Don't Get Around Much Anymore

#saxophone #practice #etudes #standards #music #hobby Just a quick evening practice session, decided to flip the Real Book open and play a tune. Backing Track created with iReal Pro, nothing fancy. ________________________________________________ I’m Doug. I’ve been playing saxophone on and off for 40+ years, started in grade 8 at 13 years old. It’s spent some years in the case, not much development. I spent more time developing on the guitar than sax. I attended Grant MacEwan in Edmonton, Alberta from 1991-1993 graduating with a Diploma in Music Performance. The saxophone didn’t get played much for about 20 years… Then I pulled it out again about 15 years ago as I was playing a jazz combo that needed that more than guitar, and I started transferring all that guitar stuff to the sax. Then after a move, the saxophone spent another 5 years or so in the case, until 2 years ago. I decided I wanted to get back into it and actually learn how to play better, sound better, and that’s become a focus of my “hobby time”. Not here to impress or anything, just playing for fun. My main gig is being the Lead Pastor at Gospel Chapel in Grand Forks BC. I have a BA in Christian Ministry from Briercrest Bible College, and a Master of Theological Studies: Old Testament Specialization from ACTS Seminaries / Trinity Western University. So that’s the day job…if pastoring could be considered a “day job”… My set up is pretty basic and probably could use an upgrade, but that’s money. The advice I’ve heard from many pro level players and educators is: get a good mouthpiece, decent reeds, and work on your sound - gear is wholly secondary. So here’s the gear: Tenor Sax: Jupiter JTS587 with a Jody Jazz HR* 6; Rovner Light ligature; D’addario Royals 2.5 or 3. Alto Sax: Jupiter SAS767 with a Meyer 5; similar reeds. Baritone Sax: Yanagisawa 991 - stock MP. Recording (really gorilla here..)
