Was honored to be in the room for Gary Smulyan's first ever performance on a Selmer saxophone.

[@noahpettibon]

Fuck yeah

[@intuneorange]

It doesn't matter what brand he plays but it's nice to know don't forget he's a quadruple Aries that might explain why he plays so good

[@Baribrotzer]

He never played a Selmer before? There's another post from this date where he's playing an older-than-dirt Conn, and I assume that's his regular horn - but NEVER?

[@ThomAvella]

@@Baribrotzer Before this set he told me he's only ever played Conns his whole life. I also found it hard to believe, but friends of mine that have studied with him have said the same thing he did.

@@ThomAvella What about Yamaha YBS-61 (with Woody Herman's band)?

Great to hear this song played again! Anyone know Gary´s mouthpiece?

[@noahpettibon]

A custom Yanigasawa apparently. 9*!

[@lowtone9]

@@noahpettibon Noah, I think it's just a stock metal 9, the biggest tip Yani makes, and that is only .110.
