i am 85 y.o starting back after 68 year break,- only learnt for 12 months- doing the standard long notes,scales,arpeggios etc.Now onto pentatonic scales and find these short explanations and examples very helpful in making practice much more enjoyable . Giving myself 12 months to get those scales and fingering right in my head then I will be subscribing to your courses. Love your fluent playing and its what I am striving to achieve.
wow. You're an inspiration. I'm 68 and never played. I started about 1 year ago, and have been taking private lessons all that time. I'm glad to know there ae other people like me taking up sax later in life. Good luck to you. Fingers crossed you achieve your goals.
@@lumen-saxty-sax hi snakebite - now Heading rapidly to 88 and still putting in a couple practice sessions a day 6 days a week. A long slow repetitive learning process but as I said after a a couple of years finallysounding like a saxophone . Still getting my head around improvisation but have concentrated on reading much quicker and getting up to speed on popular jazz standards..Hang in there it does get easier but like all occupations you never stop learning.
This is excatly what i needed. The quality of your video.. (I´ve said it before and Ill say it again..) is amazing! I´m rehearsing your transscriptions of jazz standards and playing it for my teacher. Autumn leaves intermediate version is THE piece i´m rehearsing at the moment. :-)
Hey Nick! Thanks! Love your channel btw. Hope everything’s ok in Argentina, my wife’s from there, we go back fairly frequently, but it’s been a while of course.
Your tone is just beautiful! Antoher great job in a well structured vid with such a down to earth approach. Thanks for your great work, you have a gift. Keep it up 🎷👍
awesome video, is that possible to provide 12 major ii v I lick or phrase? if have minor and blue scale would be prefect. I definitely will purchase them
This is an example improvisation over a 2 5 1 chord sequence, it’s not really a song. You can get the backing track and sheet music at www.onlinesaxacademy.com

Great!

But how can I start to have my own way to improvise,are there technically talking exercises to use for that?
I would recommend my ‘Learn to improvise course’ here: www.onlinesaxacademy.com/courses

You might think about mentioning the concert key as well as the sax key. I think your examples are in Concert Bb, no?
Hi John, yes that’s right these are in concert Bb major. I think I might add concert key pdf to future videos.
