      You may be hearing tones flat because you are used to hearing in 442hz. Many saxophonists are used to tuning to 440hz.

      ​@@mitchparker6319 If you have perfect pitch, yes. Although, I wonder if people really hear it when ALL notes are in 440Hz. I mean: there are still saxophones tuning in 440 Hz and nobody is complaining that it is flat. I think JachaTaita hears something different: SOME notes might be flat (I didn’t hear it), or he/she is just not used to the tone color of Nobuya Sugawa.

    An extraordinary performance of JS Bach music for a single voice! I particularly liked the Saraband at 8 minutes. His soprano playing at 13 1/2 minutes is superb! Listen and see if you too, admire Nobuya Sugawa's musicality!

      Unexpected?! Well I guess most people don't know that the saxophone was made for classical music, but because of "saxophone biases" in the classical community there hasn't been many pieces written for it. Its sad that the common consensus around the classical community is "saxophone bad, clarinet good", but thankfully that has been fastly changing.

      Unfortunately, the classical and romantic periods are over, and most new composers write that 12-tone rubbish. At least we can still adapt old music to fit the saxophone.
