Great demo. Anyone who wants a different specific demo should try one out for themselves and record their results.
Great suggestion! A pair of these tenors will be available for anyone to play at our event on April 22nd at our shop in Boston. All are welcome!
Finally someone who demonstrate the horn without playing a bunch of nonsense, super fast , great job and BTW, this horn is by far the best sounding Selmer I have ever heard since a very good VI. I think Selmer finally brought back the old Mark VI, SBA horns with a modern touch, I have a feeling that this model will be a very sough after tenor saxophone and hard to get it cheap.
Great playing, sound, intonation and technique! 👏👏👍🏼👍🏼💪🏻💪🏻 Supreme is a game changer! Que viva 🇵🇷🇵🇷! 💪🏻💪🏻🎷🎷
Dig the jacket man. Sound great too.
Superb demo. Worldclass skill
Very good play
🎷 🎼🎤🙏🏆♥👍👌
Bravo 👏🏽
Sounds great on you with that set up.
Sounding great buddy!
Tremendo, bro!!
Great playing !
Edmar!!
You should be in charge of demoing all saxophones. Great combination of styles, sounds and great tone. Really shows it off well and gives a good impression of what the horn can do.
We appreciate your kind words and for watching! We're lucky to work with incredible musicians both at and around the shop! More demos on the way!
Just, GREAT DEMO !
Adorava experimentar...
the lick
Lindo lindo lindo hein parabens gostei o valor dele
❤😊
Evidemment ca fait envie !!🙂
La joueuse ou le saxophone? 🤣🤣Merci d’avoir regardé!
The horn sounds wonderful! I’d be interested in knowing if this horn was played as is right after unboxing. I’ve seen a couple of reviews that claimed the horns needed significant set up of the pads and keys right out of the box, whereas other major manufactures’ horns don’t. A horn costing thousands more shouldn’t need to be tuned up by the dealer or purchaser after it’s unboxed. Or maybe it was just their experience.
Just rewatched the video and he says yes, it’s right out of the box. Good to hear.
If that tenor plays that well right of the box, (no adjustments) that's impressive.
lol c'mon man, it's a Selmer, they are notorious for being terribly setup from the factory going on 20 years, which is shameful considering the price.
@@todayontheinternet9576 Thanks for the reply.
Great playing. Which mouthpiece is he using? It would be good to know.
Great question! He's on a Theo Wanne Lakshmi 8 mouthpiece!
@@VirtuosityMusicalInstruments Thanks! 👍
Check the embouchure. Wow.
Hi, would you much prefer using metal mouthpiece than the plastic for this saxophone ?
Edmar chose the Theo Wanne Lakshmi 8 metal mouthpiece for this video out of the Theo Wanne lineup, which he had been playing for about a year as his main mouthpiece at that time.
In the separate video we filmed with him a few months later comparing every Theo Wanne mouthpiece, he stated that he primarily prefers rubber mouthpieces, and at that time was daily driving the Ambika IV 8 hard rubber on his vintage Mark VI.
The choice of mouthpiece material is ultimately a balance of feel and result. In some cases like Brahma, the difference in tone is small, while in others it is more noticeable. I think it is fair to say the choice is quite up to the individual player.
First mistake: Lifting the instrument at the bell from the case!!! My first advice as a repairman: Never lift the weight of the saxophone (ie the tube with all the keywork) at the bell!!! The keys from low B/Bb are attached on the tube; slight shift of the bell results in leakage of those keys...
Alto saxophone 's are better than tenor saxophone 's....I said, more soft and sweet's music tones.....than ever
Great! But instead of " Body and Soul" I would get more information if you played " Prelude to a Kiss" in two octaves with no vibrato, pianissimo to mezzo forte. Only the melody.
No sliding up to the notes in the palm keys. With the metronome on 42 for the quarter note. You are a good player. But I want to hear the truth about the saxophone.
Yes, unfortunately many of these TH-cam videos purporting to be play tests of instruments, mouthpieces, reeds and other paraphernalia are simply pretexts for the reviewer demonstrating his musical talent and proficiency.
Still better than hundreds of notes at 300BPM like most reviewers usually do.
Too expensive.
Marketing is super ..... but the saxophone realy?
Really great horn, but I would have liked to hear good tenor sounds and not so much jazzy phrasing. Is the mouthpiece that it normally comes with, conventional?, paste or metal?
