- "Some Skunk Funk" (Michael Brecker's chorus) transcribed and played by Benoît Sauvé/Recorder,Flûte à Bec,Flauta Doce*.
*Keyless recorders with double-holes upside-down (recorders for lefthanders)
Amongst the various work methods that I have experimented with in improvisation, there is one that I have found particularly beneficial: transcribing choruses from recordings.
This series of videos reflects part of the work done on a few of these amazing solos.
Why transcribing solos?
Although studying the various scales and chords,and the relations between them,is essential in learning to improve,putting these theoretical notions into practise can be very laborious.
This is why making transcriptions of actual solos can be so useful for training aural perception and instrumental technique,as well as allowing us to analyse the styles of great jazzmen,enrich our musical vocabulary,and thus help develop our own musical ideas.

Neo: "I know Jazz"
Morpheus: "Show me"
This is the most legendary thing I’ve ever seen in my life
I somewhat disagree. This is Great stuff, awesome, inspiring, instructive and and a vindicaton of the recorder and dedication... but, in my opinion, the actual solo improvised on the spot by Michael Brecker originally is more legendary even ;)
@@PabloVestory in a very meme like manner, this IS the MOST legendary thing ever 😂😝
ooomgoooosh? Really? Unbelievable. First audition I thought it was electronic production. NO!! Hey my friend. Perfect sync with Michael. Extreme difficulty. You're Amazing! Congrats!! 👋👋 My best regards from BRZ🇧🇷
wow. Had to watch that quite a few times...
Holy SHIT! ANYONE who can play one of Brecker's transcribed solos is amazing but this cat is a freakin' MONSTER!! RIGHT ON!!!
Morpheus: What training tape is this?
Tank: He wanted to learn jazz recorder.
How long's he been going?
2 Hours, this guy's a tank :O
This man restored the reputation of the recorder in less than 2,5 minutes for good...
Hysterics, great comment
I didn't know that Keanu Reeves played recorder.
Jadesayade came for this comment
John Wick
When you play the recorder does it make the recorder breathtaking?
This is wicked man. Never thought it'd be possible. Respect for uploading it in sync.
I never heard the actual notes in this solo until now
Besides how impressive this is from a technical standpoint...it is also interesting that he plays it "reverse" handed with the right hand on top.
That's because he's left handed. He's playing this with a recorder made for left handed which has the two holes inverted. I don't know personally the guy, just read the description.
It makes me sick to my stomach how many hours must have been spent practicing the recorder to pull this off so clean.
This is my 3,945th time watching this.
I am never, ever oing to think of the recorder as a "kid's instrument" ever again! He's amazing!
2020 here I just found this and wow this is actually inspiring
This guy just blows my mind. I keep thinking, "This can't be real"!
Great stuff!!!! How long have you practice each tune....not something ones learn in a coffiebreak!
Wants more of Your music!
*********Stars!
holy shit thats sick haha
Man, when I used to play that sh_t on my tonette in first grade, the teacher would crack the baton over my head and say "quit playing so outside!" BTW, loved it! Nice Job!
Sick! - AND- he has his hands upside down!
Played backwards...right hand on top and here I am forcing (as a music teacher and how the recorder was taught) my students to use the left hand at the top. This is so AWESOME!
Xiomar Lopez, I too am an instrumental music teacher and have taught the Recorder for many years. This goes WAY beyond "Hot Cross Buns." LOL!!
But the recorder is designed to be ambidextrous?
That's one of my favorite Brecker solos. Very well done! Did you transcribe the solo yourself?
Who could put a thumbs down on this?!! This is amazing!
Браво!!! Я в шоке от тех кто ставит дизлайки . Это наверное полные нули. Единицы могут повторить такое соло Брекера на саксофоне . Но на сопилке! Что такое сопилка... Фантастика!
BRAVISSIMO!!! HI CLASS!!! БРАВИССИМО! ВЫСШИЙ КЛАСС!!!
can some one please tell me where i can find this transcription PLEAAAASSSE! i'm DYING trying to transcribe it myself for an ISU...
his face looks like he's trying to take a massive dump. He is the best at recorder ever!
Holy shit! Amazing! I never seen anyone blow a recorder like that. Thumbs up Benoit!
Este "extraterrestre" es uno de mis Genios Anonimos: grandes y desconocidos musicos, hay mas, si quieres conocerlos mira en mi blog: rinomusica.blogspot.com/2014/09/mas-genios-anonimos.html
Benoit Sauvé just made Straight flute a very cool instrument !
I came here thinking it was a joke. I was mistaken.
うわーリコーダーの天才がいた
You're a genius!
Can't believe what I just saw and heard! Wo man, I am deeply impressed!
Why is this so hilarious and badass at the same time?
They said it could not be done
This is astounding. Thank you for sharing.
@pipamusa Sharps and flats on a recorder are usually achieved by partially covering a hole. Can you imagine how precise this guy must be to play chromatic ascents and descents on a recorder at this speed?
Bravo! Man this is tight. It does shed a new light for me on at one day maybe being able to cover a Michael solo on my sax. Great job of nailing it! Thank you for uploading your work.
WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So glad I stumbled on this again... frickin silly good
You have a transcription of the solo available?
Sin palabras.....súper espectacular 👏👏👏👏👏👏
It's like Severus Snape and Gilbert Gottfried had a child who didn't fuck around during music class in elementary school.
Absolutely crazy!
Incredible enough to transcribe and perform this, but to do it on a recorder is insane. Awesome job!
ANIMAL !!!! CONGRATULATIONS !!!! I celebrate each of your hours of studying
The only thing more insane than this is the original that was IMPROVISED. Most people have no clue how good Michael Brecker was. And his discography contains 900 albums!
Wait a minute...What? WHAT? W H A T ! ? ! ? Jaw is on the floor!!!!!! Crazy. And I thought I played jazz recorder...
Monsieur puis-je vous remercier et vous prononcer la plus profonde gratitude d'avoir publié ces clips vidéo. Je suis saxophoniste et Michael Brecker signifie beaucoup pour moi. Autrefois, avant le sax, moi aussi j'ai joué de l'enrégistreur entre autres instruments de musique, j'ai aimé d' improviser sur lui. Grands respects à avous.
OMG! Freakin' incredible. I think Brecker himself would have been amazed!
bravissimo ,ok,,in gamba
As a sax player learning alto recorder - this by far more difficult to play on recorder - like levels more difficult!
Wow, amazing! I can't believe you do that on that instrument
O.O y yo k pense k la flauta dulce no era muy interesante..... esto m dejo kallado exelente!!!!!
the kyng mama mia superrrrrrrrr oooooooooooooauuuuuuuu
Incredible playing!!! I can't wait until the kids I teach in my Grade 5 recorder class see this - most of them still can't discern between F and G!
You are a God!
Neo in between kung fu and helicopter lessons
Hi there. First of all incredible playing! I'm a 16 year old saxophoneist that want to learn to transcribe in general. Could you give me some tips to learn how to do it correctly and get a good start?
"alright kids get your recorders out , we are learning a new song today"
Well, I don't know WHO you are, or who you THINK you are...but THAT'S BAD-ASS baby!!! Bar NONE...one of the most amazing things I have ever seen.
This dude is amazing! I didn't think that I was a hater, but after seeing this guy KILL on the RECORDER, I want to beat him up!!!
the guy with the saxophone in the background has a much harder job trust me ....
but anyway both are WAY beyond human levels xDDD
@nperspective I think they plugged him into the Matrix and ran the "kung fu" and "jazz recorder" training tapes at the same time
locura ,insano como pode misericórdia muito bom.😮
This is Not True ???????????? You are unbelievable. I wish you all the best. God Bless you. Greetings from Germany
This is just sick. Somewhere Michael Brecker is asking God if he can borrow his recorder for a minute...
Can you come play this to my companies reception next saturday? Just this.
I simply got to love this stuff, it's just amazing how you blow your recorder in that funky way.
Well, since he is NEO this is not hard for him at all. He just thinks "there is no recorder"
I play tenor saxophone, but I can't play this crazy solo.
the best!
when did trent reznor start playing jazz fusion recorder?
WOW!
If I had seen this 20 years ago I wouldn't have stopped playing the recorder.
Awesome!!! What do you do if you have an F#-G# trill? (or C#-D# on soprano)
Unbelievable.... never heard such a great jazz-flute! Thank you so much, Benoit Sauve!
this is the live from barcelona version. There's a youtube video of it.
wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! Brutal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 100% incroyable!
that's what they need to teach us when we learn those in 5th grade.
how the fucking fuck is this possible??!!
You are a monster, that must have been ridiculhard to transcribe.
shit this is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good :-)))
1:34 his hair moved!! (Oops - no, it didn't.)
INSANE!!! I will never doubt the recorder again... :)
Two words: a-mazing
🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Impossible to the Nth power.
Wow. Did you ever try the Heavy Metal Bebop live version?
@nperspective I was thinking more like... Tom Cruise
Holy Sh*t! Now THAT is how you play the recorder!
Hot dam!! This cat's a monster
H O L Y S H I T NO WAY
Wow - you've done an amazing job with this!!!
What kind of sorcery is this?
Amazing, and you also pull a mean jazz face.
:O What the FUCK was that. Totally crazy.
if only i stuck at it in the first grade...
dang it, why'd he stop at the trumpet solo?
Very good technique and well done for learning it. I'm curious to know, is there much demand for someone who can copy other people's solos note-for-note or do you just do it for fun?
Animal is the word !!!
This sounds better than an ewi
great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
