    2:39 Essentials of Be-Bop articulation
    6:01 Another exercise
    7:43 Wrapping up
    IN THIS LESSON:
    Be Bop articulation is simply tonguing the second half of the beat and slurring onto the following beat in a phrase of quavers or 1/8th notes. Sounds easy but to really get this technique down and sound like Charlie Parker, you need to start slow.
    In this lesson I break down the technique for getting this tonguing pattern right. Also, you learn two different patterns you can practice on either alto or tenor saxophone to build this skill.
    And the coolest part about developing your be-bop articulation is that it will help you even if you aren't a "jazz fan". Working on this exercise will help develop your tongue / finger coordination and that will help you in ALL playing styles.
    Have fun!

    Thanks a lot Nigel! My teacher had just taught me this last week, but I felt I needed further clarification and your video did the trick.
    On a side note, how about a video on how to best record a saxophone? I'm looking for tips, but I find most content to be very thin: they talk about microphone types, maaaybe positioning, and that's it. No tips on whether you need any special treatment on walls or behind the mic, how to avoid recording the sound of the keys, adding pedal effects when recording or how to approach different environments where one might need to record. Just a suggestion!
    Cheers

    Wow, Charlie Parker didn't even look like he was moving his fingers in that clip.

      That's good technique for you!

    • @charliesothcott8400

      He's actually trying to play with a recording of himself, so he isn't actually playing, if you watch that full video you can see him laughing at Coleman Hawkins trying to do the same. The director quickly told Parker to stop laughing, it's quite funny.
