@@yaboi-km2qn Jazz is pretty lazy, but some people like it 🤷♂️ Classical takes disciplined practice playing to make up for the modern design, but to me jazz is just honking.
he has the best tone quality i have ever heard on tenor, bari, and any saxophone. sounds like a flute, clarinet, or a stringed instrument most of the time, not a sax. i wouldnt be surprised if major orchestras hired him. he would blend with any instrument in a band or orchestra
The description says he is in the TKWO. He is already principal saxophonist for the Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra the most famous wind orchestra in the world👍
I've been listening live and in recordings, classical saxophone has always sounded like that. Composers and arrangers also separate them from the clarinet. What is impressive are the guys that can do glissando from up top and make it sound like a violinist doing glissando. As far as being hired by orchestra it just depends if they have pieces they are playing that require a saxophone. Ravel comes to mind. They are pretty inflexible and won't sub a sax for clarinet. But chamber music wise, they probably would revoice Cello compositions for him.
That was SO beautiful that I changed to my Bose headphones 🎧 and listened a second time. Each time, a part of my soul released stress and relaxed into a quiet, peaceful place of zen and harmony. Thank you both (musicians) for taking me there. I am smiling.

I want to perform this song some day and have been practicing this song for many months now. now that I'm in college for classical saxophone maybe I can perform it for an audience
yup DVD. it's called "Mastery Clinic for Saxophone". he teaches on tonguing, long tone exercises, running notes, vibrato, portamento and more. i would recommend this to any saxophonist..
Just very beautiful, the music played on tenor saxophone. I'm learning to play tenor saxophone, and I would very much if anyone has this score The Swan, for Tenor Saxophone, please send a private message, I'll be very grateful.
Really Amazing!!! i `d ike to play with this sound!! It seemed to be a Cello.!! i`m from Argentina. Where can i found a DVD of this great artist??. thanks!!!
+Vito la paglia Hmm... I'm sure it is a Selmer S-80C☆. You can see the lump at 0:24. And I bet he uses harrison instead of rico, but I can't clearly say he is.
The funny thing is that, if swans could sing, they would sound like saxophones, though higher-pitched. (Trumpeters sound more like a muted trumpet or somewhere between that and a sax, to my ears anyway.)
I wonder how you're doing now? it's been so many years since I first started playing saxophone, maybe like 6 or 7 years? I'm still no where near this tone, and I've made a lot of significant musical achievements.
tartan11463 Well, it is for me on tenor. But not for me on alto. Or other people on tenor. There's really no best instrument; there's only personal choice.
He sometimes appears in Japanese magazine called "The Sax". The magazine provides us with some information about players on the web (but only available in Japanese).
As much as I love both the saxophone and this piece, I think this performance is lacking in dynamics and vibrato, which are essential components. Nevertheless, his tone is excellent.

I love how saxophone is so versatile, it can sound so rough and jazzy, or smooth like cello
Yeah! But thats is the original idea of Adolphe Sax, to create a real classical instrument… and they make that !

Best version of the swan i heard
darrencjc where did you find this?
His classical tone is really beautiful, just like a woodwind cello.

i don't understand how there can be dislikes for this..
Yes....unbelivable! Perhaps jealous....
Brass players
People who were expecting a live swan
the tempo, the flow
Old comment I know, but they are likely purists who see changing the instrument as "insulting" to the composer
I strive to sound like this as a classical saxophonist.
Same
Amazing tone quality. Nice to hear a classical tenor sound once again.
most beautiful note i have ever heard: 0:38
His sax sound like a viola/cello.
+Paulo Golin tru enuf
It sounds like a viola. His baritone sounds like a cello
Verdade, realmente um som muito aveludado
Yeah, but actually in time
Yes, because that is the original sound of saxophone…
Wow. It sounded almost like a Bassoon was playing it. Beautiful. Such a sweet and rounded sound.
Beautiful delicate vibrato, almost imperceptible.
どうやったらこんな音色になるんや、、美しいこんな音色になりたい
honestly almost made me cry hot amazing it was
この音色参考にしてるのでいろんな曲あげて下さると嬉しいです!!
Sounds just like a cello, beautiful, one of the best!
How???....it's so amazing....gives me the chills
shows how any piece of music, such as this simple piece, can be turned into something beautifull
I love tenor ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

My most favorite Tenor saxophone movie... I love it.
he made his tone sound lik a string instrument.. amazing :)
That's as good as it gets. Bravo!
unbelievable, what a sound! Perfect performance.
Maravilhosa interpretação, parabéns, congratilations...
Excelente interpretación, para una bella pieza musical.
Absolutely beautiful. The Tenor actualy sounds like that Cello. Exceptional. Thank you.
I want to perform this song some day and have been practicing this song for many months now. now that I'm in college for classical saxophone maybe I can perform it for an audience
Oh MA GAWDDDD I WISH I SOUNDED LIKE THIS!!!
lmao :D

Lovely performance, great tone on tenor sax. Cheers from Mexico

Dear lord I love Tanaka
Take notes fellas, your in the presence of a master 😏
I now think my sax teacher is lucky, he took a picture with Yasuto Tanaka.. O_o
yup DVD. it's called "Mastery Clinic for Saxophone". he teaches on tonguing, long tone exercises, running notes, vibrato, portamento and more. i would recommend this to any saxophonist..
Just amazing... it sounds like a chello.!!!!... incredible!!
Beautiful.
simply wonderful, im playing this song for my solo in an event
How’d the solo go?
That... Was Beautiful:)
Beautiful
Gorgeous!!!
Fabuloso!
@carlheanerd i actually think thats a selmer s80. but you're right. equipment isn't nearly important as the player. he sounds incredible
Peter Huang mouthpieces are just as important as the player
Matthew Fry I disagree. A good player could sound good on any decent mouthpiece.
I love sax.. :))) GR8 Music

@venskus2009 the original piece was written for a cello.
Is very good!
Adorei... Simplesmente magnifico! :'D

Yasuto is using Yamaha 62 tenor and Selmer S90… high end classical setup
OH MAH GAWD WHAT IS HIS SAX SETUPP
+Tenor Phone Body:YTS-875EX, MP:Selmer S-80 C☆, Lig:Harrison
+craig m Omg thank you
+Tenor Phone it's a Selmer S90, not sure about the opening.
the ligature is probably a Rico H, the revisitation of the old Harrison lig ;)
+Vito la paglia Ohh... Thanks!
+Vito la paglia Hmm... I'm sure it is a Selmer S-80C☆. You can see the lump at 0:24. And I bet he uses harrison instead of rico, but I can't clearly say he is.
hi, where can I exactly find these musical score of this piece for tenor saxophone and piano? thank you
I bet some people would mistake it for a flute.
If I'm not mistaken, he's using the Custom EX. And the mouthpiece is a s80, though cant really tell which specific size :/
0:39 Just out of curiosity, how much easier is it to play that high E on a tenor sax than on an alto sax?
Personally I found it equally easy on both tenor and alto. It's a bit hard for me on a soprano sad however.
@@frankjuggaloheathen1035 I find that the high D is equally easy on all saxophones (except soprano is hard to get)
High D isn't difficult to hit. It's probably a b*tch to get in tune though.
nice...
The funny thing is that, if swans could sing, they would sound like saxophones, though higher-pitched. (Trumpeters sound more like a muted trumpet or somewhere between that and a sax, to my ears anyway.)
Sound like a Viola +++
where can i find sheet music for this
It is a pleasure YAMAHA-YTS-??-Custom.
what ligature is that?
What is his mouthpiece set up???
What instrument was the piece originally for?
It was written as a cello solo, with a piano accompaniment.
S90 u mean Selmer S-90 rubber ?
how long does it take to be able to make that sound ?
Bender Rodriguez It's just practice with your embouchure and stuff. I've been playing for five years and still can't get a sound like that.
I've been playing for like...a month and I am already learning how to play the full Canon in D minor by Johann Pachelbel.
After some time you will realise playing is not enough. You need to do it beautifully.
I wonder how you're doing now? it's been so many years since I first started playing saxophone, maybe like 6 or 7 years? I'm still no where near this tone, and I've made a lot of significant musical achievements.
Sheet music is needed for this...
musescore.com/user/35537748/scores/6229817
Actually, it sounds like a saxophone. This is what the saxophone was created to sound like.
Classical Saxophonist I mean, not really... it takes over 50 years to get that kind of sound
@dimsimlord no they're not?
@JohnnyLargecock
YAMAHA is the best for tenderness sound
tartan11463 Well, it is for me on tenor. But not for me on alto. Or other people on tenor. There's really no best instrument; there's only personal choice.
I really want this sheet music.
Did u get it I can send it to you
smnsdndn dhs One of my friends composed it for me. Thanks for trying to help though.
@darrencjc i will play you the swan well on bass clarinet and your opinion willl change :D
Very nice, now tell me how to get that tone!!
Joe Guzardo practice
what type of practice? How do you have to place your mouth on your mouthpiece and how do you have to blow the air on your sax?
Bender Rodriguez
want some tips?
qual o seu e-mail?
does anyone know what sax that is?
haha sorry I should have specified. I know its a tenor but i meant the Brand/model of the tenor.
hi, it should be Yamaha YTS-875EX.
He also uses YSS-875EXG, YAS-875EXG and YBS-62II.
Thanks man. Just out of curiosity how did you know?
He sometimes appears in Japanese magazine called "The Sax". The magazine provides us with some information about players on the web (but only available in Japanese).
A Yamaha
@cocacolafresh looks like "Harrison"
I am going to marry this guy, okay? (;
kinda scary ,.. i done this on vibraphone .... now i play tenor sax o.O wierd aint it ?
@chuns00 S90
I'm playing this but on alto
The Candy Narwhal same....... but baritone too:)
Not a very common technique; it sounds beautiful 😁
@dimsimlord your a joke, hes proving you wrong with this ideo
As much as I love both the saxophone and this piece, I think this performance is lacking in dynamics and vibrato, which are essential components. Nevertheless, his tone is excellent.
