    The most rich and fat bari tone ive seen yet. Its amazing how you can get such a sound… amazing playing as well

    The Bari is so expressive. I'm on my first sax atm (a student alto), and I reckon I'll be getting a tenor, then a soprano, then a Bari - but my word, I am looking forward to playing one eventually!

      The first time I played Bari I marched it, it was so much fun! Then my junior college had me play it in both concert and jazz band, Its a lot of fun.

      As a bari player, get a bari next. It’s like the best saxophone it feels the most responsive and the closest to an extension of yourself through saxophone I’ve found :)

      Took me six years of looking to find one I could afford. (Less than four figures) Be patient and they do turn up

      Get a Bari first, same transposition, best feel, most different expression, most goofy and unique. I personally went alto, Bari, soprano tenor, but I started on clarinet as my first instrument.

    Jay, thou makest me want to grab a bari: heavenly expressive thou art; so melodically relevant thou carveth thy improvisation that both Harry Carney and Serge Scherloff (sp) smileth with joy while Gerry Mulligan cheereth uncontrollably, so to say! (smile)
    Excellent 👍 performance 👏, champion; very creative and insight ful you are to have used the bari to "Take Five".
    I love it!

    the backround setting matches the awsomeness of the song. One of my favorite songs and even better on which would never happen but here it is, Take 5 on bari sax. I love this channel.

  • @francois9144
    @francois9144 Рік тому +1

    Great sound ! 👍👏👏🎷. Don't you use any neckstrap or harness ? Do you use a specific support for the Bari ? Is it comfortable?

    Is that a low b-flat? Does Yana make those?

    • @stephenwhitney2666
      @stephenwhitney2666 2 роки тому +1

      I think it’s low a, prolly his yanagisawa b-901

    • @gamingmusicmishaps
      @gamingmusicmishaps Рік тому +1

      low A

    • @hxhdfjifzirstc894
      @hxhdfjifzirstc894 11 місяців тому +1

      If you want to figure out if a baritone is low A, note that the bell extends higher, up to the bottom of the neck bow (approximately). If the bell is shorter, it'll be a Low B-flat model. The difference is, they put an extension into the bell, to make it play lower.

    Heh, did we see you geting out of breath there? I've played a bari just once, and I needed at least two more lungs to do the same phrases as on my alto 😄.
