Hahaha man this was too fun! I have no idea how you are so good at all of these quirky techniques. You could make a shoe string sound incredible. Sucks we could only hang for a little less than 3 hours, but we got 2 videos knocked out! Thanks for the visit Dave it was an honor!!!
Good evening, Mr. Pollack. I'd like to preface my review by stating that jazz is supposed to be serious. A jazz musician isn't allowed to have a sense of humor. You, sir, are degrading the artform with your pesky jokes. With that out of the way, let's proceed: Round 1: - Nathan: his performance was terrible. He sounded out of tempo and the scales didn't fit the notes he was playing. But I suppose jazz is just random noises so I'll give him a B. - Dave: now that is something I can enjoy! Kenny G is one of the only "jazz cats" I like, along with Michael Bublé and Jeff Goldblum. Preach it, brother! A+. Round 2: -Nathan: somebody tell Mr. Nathan to tune his trumpet. How dare he not be able to play wih his mouth-piece upside down! Zero professionalism. F. -Dave: pretty good solo, to be honest. However, the timing was pretty off. Make sure you use a click next time. B. Round 3: -Nathan: again, what pleasure! Mr. G. never ceases to amaze me. Tasty! A+. -Dave: sounds like someone noodling around, like most of jazz anyway. I'm going to listen to some Mozart after this to cleanse my palate. F. Round 4: -Nathan: you need to practice in all twelve keys, loser!!!!! F. -Dave: You're repeating a lot of notes, and as we all know, repetition legitimizes. A. Round 5: -Nathan: too many butter notes. Miles Davids would've kicked you out of his band if he heard this. (I doubt you'll know what I'm talking about; Miles told me this story backstage in a gig we played back in the day). B-. -Dave: Pretty spicy. A.
Both of you guys killed it as usual!! Pretty sure the winner of each round ended up being the person with the less insane challenge haha, see my score below Round 1 - Dave Round 2 - Dave Round 3 - Nate Round 4 - Nate Round 5 - Nate
I lohv how Dave has invited Kenny, his mentor and teacher, to hear him; don't you lohv the invitation? Saxologically speaking, Nathan is really having fun; Dave is comically businesslike. Great idea!
R1: Dave R2: Nathan (For "advanced technique" it was actually good) R3: Dave R4: Nathan. I was very impressed here. He got it so good on the spot. R5: Nathan. Sorry Dave. 😂
Round 1 - Dave - expressive flutters, Round 2-Nathan- a trooper to keep playing with mouthpiece in squeak mode, Round 3 - Dave - smooth swap of hands, Round 4 - Nathan - playing up 1/2 step (would be hard but made it sound easy), Round 5 - a tie - left hand only sounds great and reed dipped in hot sauce - the ultimate burn🔥
Nathan standing there awkwardly while Dave is playing is mood. Also, you are not kidding when you said you are bad with spicy food lmao, Tabasco sauce isn't even that spicy
Nathan - what a 🔥🐕... .. . Overall, it was no contest. Literally, no contest. Anybody willing to battle Dave wins just by showing up. Dave's got skills, but Nathan's got brass. Plus, Dave literally got burned on the last tune. #allthesoundsthatcausepeopletohatejazz
What happened to just great musicians? when did Fools takeover saxophones there's no competition because we all know no one's better than Baptiste so you guys out of just hang it up seriously
@@kingzephyr9897 Not really different since you have to play with all fingers regardless of your strong hand. You need dexterity in every finger. However the low Bb, B, C and Eb are in the right hand so you might find it only slightly easier
Who else do you want to see me take on in this game?? Let me know!!
get the chosen one
Zac Zinger
Chad LB
Ryannnnn
try insaneintherain, hed probably love this

It was definitely too short!! Can’t wait to hang and play/film again. Can’t wait to see the video on your channel 😎
dads
Nathan see Ignatius Farray please, you are the Ignatius of sax hahahaa because the faces you put xd
YES 😂😂😂
“IM OKAY..DO IT FOR THE JAZZ”

why is nathan's swapped hands better than my normal playing
Lol
Literally- Like, what 👁👄👁
all jokes aside this video is so funny we NEED more Saxologic X Dave Pollack collabs

You guys killed it as usual!
OMG this is absolutely incredible 😂😂😂😂 thank you!!!
@@DavePollack haha, thank you! Had a blast watching the video and writing the comment.
Well done. All the subtle allusions to real heckling are brilliant!
Actually he talked about butter notes when he appeared on WIRED
Dave's summoning of the "Chosen One" made me explode with laughter. He wins the whole game because of it. This was hilarious.

No circular breathing when playing like The Chosen One? 251 points from Gryffindor.
I'm like 43% on convincing myself to actually write a paper on this video for this semester
If I do, expect a 15 page 'review' here lol
DO IT!!!
American schools are nonsense
Round 1 - Dave - expressive flutters, Round 2-Nathan- a trooper to keep playing with mouthpiece in squeak mode, Round 3 - Dave - smooth swap of hands, Round 4 - Nathan - playing up 1/2 step (would be hard but made it sound easy), Round 5 - a tie - left hand only sounds great and reed dipped in hot sauce - the ultimate burn🔥
Love it!
This was hilarious
& I really appreciated Master Roshi up there like a fly on the wall judging you both lol
That was the best saxophone video I’ve ever seen. Do more of this!
When you realize Dave is 1000% better than you with only 1 hand... :D
Great content as always. What cracked me up the most was the "Ah" "Yeah" call and response in Round 5 at 13:57
Thanks for noticing that!
Best pollack video ever! Definitely continue the series.
I think we all know who won. TCO.
always and forever
This was hilarious, i was smiling the whole damn time!
Thanks so much!
Literally laughing out loud at Dave's Tabasco misfortune.
Man it was rough
Dave wins 1st round - 5pts
Nathan wins 2nd round - 5 pts
Dave wins 3rd round - 5 pts
Dave wins 4th round - 5 pts
Dave wins 5th round - 5 pts
Final scores-
Dave - 20 pts
Nathan - 5 pts
Nathan standing there awkwardly while Dave is playing is mood.
Also, you are not kidding when you said you are bad with spicy food lmao, Tabasco sauce isn't even that spicy
Hahah…i like tabasco sauce on food, it’s just drenching the reed in and taking a big sip of it didn’t feel great 😂
Seems like all of these handicaps (aside from the hot sauce) are part of Dave's usual practice routine. Amazing skill
Round 1 - Dave
Round 2 - Nathan
Round 3 - Dave
Round 4 - Nathan
Round 5 - Dave you’re a fing trooper
😂
HA! I sound just like Dave... playing overtones only... except I can't do overtones...
Why is Nathan an absolute god with swapped hands and Dave is a god with just the left hand
That palm key action at 10:48! Excellent stuff
Nathan - what a 🔥🐕... .. . Overall, it was no contest. Literally, no contest. Anybody willing to battle Dave wins just by showing up. Dave's got skills, but Nathan's got brass. Plus, Dave literally got burned on the last tune. #allthesoundsthatcausepeopletohatejazz

7:43 What skill of jumping to altissimo in a flash
100% doing this with the next group shed we do, this was extremely entertaining
Good luck and have fun!
Nate went full John Zorn at 7:42!
this the wildest channel on youtube
Thank you!
@@DavePollack No, thank you for ruining a reed for our entertainment. Make Jazz fun again.
Hilarious! Thanks for this posting this on my birthday!

😂

@@michaelmouawad3575 "if you have a student that won't make any space, that's the ultimate way!"
14:06, wow this part sounded great for only a left hand
This is top tier content right here.
7:43 that was beautiful
I wonder what story Dave gave them at the emergency room triage.
Ahh yes S P I C Y tone
I'll join in the next one. My handicap will be to actually play the tunes from memory... Because my memory for actually playing tunes sucks...
I laughed so hard I peed my pants... LOL. dave round 1, nathan round 2, round 3 was a tie, dave round 4, nathan round 5
6:23 The lick
EDIT: 14:16

So glad you liked it!

Well done though! Have a good day...
For up a half step you should have to play everything thinking a half step up but the backing track is in the normal key
Haaaa
1)Nathan 2)Dave 3)Dave 4)Nathan 5)Nathan. Killer entertainment guys, just the best🙏🙏🙏 I did not stop laughing along with you two 😆😝😀🙏🙏🙏
What did I just witness
That was so funny i missed my own practice 😂
Enjoyed all the video lol...
I didn't know Bruno Mars and Ryan Reynolds played sax
Nvm mind they put the mouthpiece upsidedown what amateurs
love it!!
Thank you!!
All the sounds that make people hate hot sauce.
😂😂
this is legendary
don't call her Miss Fortune... it's Lady Luck... she won't be pleased!
Yessir!
If you're not choking, you're
Not smokin. Cough,cough.
Next time, cumulative effect would be hilarious!

help these men
6:32 - Nathan looks twice as big as you hahaha
Yes sir!!!👍🏻👍🏻
What is the name of the song from the first challenge
All The Things You Are
Is there a tutorial on left handed saxophone? I want to learn all 12 notes!
Adam larson has a left-hand only etude book!
I was hoping for a few TH-cam video
So I'm not supposed to play left handed? How is this different than guitar or drums?
@@kingzephyr9897 Not really different since you have to play with all fingers regardless of your strong hand. You need dexterity in every finger. However the low Bb, B, C and Eb are in the right hand so you might find it only slightly easier
Hot sauce reeds are bad just use flavored reeds
That was funny !
yes sir!
This feels like something ling-ling would enforce.
round 3 dave wins swapping hands!!
LMAOOOO
YESSIR
I think Dave did better than nathan, even if nathan is also a good player and youtuber. I love the hot sauce part anyway 😂
so good things here hehehe
round 2 , dave won,
Leo P
round 0ne sax logic wins,
OMG😂😂😂😂😂
do it with better sax
really surprised saxologic couldn’t shred recorda me up a half step better considering he’s a graduate level sax player
This has been saxophone boy approved
filming a music themed challenge video without zackgrooves is just childish grow up
Eh, Nathan/Zack - same thing
You guys have only fans?
that would be some saxy content
@@bomedy1075 I really hope Only Fans doesn't ban saxual content
YESSSSSS
