Happy 2023, and best wishes to you too!! Purely as an inexpert observer, I agree with your take on your clarinet and alto tracks. I think you're a little tough on your soprano track though. It sounded great, and that high end vibrato touch reminded me of Kenny G's sound. If you can test your alto playing on a known-good alto sax, that'd tell you more about where you are, versus problems your instrument might be causing.
Hey, thanks for much for your comment and happy 2023! And thank you for the positive feedback on my soprano playing! I guess I've always been quite hard on myself, but I really appreciate hearing that you thought I sounded that good! As for alto, I'm going to do a bit of digging and get to the bottom of what's going on there! Expect a video sometime soon :)
Great videos! I’m a relative newbie to sax as well starting in June 2021 and feel like I encounter similar alto issues to you, so glad I’m not the only one who faces these kind of setbacks! I definitely fall into the category of one of those who can play sax, just now want to focus on playing it well 😅
So nice 😊😊😊😊😊
