Nice interview! Please bring Oded Tzur on the show as well to talk on this topic. An ECM jazz artist and a disciple of the legendary Pt. Haripasad Chaurasia, he has developed an incredible technique to adapt the tenor sax to Indian Classical Music. I mean just listen to his tone and you'll know!
As a British-Indian musician, thank you so much for making a video highlighting saxophone in Indian classical music! Perhaps it would be an idea to amend the title to 'Classical Indian music with Saxophonist Jeese..' There are different types Indian music (North Indian, Carnatic, Bollywood, Telegu...) excellent proponents of Carnatic in particular are: Kadri Gopalnath, Rudresh Mahanthappa. A great album worth listening to is John Handy's 'Rainbow', Most of the Indian music I play is Bollywood, but I can attest to the difficulty of notating Indian Classical music, even transcribing Bollywood music can be challenging because of the ornamentation around melodies. Thanks again!
Very inspiring, i liked Indian music for a long time but had no idea for the sax except some stuff by jan Garbarek and john handy. Really great playing and explanations. Thanks a lot for this podcast. 🙏
Very interesting, thank you! And Jesse's tone is amazing, love it! A question (maybe a silly one): I wonder if a Glissonic Glissotar would make a good instrument to play all those microtones?
In the 60's I listened to a lot of Indian classical music (especially Ravi Shankar and Ali Akbar Khan). I really appreciate all that I learned from Indian music. A few years ago I recorded an alto sax improv playing along with a Ravi Shankar raga ua-cam.com/video/i9AiJbgfc3Y/v-deo.html

Thanks for the suggestion. He sounds amazing.
Jesse is a top guy - remember him telling me I 'played like I was singing'... lovely man and great musician!

Really interesting, thanks for doing this video! I really want to try to incorporate some new sounds into my playing.
would the new instrument a "glissonic glissotar" work for this kind of music do you think?
Does anybody know how to get that sweet sitar drone??? Any app for that?
Hi. Dhwani Tampura is a good app for drones. Best wishes. Joel.
