    This has to be the most beautiful alto sax I have ever heard in my life, I am a saxophone major, and I wish I can sound as crystal clear as you do. Whatever you do, keep playing saxophone!

  • @reyherrera3427
    @reyherrera3427 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    how do you do the gliss in the beginning of the song to the altísimo a from the high F. the gliss sounds like he scooped upwards

    • @BrianKachur
      @BrianKachur 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +REY HERRERA yeah it's the use of the throat/oral cavity in addition to the fingerings. He does scoop up to it with a combination of throat voicing with most likely a gliss of sorts with his fingerings.

    May I ask where can I purchase this version of Chaconne? Thank you and well done!!!

    • @dougoconnor
      @dougoconnor 11 ปีที่แล้ว

      RasenLu, thank you for your compliments. I have not, unfortunately, bothered to write it down. For the most part I've learned it from the violin score and made my decisions while practicing it about how to approach multiple stops, etc. You are certainly not the first to ask, however, so I will try and get on publishing my version. I think what's holding me back is trying to make it more appropriate with the ornaments: I had a lesson with Kris Bezuidenhout on this piece and he had some brilliant ideas which I haven't really had a chance to fully realize yet. Check out Skip Sempe's Chaconne on iTunes or elsewhere for an incredible example. Cheers, Doug

      Doug O'Connor Oh, that's awesome! Hope you all the best to you! It's very impressive that since listened your "Jungle", that kind leaded me actually into a new level of view. Also I will go for this year adolphe saxophone competition. deep appreciate!! Can I ask what mouthpiece, ligature and reeds that you use? thank you.
