- Paganini Caprice no.24 on Baritone Saxophone
Baritone saxophone : Maxime Bazerque
Music video director : Etienne Vaillend
5 years ago, I played Paganini Caprice at the Halle aux grains in Toulouse. It was the beginning of a new life in the Conservatoire de Paris. Today, I’m finishing my studies at this school and I need to think about my artistic inspirations. This video marks the end of an era and the beginning of a new, with an artistic freedom.
It’s a contemporary vision of Paganini which is not inspired by violin version. I tried to keep the spirit of the work and the virtuosity of the original instrument, but on baritone saxophone. I want to prove that transcription is not a pale copy of a work but a different vision of it, with qualities and defaults. The essence of the piece remains the same but I revisit it with a modern take.
« New Vision Project » is a collaboration with Etienne Vaillend. Through a series of videos, it will try to depict a personal artistic vision. It will include works that have a strong link between one another for me. This project will also show a common vision between video and music. All the works make sense in my personal artistic life and research of an artistic way. It’s a way to discover yourself and understand your own vision of art, with a new vision which tries to break some traditional musical codes.

every bari sax player knows how much talent this took! incredible tone and control!
Haha thanks 🙏
bro i shit myself in the first 5 seconds. Damn!
i got jumpscared by the tonguing in the first 5 seconds
It's practice , a lot of hard practice , talent it's just like fast learning
A lot. that is a fact.
It is really a damn shame that saxophones are the “black sheep” of the woodwinds, especially in “”professional”” orchestral settings. They are so overlooked and maligned yet have amazing capacity for virtuosity and emotion alike, like you have displayed. Bravo!
Thank you 😊
It's people like this that we need more of to change that perception. It took decades even centuries for instruments to earn their place. The saxophone has done well.
This is very illuminating: ua-cam.com/video/BsfPS7pXg1E/v-deo.html
fuck saxophones worst instruments out there
It literally sounds like you’re seamlessly switching between an alto, tenor, and bari. So incredible
The level of control in the high register is absolutely fantastic! It would make Sigurd Rascher proud! 🎷
Thanks 🙏
I have never seen this kind of control on saxophone. Incredible!
Thank you !! 😊🙏
I would definitely pay to come and listen to an entire concert featuring you.
Oh thank you ☺️
Just one of the best performances on baritone sax i've ever heard. Thanks, i really enjoyed it!
Thank you 🙏🙏
I think baritone sax is the "Magnum Opus" of saxophones and possibly even woodwinds altogether. It's big enough to hit impactful lows and keep rhythm but just small enough to have altissimo with extreme clarity (given someone can control it). A truly versatile and beautiful instrument.
Fantastic performance, sir!

One of the cleanest tones in a bari Sax I’ve ever heard. What’s your setup?
Thank you so much ! Saxophone Selmer série II, Selmer s90 200 mouthpiece, ligature JLV, Vandoren 3 reeds 😊
Do you work the reeds? What kind of facing is that S90? 3 sounds soft if you're going to do any work to it.
Really dug the slap tongue. Mostly clean run. Good job!
First thing I noticed was the super clean upper register at the beginning.
@@itsmikehaydensince the Selmer 90 200 mouthpiece opening is bigger, he might use a softer reed
@@justapersonscrollingby753 then again, everyone is so worried about getting to (let's face it - blue box) 3.5s that we can be closed minded about simple preferences. At least in the classical world. Interested if jazz players bother to be uppity about reed strength
What an amazing performance! The beauty of your tone is just amazing. The altissimo parts are played with such sweetness and clarity yet the low A notes strikes with huge power and depth. Your technique is brilliant and all that with great artistry and creativity. A true virtuoso.
Waouh thank you for your comment !! I work hard to share the best quality, so your comments are importants 🙏😊
@@maximebazerque-baritonesax6198 Merci, j` damires beaucoup ton travail et ton talent. Mes bonjours de Pologne, tu m` inspire a aller plus loin avec mon saxophone.
Literally such a smooth tone I nearly mistake it for a horn at some points, so cool to hear!
Great job playing 2 octaves at the same time. I don't think I ever could do that on my alto! :)
he is singing the other. the "original" is for alto. raaf hekkema transcribed it for himself.
Wow that was amazing. comes to show how saxophone can be a classical instrument, not just for jazz.
Yeah so true !
sad how modern orchestras reject it even though it was intended to be used in orchestras

_Great playing!_
Your know-how on bari-sax is just
*magnificent*
Congratulations from BraSil.
The main reason for lack of saxophone in the classical genre, is the pitch of the available saxophones; there are no quality saxophones in the Concert key of C, only in Bb and Eb. Bb and Eb saxes are more suited for marching bands, not classical orchestra. Thus the saxophone family is missing a melodic centre, which is important in composing for a family of instruments.
I love how you found a saxophone way to interpret double stops and pizzicato. Fantastic!
This just reminded me why the bari is my favorite instrument. Playing it is a dream of mine I am yet to achieve.
Yeah best instrument !!!
That slap tounging though. Respect, man.
Haha thanks! 😊
i like this version a lot it sounds really good in c minor good job
Thanks 🙏
The absolute beauty of this , it deserves to be seen by saxophone players everywhere , and you deserve not only my subscription , but many , many more
Thank you so much ! 😊
Wow, the high notes were great!
Thank you 🙏
I can't comprehend the amount of practice this took. Man really nice playing bro.
This guy is like a god in my eyes… I’ve been playing baritone for almost 10 years practicing like a maniac and I haven’t been able to have a single speck of the control this man has over his register… he’s just amazing in my humble opinion
Wonderful ! What a great know how we have now for the saxophone !
Thank you 🙏
That upper register just sounds sounds so good.
Thanks 🙏
Videos like this make me really love my instrument
Thanks 🙏
Amazing virtuosity! Loved the concurrent singing and playing!
espectacular, mucho virtusismo del parte de musico....saludos Maxime bazerque desde Andacollo, Chile
Very nice work. Your altissimo tone was crystal clear.
Congratulations from Brazil. Amazing sound. The best I have ever heard. I have played baritone sax for 10 years, but I have not played more.
Oh thank you, that’s very kind!
Excellent performance. You are a great saxophonist, lots of congratulations.
Thank you 🙏
To display a big range of overtones flagiolettes is a sign of great skill! It also helps to understand the greatness of baritone in form of tonal depth and contrast.
Amazing! Bravo!!!
Amazing playing!!!! I come to this video multiple times a day, shows how much I need to do as a player myself. The best saxophone I've played was a serie III but I have never played a II. In your opinion, which is better as I want to get my own professional tenor.
Thank you 🙏 I can’t choose for you, you have to try multiple instruments ! But I use a série II for my Baritone sax
Damn! that multiphonics control makes you a Devil's Saxophonist as much as Paganini was a Devil's Violinist. Awesome!
Wow...well done sir!!!
I played bari in high school...brings back memories!
Uaaaaalllll 👏😯 Incrível! Parabéns Belo Som!!! Bela Interpretação
Thank you Arthur ! 😊
@@maximebazerque-baritonesax6198 Oi Maxime! Tudo Bem? Você me enviaria a Partitura? Gostaria de estudar essa música
i nearly died playing this, its basically doing exercise playing this on the baritone
That tone is woah.
Oh my goodness!!! I have been recently taking bari sax up again after many years playing tenor and I am blown away at the control you have over your tone, technique and especially the dynamics. Simply amazing!!!! Thanks for posting....it is so inspiring to hear and see this!
Wow! Smooth like cello.
I used to play the Barisax and this is making me miss it even more
simplement , fantastique . Parabens , felicitations , congratulations .
Fantastic! A true berserker on the horn!
Beautiful sound!It's great to hear a different approach to playing the baritone.
je suis née aussi avec le nom de famille Bazerque et c'est pour cela que je suis allée regarder sur you tube....tout simplement émouvant , sublime et envoutant .. un grand merci pour ce partage ....j'attends avec impatience de pouvoir vous entendre dans une salle .....salut (petit cousin....) à très bientot et encore bravo

Actually at first i couldn't believe that he could play it. Because people even can't play it on violin. But then i thought how can make a playback without a record someone playing it. Haha. A true hard work and talent. Perfect. Thank you for letting us listening this beautiful piece on sax♡
