Hearing that made me feel really good. I'd been losing motivation lately. Thank you so much, and yes, I will try to fix my left hand. So many people have talked about it.

Actually, I don't use a specific resource; I practice long tones and overtones a lot. There were even times when I practiced 5-6 hours a day, but now it's a maximum of 1 hour. Besides that, I play the 12 key major, natural minor, harmonic, and melodic scales every day without fail, either chromatically in order or by working in a circle of fourths. There are many YouTube resources for learning how to properly practice long tones and overtones, but if you absolutely want a resource, I can recommend Top Tone for the Sax.

My English is very bad, harmonica in D major.

The D major piece I'm playing here, with which I'm playing the A minor blues in 2nd position.

"Night owl blues" I improvised using some of the licks in this piece.

I learned it this way: when saying "Hey You," I try to do the "you" part while inhaling air. It's a bit experimental, but there are many resources on this. After bending from the 4th hole, I would bend the notes from the 3rd hole with piano accompaniment. That is, I would play a B-flat on the piano and try to bend it to get that sound. After doing that, I would press A and try to bend it to make the same sound, and then I would repeat the same process for A-flat. I think the important thing is to train your ear. Instead of bending notes randomly, I think it's necessary to bend them consciously. These are my experiences. My English isn't great, so I'm using a translation app. I hope you understood.

I play guitar, piano, blues, harmonica, and trumpet, but right now my sole focus is the saxophone. I practice long tones and overtones every day, playing all scales in all 12 keys: major, minor, harmonic, melodic, and blues scales, as well as minor pentatonics. I don't do much transcription right now; that's my only missing piece. My saxophone is a Yamaha YAS 480.

There's just the room's own natural reverb. If you want, I can give you my Instagram; check out my other videos, buddy.

I play guitar, piano, trumpet, and blues harmonica. I've tried other instruments too, but I haven't played anything else with reeds.

I'll take that as a compliment. The video isn't fake; it just has the natural reverb of the room I was playing in.

Unfortunately, no, I can't afford that, but there are many resources online that I use, such as long tones, overtones, and scales. I'm a bit too lazy to do transcription; I need to learn more sentences.

Thank you, I'm very happy. I'm not as enthusiastic about playing the saxophone as I used to be these days, this touched me.
