound, and a bridge between Jazz & RnB

Oh yeah that would have been cool, like the NBA player cam

If you check the other comments, you will see that some people believe he made a mistake and some believe it was intentional. I personally think it’s the latter but there are some who won’t be convinced no matter what.

I don’t know what exactly you mean by videos like this one, but I have a number of sax and jazz transcription videos on my channel which you can check out by clicking through.

Some people think it was unintentional, the controversy is quite juicy. Dexter Gordon was a lot more of a straight ahead player. This is 100% a nod to Wayne Shorter’s style, and aptly so as Shorter himself is on the stage for the tribute concert, and the song is his composition.

​@@MaestroSobol Oh, I didn't know Wayne was there. Whether intentional or not, that note certainly created a lot of tension before the release. If it was unintentional, then I would assume this was the case only at the very beginning and that he decided to run with it and make it seem intentional, a strategy that can be a double-edged sword. :) Whatever the case is, he's no slouch.

Nice description

Yeah that's the best part that isn't the music itself

Sure, but this performance was from the early days when it was really fresh to everyone's ears, and a great example of the transition from jazz to RnB as popular music.

@@MaestroSobolYeah, not knocking it, great solo!

The complete concert was taken off the JLCO UA-cam channel several months ago, for reasons unexplained. I had downloaded the entirety but then deleted it after editing the transcription video, then I found I had saved a low quality snippet of only "Teru," which is what you see here.

​@@MaestroSobolSo we're all lucky to watch this! awesome piece..

Indeed. Something special in that moment.

Tell us how you really feel though!

Oh wow I had no idea about this thanks for the tip!
