They were supposed to be classical instruments, but instrument makers in Paris did a successful boycott so that few composers included sax in their pieces.
Wow this is so wonderful! It reminds me of a quote by the Irish poet John O 'Donohue: " Beauty is that in the presence of which you feel more alive". I feel this way at two on the morning now , thank you! I absolutely love your podcast too.
I am very impressed. I'm an intermediate clarinet player and an low-intermediate flute player, and I can say 1 thing... "The articulation is strong in this one!" ahaha! Woow! ahahaha! I can't articulate like that on the clarinet... and never will... ahaha!!! :)
El sax soprano no es nada fácil. Sonido y técnica excelentes. Un pelín demasiado rápido. Impresionante la articulación y el sonido (afinación, agudos, graves). Excelente saxofonista.
Glissando maybe, or a smear... I am no soprano sax player, but, I think she does it by modulating the pressure on the reed. Since soprano sax does not have open holes, this probably is best executed this way, instead of a gradual opening of the plateaux. Or maybe it is a combination of both techniques... Not sure...
@dvd man Not sure, i mean i'm studying the sax ^^' i'm perfectioning the soprano (after alto and baritone) and i'm almost at horizontal (teachers makes me play so), at least more than she does. But i repeat it sounds good ;)
I totally agree with you on the positioning the saxophones and soprano in particular. And that is why her sound is closer to a clarinet than a saxophone.
@dvd man correct embouchure is a relative term. you are probably thinking from a classical players perspective when the lower lip is tucked inside and you angle the instrument downward like a clarinet. but the jazz community plays 99% lower lip out and you need the mouthpiece to come off as straight as possible to get the best result. and no, you do not need to tilt your head back... maybe even a bit forward could be better.
@dvd man well no ahaha actually your alto mouthpiece is quite horizontal (the neck is making the angle), and so "should" be your soprano so you need to put it higher ;) I invite you to go to this video to see how I'm holding my sax ;) th-cam.com/video/uNSI28q2asI/w-d-xo.html
No esta mal, es un poco diferente a la original, creo que muy repetitiva. Hecho de menos los armonicos del final. Pero bien hecho. Cada uno hace su version de la czarda😂😂
Im sad seeing this I was expecting the slow part until the candence and you just jupped it off A played that piece in quartet and with piano think that part its the climax of the piece but okay 😑 But your staccato is amazing Congrats
Za bardzo dzielisz te szesnastki , i trochę moim zdaniem powinno być wolniej bo jest trochę zaginione . Więcej uczucia , a nie tylko techniki a wtedy będzie dobrze 😁
The first time I heard it, I got so addicted to it. I've listened to it 20 time now without stopping 😂
Jazz has for so long blinded me to the classical context of saxophones. This was refreshing to see. ❤️
They were supposed to be classical instruments, but instrument makers in Paris did a successful boycott so that few composers included sax in their pieces.
Jess Gillam eres la mejor. Anoche te escuchamos en Aspen Music Festival, harris Concert Hall y nos inundaste los corazones. Gracias
Words can't describe how much I love this!
That's some serious talent there! The tonguing is so precise! It sounded amazing!
And you bought a 20,000 dollar sax yesterday, right? Your very first just to give it a try.
She really hit us with the ‘doodoodoo doodoodoo doodoodoooo’
Such a beautiful piece of music , my ears are pretty grateful
one of the best spanish music pieces of our century
Very good. Total mastery of the saxophone. Music well done. Congratulations!

Another great performance, Jess. Absolutely beautiful

Ole from Spain Jessy. Grande Iturralde
Sorprendente, increíble, gracias por inspirarme a tocar un instrumento :')
There's no applause at the end of the piece in the video - but let me assure you, there is a great round of applause from here.
It’s cause it’s a recording session there’s not audience
@@Bob-hv6dy Thanks! That explains.
I would have thought this dexterity to be impossible!
You are amazing!!
Wow. Some seriouslt great soprano chops too🙌🏻
Thank you for such a beautiful performance ..!
we listened to this in class and out of the 5, we voted and r fave one was this
An amazing up and coming talent on saxophone. As good as anyone I have heard in the classical world.
I have a lot to learn from you i play sax too but alto
This is such a great performance. That pitch bend at the end stopped on a dime lol
El sax soprano no es nada fácil. Sonido y técnica excelentes. Un pelín demasiado rápido. Impresionante la articulación y el sonido (afinación, agudos, graves). Excelente saxofonista.
The staccato is
....perfect

BRAVOOO 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
You are awesome!!
Love this. 😊
How is it called that sound that she makes at 2:35 when she transitions to the last note?
Glissando maybe, or a smear... I am no soprano sax player, but, I think she does it by modulating the pressure on the reed. Since soprano sax does not have open holes, this probably is best executed this way, instead of a gradual opening of the plateaux. Or maybe it is a combination of both techniques... Not sure...
Awesome! Bravo!
I looooove this
Was für ein schöne version🤩
Maravilhoso.
Paz na mente e ❤️❤️.

The best saxophone player in classical music in my opinion. Just superb!!!!!
Yeah she's amazing.
3:00 she brings the rhapsody in blue style reed playing in and I about peed my pants. DAMN LADY.
You're amazing ❤
Delightful piece!
super detache..... bravo
Addicting indeed.
Fantastica🥰
Eres increíble 😍
SOLID
How you can play this without notes?🤔
Wow!
Is this the Young Musician performance with the video overlaid (I can hear the accordian synth)?
She sounds like a clarinet, and her embochure is like that of a clarinet.
Sheet music pleaseeeeeee 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 or pdf sheet 😁
Weird that she put the soprano like a carinet (45° degrees), normally we put the sax more horizontal.. But it sounds great :D
@dvd man Not sure, i mean i'm studying the sax ^^' i'm perfectioning the soprano (after alto and baritone) and i'm almost at horizontal (teachers makes me play so), at least more than she does. But i repeat it sounds good ;)
Is that how you hold it? I've been trying to figure out how to hold the soprano, but couldn't find a video about it
I totally agree with you on the positioning the saxophones and soprano in particular. And that is why her sound is closer to a clarinet than a saxophone.

She is almost as good as Kenny G
Bravissimi!
No vibrato is definitely an interesting choice for this piece
I am also practicing this song
Ես փաստորեն միակ հայը չեմ ես))))))
@victora babajanyan ալտ ես նվագում ? Եսել))
It's a PIECE
Հայկ Սեւոյան ayo alto em nvagum
Victoria Babajanyan me too but on alto
No cadenza???? I was excited to hear your interpretation on it. : (
Здорово!!!
brutal
這是讓聽者有意😊耳聞者為之動容的音樂饗宴
No esta mal, es un poco diferente a la original, creo que muy repetitiva. Hecho de menos los armonicos del final. Pero bien hecho.
Cada uno hace su version de la czarda😂😂
Alguna manera de conseguir las partes, para fines de estudio universitario ?
Like others
Please!!!!!!!
Sheet music!!!!!!!
Where is the altissimo though?
what the instrument is this?
Soprano saxophone.
Im sad seeing this
I was expecting the slow part until the candence and you just jupped it off
A played that piece in quartet and with piano think that part its the climax of the piece but okay 😑
But your staccato is amazing
Congrats
Za bardzo dzielisz te szesnastki , i trochę moim zdaniem powinno być wolniej bo jest trochę zaginione . Więcej uczucia , a nie tylko techniki a wtedy będzie dobrze 😁
is it a vandoren mouthpiece?
definitely a vandoren lig, not too sure about the mouthpiece
As a jazzaphone, she doesn't know how to articulate, everything is vibrato and there is no meaning
This is a joke, I loved your playing
😢😮😢😮pequena 是什麼意思？
