Only found her last week but. I have learnt what I have been missing. Candy is fantastic. Never heard anyone play like she does. And I am 56. So I have heard afew. But nothing like Candy. You go Girl.
I got to see her live in person about five years ago now when she was touring the US with Dave Koz. Honestly, she is an amazing sax player, she is unbelievably pretty, and she has a stage presence that is like a rock star. I fell in love almost instantly.
Such big sounds come from that small frame. I love the sax as an instrument, it conveys the spirit of the player as if they were singing. Well done Candy, thank you👏👏👏💖
The first time I heard(saw) this woman play was on MTV in the 80's. Lily was Here was the track and her playing the sax was just mind blowing. The tone, the intonation, the swing of smooth jazz mixed with a pop back rhythm. She was so great at such a young age then. She is still leading, way ahead at the forefront of saxophone.
SOUND IS EVERYTHING. I am an amateur french horn player and I like brass airy sound she produces plus her musicianship, too bad she is not playing Mozart Concerto.... LOVE you CANDY!
I fell in love with Candy when I saw her with Pink Floyd in the 90's..if you haven't seen her on Crazy Diamond live-check her out for a real treat. She was only 21 at the time..amazing talent!! I am so glad to see her here on youtube with her older sax's. World Class talent and beauty.
Excellent! Love her sound. Interestingly and way before this video was released, I bought my alto from Amsterdam Winds (approx 4 years ago). I don't believe they had their 'Free Wind' brand available back then but hey, for such a small, intimate outfit as Amsterdam Winds was back then, I came away a very happy man with my Raw, Unacquered Mauriat Alto complete with Fred LeBayle Metal Jazz chamber mouthpiece. Great people to do business with!! I would/may well go back there when I'm thinking of upgrading however, I'm finding my alto is such an easy sax to play and my LeBayle provides a tone not too dissimilar from Candy Dulfers. I'm a happy man, not looking to upgrade at this time! :D
Candy Dulfer could blow across the top of an empty soda bottle and make it sound great ! I can’t imagine learning to play the saxophone but she makes it look so easy; sounds great 😊!
Everyone always has Selmer blinders on because you've never played or really listened to other options. Go to the Mid-West Clinic or NAMM, play other manufacturers and discover what's out there. Respect to the Mark VI, but the price you pay when you can find one...there are other brand new less expensive options from other manufacturers that have come up with new & better designs and sounds. Ernie Watts (has videos on youtube about what he plays and why), Liebman (designed his own horn with Keilwerth), Mintzer (videos of him of what he switched to and why), Carter (plays everything mostly Conn and P.Mauriat). Most of these guys are at these shows/conventions, talk to them why they don't use their Mark VI's anymore. There are so many amazing options out there, play the instrument yourself, they are all at these conventions. You'd be amazed at what's available.
Her Selmer Mk6 has an upper harmonic partials palette that the horn here doesn’t have. It sounds like a Yamaha which is a fine horn but also lacks that upper overtone palette that vintage Selmer’s have. I own an alto and tenor from both makers and have performed and recorded on both and have gone nuts comparing the two. I love the Yamaha’s because they are modern and simple to adjust, are powerful and have great intonation. But I keep returning to the Selmer’s because my ear just needs that rich overtone palette. I tried various necks and mouthpieces on the Yamaha to try and replicate the Selmer but have failed. I think Candy might not be aware of what’s missing. She plays wonderfully.
THAT is one really great smooth sounding sax. I have been buying a few old Alto's, and a C melody, from the old Elkhart Indiana days - SOME of the tone is great yet they have so many quirks, honks in the low notes and clanks. Lots of room for improvement - it is great to see someone has taken on the challenge laid down so long ago. Do you add the corrosion I see, or is that extra?
This video was made 4 years ago... Candy is one my favorites, she sounds even better now days... as if she needed to improve from 4 years ago BUT I have a question, what mouthpiece and reed strength was she using in this video,,, the reed sounded a little to hard, probably an eight but I am guessing. Original question, what was this mouthpiece. Thanks.
This musician...plays so heavenly..i must..pay attention..to this.great God given...great learn and..hard at work practiced...lovely.. Talent seriously Mrs. Candy Dulfer ...i believe they enjoy your.....music..every where..play on young lady..for life..and death we need your love🙏 ALWAYS❤
Candy has always been one of my favs...and she's all kinds of hot! I picked up sax a few years ago just after I wrote & recorded this tune. Now years later I have gotten a little better and am in the process of re-mixing & re-recording the horn parts on this tune. But for now this is the link to the original version I recorded back then: ua-cam.com/video/D-o--E9ILig/v-deo.html
hi, please tell me, What is this model saxophone? I'm a beginner musician and I have it : john packer jp041 alto. Is this good saxophone? Please tell me
John Packer instruments can have pretty low quality mechanisms, but if you look after it (i.e make sure all the screws/pads aren't slipping, and don't knock or put the instrument down heavily) then it will serve you well for a few years. Intonation on them can be challenging too! If you have a local teacher then they should be able to put you in touch with woodwind repairman/workshop who will sort you out with good second hand instruments which is a better option usually to cheap internet bought instruments.
Dulfer is such a talented musician, it doesn't get any better than this.
Only found her last week but. I have learnt what I have been missing. Candy is fantastic. Never heard anyone play like she does. And I am 56. So I have heard afew. But nothing like Candy. You go Girl.
She's so beautiful, so talented, so skilled at her instrument, such a beautiful singing voice. Very few Candy Dulfers extant in any one lifetime.
I got to see her live in person about five years ago now when she was touring the US with Dave Koz. Honestly, she is an amazing sax player, she is unbelievably pretty, and she has a stage presence that is like a rock star. I fell in love almost instantly.

I just love her since the first sight in the Lily’s clip..she’s amazing ! Full of life.
One of the best people playing sax. I love her unique style
I love you,Candy !! Your music is always great!!!
I love Candy Dulfer, one of the best female PLAYING SAX:
The first time I heard(saw) this woman play was on MTV in the 80's. Lily was Here was the track and her playing the sax was just mind blowing.

Paul Calugaru Same here, I play guitar and saxophone and I'm always taking licks from other instruments and transposing them.
I'm with you, I like to play my guitar along with David Sanborn recordings.

I want to meet you some day, never have i listened to a woman play the Sax and make the notes sing the way you do. thank you

Simply, perfect....
Would like to know the set up on the mouth piece and reed.
Cany I love you so much. I never forget you :)
Love her accent. German? She's just fantastically fantastical as is her band. I don't know why it took me so long to find their music.
Dutch.
I would LOVE to be that saxophone!!
THAT is one really great smooth sounding sax.

Do you add the corrosion I see, or is that extra?
Beautiful
Wow Candy, you never disappoint lol
Candy's sound is wonderful. What's set up using ?
Good music and happy life!
I love the sound of Candy's sax, how can I know more about this sax? Like price and details.
This video was made 4 years ago... Candy is one my favorites, she sounds even better now
days... as if she needed to improve from 4 years ago BUT I have a question, what mouthpiece and reed strength was she using in this video,,, the reed sounded a little to
hard, probably an eight but I am guessing. Original question, what was this mouthpiece.
Thanks.

멋져요. 굿 입니다..
Damnnn i love it
I was here !
What year is your "Free Wind" ? It looks very old and beaten up like a mid 50's MK VI or did they age it for you at the factory?
Große Klasse !!!
I bet she could do the same interview in german also....just amazing...
Candy has always been one of my favs...and she's all kinds of hot!

Qual boquilha ela usa no vídeo?
Guys can you tell me whats the mouthpiece?
Then what brand and model you use?
As a female saxophonist, what lipstick does she use bc mine always comes off on my reeds😂😂
I had the same thought! LOL
Her reed is also covered in lipstick. 1:22
Oh man, sounds great to me! :)
Deberias probar Yamaha 875 Custom EX !!!!
LOVE U

Tell me please, what sax set up use ( sax, chiver, mouthpiece, ligature and reed ).
Thank you very much. Bye, bye Candy
Selmer Mark VI, Inderbienen FreeWind, mouthpiece - Lebayle Studio 8, reed - 2,5 :)
Reeds - Vandoren Jazz
candy als je dit leest : welk mondstuk heb je daar op zitten ?
Cool
Yea OK. I thought it looked a little odd in the other video I saw and doesn't sound quite like I expect from and alto. That explains it.
Thought she was on an Inderbinen for a long time.
Whats that ballad
oohh😍
Thank you! You are so beautifull!!!
Great job/....
Love you Candy!!! Keep swingin & rokkin it up. G Bb C C# D F G
That mouth piece alone is probably worth as much as your Selmer 6!
Definitely not. It's just a Lebayle Studio 7
Yep perfect 😉
Sounds more like a tenor.
Yeah !!
