Same im glad that when i was alto i was just vibing well with everyone usually quiet until someone asked me a question or i asked someone a question i just was there
I fall in these gategories and i play my saxophone for 3 years i think this is becuase of covid becuase i have a teacher and i learned the saxophone in the school
Who cares? If they are learning music then its a good thing. Dont get me wrong if they dont play good you should correct them but still, music is for everyonez
I can’t help it- when I first learned vibrato my teacher told me to just do it all of the time to get better at it and now I can’t even tell if I’m doing it or not 😭
I used to have a peer in band on alto that would play careless whisper every single second he got. Band director just stopped talking? Plays careless whisper, done with a song? plays careless whisper, you breath? plays careless whisper. idk if he was tryna rizz someone up, but I about took his sax a couple times lol
I'm all of those but I played bass clarinet. once I started playing tenor I just got worse. but never played alto. haha. the guitar and I just jam all the time he's a Jr & I'm a freshmen so it's was the coolest thing when I showed up haha
in my school we have 5 sax players. this is how it goes, 1st chair - "im better than all of you" (he plays robotically), 2nd chair - "im louder than you" (she is literally the voice of the 1st altos, 3rd chair - "idk" (he plays so quiet sometimes i gotta wonder wheres at in the music), 4th chair - "too much" (I play too many instruments and sax being my main, im only 2nd alto most songs but im the one to not practice and still sound decent.), 5th chair - "noob" (he is new at band stuff but hes improved dramatically)
Abou dynamical type, I agree.. but there's the thing - those saxophonists that always complains about anything louder can't themselves play louder when they have to. That's usually the thing.
Well, ive peen "playing" the clarinet for a few months, just bought an old Alto sax off ebay, and when it arrives, i Will be playing careless whisper...right after Baker street 🤷🤣 Love you videos Frankie 👏🎷
Pov me a clarinet player who's just put their clarinet away after playing carless whisper for 30 minutes straight trying to perfect it to impress the saxophone players
I'm a professional saxophonist. Just like every other professional musician I'll play exactly what somebody wants me to play in the style they want me to play it because if I don't, I don't eat. And yes if I get paid to do it I'll play Kenny G all day long. And I do.
I used to be the third one. My director threatened to put up a “careless whisper free zone” sign in the band room and he gave me ideas of other things to play. He recommended Never Gonna Give You Up and I started playing it and he whispered to someone “I taught her that.” It was really funny and i ended up obnoxiously squeaking lol
the only reason i know how to play Carless Whisper is cause one of my guy friends wanted to ask out their crush and asked me to play it if/when she said yes lmao 😂 proud sax moment ngl
Bro, you nailed it 😂 I had to contend with a tryhard (loved the guy, but man he was sweaty) who was #1 exactly as you portrayed em, lol. He loved to challenge me for first chair, but thankfully such was a test of skill and never “how quickly can I split this reed or split my tongue in half on it” 😂
Alto is king!!! My most recent classical "teacher" HATED that I mimicked Marcel Mule. Idk why I let him change and ruin my playing, but that's a different story for a different time.😅😅😅
There is this one guy in my band class(highschool) he’s really good but he is literally all 3 of these of these stereotypes and everyone hates him because of how much he does these things
Idk if I sound stupid but did I hear evangelion cello music from SHINJI!!! And I also started tenor saxaphone so yay Edit: nope it’s fly me to the moon which is the closing for evangelion
Bro I swear whenever I practice flute and some random other flute player starts playing the exact same phrase worse AND louder so I can’t hear myself play makes me wanna snap my yamaha in half
In middle school it was only me and this other player and omg…THIS PERSON WOULD ALWAYS BLAST OVER ME. Even at concerts. (He was bad and didn’t even tongue notes.) anyways he left band and I’m happy 💪🐺
I've encountered all three of these kinds of players, and been all three of them before. I always knew about the concept of "serving the song" but it took me a lot longer to actually put it in practice. In the end its about saving the flashy stuff for a big moment, because that will make way more special!
You forgot “Scoops literally every single note”
Ohhhhh my fricken goodness yes! It’s so annoying!
What means "scoop" in this context? (Asking as a none native speaker.)
@@ArglArgl it's when you start lower than the note you're trying to play
kinda like a mini glissando
The second alto in my jazz band cannot play a single dang note without scooping. And I'm not even joking. EVERY. SINGLE. NOTE.
It's me
I’m proud I don’t fall under any of these categories
Let’s gooo😂🔥
I'm a bassist too!
Same im glad that when i was alto i was just vibing well with everyone usually quiet until someone asked me a question or i asked someone a question i just was there
I’m proud I don’t fall under any of these categories. I fall under all of them
I fall in these gategories and i play my saxophone for 3 years i think this is becuase of covid becuase i have a teacher and i learned the saxophone in the school
the 4th type of annoying alto player is the one who joins band because they don’t want to do another elective. 🤦🏽♀️ 😂
The fact that this video is over a year old and he still liked this comment i nuts
Way too many people like that in my school
Well people do that with ither instruments not just altos
I only joined band so i could play careless Whisper, don't get me wrong i still love band
Who cares? If they are learning music then its a good thing. Dont get me wrong if they dont play good you should correct them but still, music is for everyonez
I swear, every time I take out my saxophone in a room with people I get asked Do yOu knOW ThE LoVE song.
i love that they call it the love song, it's literally about cheating and how he feels like he will never find love again 😂
Then just dont take it out in a room with people
Same except fpr me it's "CAN U PLAY THAT SONG THAT GOES LIEK DUH MUH NUH NUH NEHH DUH NUH NUH
@@EveryDayImSufferinBUHNUHNEHNUHi died looking at that comment😂😂😂
What is the song in the “never enough vibrato”?
The one who has horrible tone and only plays meme songs in class because they dont wanna be there 😭
And I always have to sit next to them 😭
And the percussionist who beat their instruments to death before class 😭😭😭
you forgot, “slaps every note/most rough articulation ive ever heard”, as well as “purposefully makes the saxophone sound like a fog horn.”
2 and 3 basically covered “that lead alto” that always finishes your phrases because they have perfect pitch.
Us relative pitch players can also☝️🤓
Literally all of the kids besides me, as an alto player there is ALWAYS another kid who fits the first one . No matter WHAT.
every saxophone player has been through these phases
I’m always the dude that has too much vibrato or too little vibrato 💀
I can’t help it- when I first learned vibrato my teacher told me to just do it all of the time to get better at it and now I can’t even tell if I’m doing it or not 😭
This is why I play bari sax
What’s the difference
its beeg, deep, and CHONK
@@Catdge It IS CHONKKKKK
I do both.
I play bari too!
As a trombone player I approve of this video
as a fellow trombone player I approve of this comment
@@Crossboness As a fellow trombone player I approve of this reply
As a BASS trombone i proudly approve too
As a BASS trombone player I proudly approve too
Hey, I wanna join, as a fellow brass player I approve too
Careless Whisper is all anyone wants from you! Give us what we want!
I used to have a peer in band on alto that would play careless whisper every single second he got. Band director just stopped talking? Plays careless whisper, done with a song? plays careless whisper, you breath? plays careless whisper. idk if he was tryna rizz someone up, but I about took his sax a couple times lol
Omg same! Lol
That might have been me. But I promise I am better now lol. That was just a phase.
Been playing for 20 years (mostly in concert bands)
Only ever played careless whisper last year 😅
I'm all of those but I played bass clarinet. once I started playing tenor I just got worse. but never played alto. haha. the guitar and I just jam all the time he's a Jr & I'm a freshmen so it's was the coolest thing when I showed up haha

I'm a good alto saxophone player an I do tend to play loud but I have asthma so it makes it harder for me to control how loud I am playing
Robot so mad he disassembled his saxophone that's crazy
as a tenor sax player I can say wholeheartedly this is accurate
Im learning the alto saxophone in band class, and I can’t hold it 😭😭
The one who blames you when the band teacher hears a mistake 💀
This accurately describes the Tenor Sax section better for the band I’m in
Fr
as a tenor sax player i can confirm this is true😅
i do all three but im not known for it, im known for being the reckless jazz improv guy
I know two altos who are both the epitome of I can play careless whisper. Both good friends, but it gets a bit old.
I feel like theirs always one person that fills the category of number one almost no matter what.
I’m SOO happy I don’t fall under. Any of these 🎷
Bro there is one kid in my band class that ALWAYS be playing careless whisper and I’m like “shut up 😭”
Then the Bari comes and scares the alto 😂
#2 always drove me crazy when I would play with a particular big band years ago with lots of older players.
Literally every sax player i know is the careless whisper lol
I’m not even in alto section, clarinet player, and I know if these. Our alto section was huge. The other type we had was I can play under the sea
Well, ive peen "playing" the clarinet for a few months, just bought an old Alto sax off ebay, and when it arrives, i Will be playing careless whisper...right after Baker street 🤷🤣
Love you videos Frankie 👏🎷
I used to be number 3, but on Clarinet
😂😂😂
I strive to be number 3 on the clarinet because why not
As a tenor player, I understand the annoyment when altos play careless whisper, like, WE GET THAT YOU CAN PLAY THAT
I'm guilty of careless whisper... luckily, only once in a while.
Fly me to the moon always sounds good
Very good video! Hey, you could try playing the saxophone on the street, the videos on the street get a lot of views ^ _ ^
PD: Sorry for my English XD
Thank you!! Hmmm that could be fun!!
I'm proud I fall under every one of these categories
You forgot the one who can't stop squeeking and the one who makes fun of you for when your cheeks puff out.
Pov me a clarinet player who's just put their clarinet away after playing carless whisper for 30 minutes straight trying to perfect it to impress the saxophone players
There this one boy in my band class and he doesn’t even pay attention he’s always staring at me and beating his head on the saxophone 🎷
Me, who plays clarinet and has exhibited all of these behaviors;
I prefer no vibrato and a lot of people think I'm weird for that
I also play an instrument that spends time below bass clef but ignore that
I'm a professional saxophonist. Just like every other professional musician I'll play exactly what somebody wants me to play in the style they want me to play it because if I don't, I don't eat.
And yes if I get paid to do it I'll play Kenny G all day long. And I do.
I used to be the third one. My director threatened to put up a “careless whisper free zone” sign in the band room and he gave me ideas of other things to play. He recommended Never Gonna Give You Up and I started playing it and he whispered to someone “I taught her that.” It was really funny and i ended up obnoxiously squeaking lol
i join alto saxophone is because of careless whisper
And the saxophone that plays so loud even as a background
“Never enough vibrato” is my favorite type of horn player.
the only reason i know how to play Carless Whisper is cause one of my guy friends wanted to ask out their crush and asked me to play it if/when she said yes lmao 😂
proud sax moment ngl
I strongly feel this as a tenor sax player😂😂😅
As a alto player I Approve and I hate when people from my class want to join because they always play too loud
And this is why i decided to learn bari sax with flute
Bro, you nailed it 😂 I had to contend with a tryhard (loved the guy, but man he was sweaty) who was #1 exactly as you portrayed em, lol. He loved to challenge me for first chair, but thankfully such was a test of skill and never “how quickly can I split this reed or split my tongue in half on it” 😂
Im 3. My band teacher is genuinely tired of it so he started giving me F's for participation score everytime i play it 😂
As an alto player I can confirm this
I am just now learning how to play saxophone
As an alto, My section has at least of 2 of all these
I finally left the alto section and joined the tenors
I feel slightly called out on that last one
Alto is king!!! My most recent classical "teacher" HATED that I mimicked Marcel Mule. Idk why I let him change and ruin my playing, but that's a different story for a different time.😅😅😅
i proudly say i fall under 3 😅
In my 2 first years i thot that playing loud is a big thing in playing the saxophone but now i saw how stupid i was😂
Im the "i Play as quiet as i can so Nobody Hears me "😂
I love your vids I'm in middle school I play clarinet and I want to move to sax but your vids are great keep up the great work
Breath after every quarter note lol
This is one of those times where i only mention playing bari...
Btw the second song they played was fly me to the moon by Frank Sinatra
I can play careless whisper and I’m an alto sax but I don’t shove it into peoples face😭
But the vibrato sounds better in that second clip can’t lie 😩
There is this one guy in my band class(highschool) he’s really good but he is literally all 3 of these of these stereotypes and everyone hates him because of how much he does these things
You forgot the “how many notes can I fit into one measure” solo guy🤣
Just because I CAN play Careless Whisper doesn’t mean I want to, even when I have to…
As a bassoonist, I would be number 2 IF I COULD DO VIBRATO
Idk if I sound stupid but did I hear evangelion cello music from SHINJI!!!
And I also started tenor saxaphone so yay
Edit: nope it’s fly me to the moon which is the closing for evangelion
Careless whisperer should be the forbidden riff of saxophone players
Bro I swear whenever I practice flute and some random other flute player starts playing the exact same phrase worse AND louder so I can’t hear myself play makes me wanna snap my yamaha in half
I am a alto player and I can also play careless whisper on the alto saxophone
You forgot the every single time we practice you sound bad “but it’s because they’re reed snapped”
I’m an alto but like every one who plays alto at least at my school is like this. Especially playing careless whisper.
I used to play trumpet but now I do alto saxophone and I have to blend with the flutes and clarinets because I’m to loud if I don’t
You forgot constantly growling and bending lol
The only time i will say im a bari sax player
The people saying that they don’t fall under any of these categories just don’t realize they are one
For me, they always play either careless whisper or megalovania
What about, "always plays the same song over and over again and misses every accidental" 😂 I'm glad I play tenor lol
When the saxophones in my class try to play rlly loud I play really loud(I’m a trombone player)
So I guess "jumps in and finishes whatever piece you're playing" is just a given! 😂
As someone said the 4th anoyyijg one is when they join band bc they don’t wanna do anything else.
The 5th one is when they just play loud all the time
I am the only tenor in my band and I get singled out because I play with the trumbones and they play so quiet 😂
I literally am trying so hard to play Careless whisper I just don't have the time 😭 Plus I play Tenor not Alto
The 3rd one is so funny cuz my friend always does it secretly (cuz he always play it everytime we see him in band class)
As a tenor player that sits next to altos all the time I can easily say that these are all facts
In middle school it was only me and this other player and omg…THIS PERSON WOULD ALWAYS BLAST OVER ME. Even at concerts. (He was bad and didn’t even tongue notes.) anyways he left band and I’m happy 💪🐺
The "Never use 1 note when 36 will do"
I've encountered all three of these kinds of players, and been all three of them before. I always knew about the concept of "serving the song" but it took me a lot longer to actually put it in practice. In the end its about saving the flashy stuff for a big moment, because that will make way more special!
Alto players are the best..
Am a lover of my altp baby ❤😂
Im the one who just pretends to play because i cant read the notes yet 🥲💀
Hey I also play the saxophone and someone always trys to play louder than me its so true
As a tubist I can gladly say that I dont fall under any of these categories
