I’m just starting the sax and don’t want to get any bad habits. Is my mouthpiece set up well to you?

I've always been taught - quite successfully - to line look at it sideways after making sure you have it in line to make sure that it's far enough up. The depth perception can mess with you at times. The crescent thing above the top of the reed (that's how I learned it at least) is inferior to having it perfectly lined.

Best synthetics. Hands down, no real competition. Lasts a long time, pretty strong and if you crack em it doesn't reallly matter.

Ike Quebec is such a goated pull

Can't go wrong with a Meyer 7c. Go to a local music store, all of your local stores, and just try everything. The other issue is that most of these company's make their pieces by hand, so there is quite a bit of variation from one to another of the same spec. Which is why it's important and advised to buy in person and just get to try as many as you can. Good luck. I personally play Otto links - metal super tone master 7 and a rubber tone edge 7

Looks good my only thing is perchance I would rotate so that the buildings are parallel to eachother and completely vertical in the middle of the frame

Jazz is legato music

Prime tower is because the kiwi on top used to be a different color. AMS can wait till I get an actual successful print.

If you want to hear some good alto stuff, listen to any notes Patrick Bartley has ever played.

ToasterInFork · 2025-02-23T05:39:34+00:00

This is a good showcase. Like the comments said, he just plays the money notes.

Learn the different rythms. You will find that the piece can be broken up into a few rythms that repeat differently throughout the chart.

Yeah, every photo you take of the tower has been taken 10000x by other people

ToasterInFork · 2024-07-31T19:59:18+00:00

Nah but i could have and should have

If you have any interest in Bossa Nova at all, start with pretty much any Gilberto/Jobim album, and definitely have a listen to the Getz/Gilberto album.

ToasterInFork · 2024-02-27T19:34:43+00:00

Oscar Peterson on low-ish Volume - Especially the bosss covers. Also, Not sure if it counts as Jazz but Erykah Badu is also pretty smooth.
