Mr. Marsalis, eventually, the instrument makes your life easier.
The music is you.
Branford is probably the coolest cat ever. An excellent musician who recorded a classical album on soprano from memory. His touch, technique, and sound is only matched by his authentic soul.
dang Selmer, you went and got the best sax salesman you could get....
I tried it at NAMM 3 weeks ago. It played very easily right down to low Bb and responded great all throughout the horn.
1:30 « … you have to create the sound… » Facts! Love you Brandford, and love the amazing job done by the Selmer team on this new horn. A real game changer! ❤️🎵🎶🎷
Wow, what? You can play any style of music on that horn? Now I know what's been holding me back. My Mark VI!
I'm thinking about learning how to play the Saxophone and was looking at the Mark VI, can you tell me would this be a good choice style saxophone to begin with?
@lamellewilliams7489 you would need to get a yamaha for beginning sax😮😮😊
@@lamellewilliams7489 Consider getting a Selmer Supreme; it's very easy to play across all registers. Alternatively, if you're willing to invest a bit more, the Super Balanced Action is also a great option. If you're on a budget, Yanagisawa is a better choice than Yamaha, along with other brands like Ishimori or Cannonball. Good luck with your saxophone journey!
Beautiful in appearance.
Branford is correct in analysis (1:00 min mark) that many tenor saxophones are weak when played softly and quietly; the intonation suffers, tone stability suffers, so on. Manufacturing a good alto saxophone is not that much of a problem, but it is very difficult to manufacture a really good tenor saxophone.
What he said is the same for the mouthpiece, not just the sax, even though, yes, you are ultimately responsible for the sound it creates. It also goes with what reed is best for the mouthpiece as well. There’s a requisite synergy there. The better player you are, the less those things can matter, even the ergonomics or key work of the sax, but it all always does still matter to some degree.
Totally with you 👍👍
I’d love to have a supreme, but to make an analogy- the camera doesn’t necessarily make the photographer.
Lover Lay Down - DMB - Top notch playing on them live videos/
What mouthpiece does he use? Vandoren V16 ?
I Love Branford He's my Favorite Saxophone We have The same Ford Name Hayford and Branford I Can't Wait to see him in chicago. I want to tell Branford Marsalis that I'm auditioning to voice Dai Miyamoto in the anime dub movie Blue Giant it's my dream to be a musician and voice actor I love Selmer Saxophones I really want the supreme and the super action 80 tenor saxophone so I can play in a jazz band. I will be like my hero and idol Branford.
If it’s good enough for Branford.. it’s good enough for us mere mortals 🤣👍
Do you know when he started using the Supreme? I heard him live two months ago (end of February), and I'm curious as to whether he was playing it then, because one of the major impressions I was left with was the way he was able to make big changes in his sound, depending on what tune he was playing.
He’s been playing it for about a year I think
Yeah if not longer
All the pros that have reviewed this horn says it doesn't come properly set up from the factory and it is definately not worth the price tag it comes with.
The prices will go down once they've been in the market. I've been offered $7.5k for my fifty year old Mark VI so a new $10k => $9k Supreme doesn't sound like a bad price.
What’s the discount if we mention Branford Marsalis ☮️
😂😂😂😂
Siiiiii🙌🙏🔥
What mouthpiece are you playing on ?///thanks
Vandoren V16 Large Chamber.
🎷👍
Did you read those Q-cards correctly hmmm…🤔🎵🎶🎷
Now listen to Joshua Redman (on his SBA), and tell me you don't hear a difference!
🎷🎷🎷
10 000 dollars !? Not for me. Next
Same here. I'd love to have one, but $10,000 is almost disrespectful.
You sound good on your yamaha nefermawk 😮😊
....I'll take it right now... Not a jazz horn... Not a classic horn...a good horn... That's all.... And a case.... ETC....
Now I understand why its so exspensive
That two33 Yanagisawa is right up on this Supreme.🤔☮️
Who would have thought you would have to be this loaded to get a great horn,..10k Yet the history of jazz and classic was written on much earlier technology ,alas the same company but was written on ba, sba,mk6 so what happened to those horns ,so there not great anymore 🤔 😂
I want that neck strap!!
me too !!
Is there a Supreme alto sax? WHY DO PEOPLE ALWAYS FORGET ABOUT THE ALTO SAX PLAYERS??!!😡
the supreme alto came first. 😂
It came out about three years ago.
Nice sales pitch. We can all be bought at some point. It seems.
Nice to be on the payroll. Hey if you don’t cash in on your name at some point… why bother?
Amazon sound
This is the same guy said the instrument doesn't matter only the player does. Lol
Lol, here we selmer trying to make a sell 11k horn.
Look so much better if had a dark vintage finish
B.S Charlie Parker sounded great utilizing a plastic Sax! This guy is an imitator never ever an Innovator!
Hey man. Then try to think twice if Charlie Parker played with something else than a plastic sax...
Branford can and has played everything possible on a saxophone and created a lot of innovated music- your statement is quite sophmoric.(sp.) Ive been playing professionally for 60 yrs and have earned the righty to disagree. Some people will say then "how many recordings did you sell" and "how many likes do you have on your page" more expressions of lack of understanding of what expertise, creativity, and music are. I'm not buying one for 11K either but let's get real from nino to bass I play what's in my hands. I'm the instrument. Branford is a better instrument than you or me and has been very creative.
Yep!
Even when the horn was borrowed, or had rubber bands for (wired) springs, and cigarette paper for the pad support, Charlie Parker sounded well indeed, for example.
However, Branford sounds great👌
Typical jazz boomer lmfao
my 700 dollar1950s buffet dynaction sounds 5 times better than one of those and is well in tune
PRICE! too much....
