      Deffo! Since the music we make in our band is mostly cover songs from 20's to 60's, I usually feel that some people simply don't understand the beauty of them old tunes. 🙈

    The high end on that Bari is sweet like Southern iced tea....mellow and just right. No harshness or thinness at ALL. Man, that's a lifegoal horn right there.

    This is a stunning performance, just reminded me of why I bought a bari, that tone 🤤🤤🤤🤤 I’m also looking at a Jody Jazz HR 7*, this video has convinced me it’s a good upgrade mouthpiece. Thanks again Jay 🤙🏼

      Need to stay nice and relaxed in the embouchure on Bari. Let the air do the work and don't bite too much it will cut off the reed from vibrating.

    Ok so Jay I play alto, and my tone sounds ok, do you think a better mouthpiece would help

    • @bettertrax5640
      @bettertrax5640  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      depends on what you are currently playing. Practice helps much more than a new mouthpiece though.

  • @bluesysaxman
    @bluesysaxman 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Jay is this the Jody Jazz HR* mouthpiece you are playing?

  • @gregevans2885
    @gregevans2885 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Curious... in your jody jazz bari mp comparison you really seemed to love the dv and implied it would be your go to. Yet in the vids of you playing you seem to always be using the jj HR*. Do you prefer the HR more now? Today I ordered a handful of HR*, jet, and DV to try out in 6, 7, and 8 tips. I also just got a Theo Wanne durga which I expected to like a lot more since I love my TW shiva 8* on tenor. But the durga is just not doing it for me yet on bari.

    • @bettertrax5640
      @bettertrax5640  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      They are all great mouthpieces. I now play on the BetterSax Burnin' bari mouthpiece. I'll post some more videos here with that one.

    • @gregevans2885
      @gregevans2885 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @bettertrax5640 I thought I'd fall in live with the DV on bari. But after the trial I liked the HR* more. But after playing all side by side I ended up keeping the Theo Wanna durga. It just has something extra that I fell in love with that other mps didn't have.

  • @stephentitus964
    @stephentitus964 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    One of my favorite tunes, and now one of my favorite performances of it. Sounds so awesome on the baritone too. I have not played my sax in years, and am picking it back up again. I know i should try to pick this one out by ear, but would love to see a pdf of your arrangement.

    lovely warm sound. I was wondering you are standing now, other videos you sit down with the bari. Do you have a specific reason for that? I notice quite some discomfort while standing, but I also see much smaller/lighter people standing with it.

    @guydelorme417 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi Jay, wow I love your sound. How about blowing, do you have to blow more than a tenor? The weight and the price are 2 other factors to consider. I bought one strait from China. A piece of junk that I paid $1200. I sold it after 3 weeks on Ebay, The price was a great deal for a baritone but if you have problems with it $1 is already too much if you can't play it.
