What a nice sound... I also play a little but can not improve....
Where can I find this arrangement?
Wow your amazing
2024-2025 all state RIP
I remember this tune from a previous life.
i think i’ll try to play this piece for my senior year of high school
👍 👍 👍
I'm a Freshman, and I think I might be screwed. Thanks for the example though, this helps a lot.
1:54
0:23
So in measure 17 and 18 where we have the middle B sharp and then the low f double sharp, should we make a big effort to make them fit in the phrase or let them naturally stick out since they are leading tones? I love your vibrato btw
A++++🎉
Is there a Tenor Saxophone Version of this?
Very nice ! Thank you !
Thanks for putting this video together! I will definitely be sharing it with my studio! Tons of great info! Timing couldn’t be better with my students working on this etude for this year’s All-State audition.
What is the third piece you’re playing when explaining tapering???
The 2nd movement from Ronald Binge Saxophone Concerto
I would love to play this piece it's a very beautiful arrangement. And I must say you played it with elegance magnificent!
I love how he could imitate a clarinet and/or an oboe with that sound at the beginning Especially cuz it sounds like a oboe mixed with a clarinet or an english horn.
Im a freshman and if they say this is easy i dont want to know what hard is😅
26 is the hardest one in the book and that was last years 😭
Analyse incroyable et constructive, je me remets aux Ferling pour pratiquer pendant les vacances avant la rentrée. Ce serait super intéressant de voir les mêmes vidéos pour les autres morceaux du Texas All-State ! :)
Great explanation!
I would love to hear you do a breakdown of this if you haven’t already!
Have you ever explored the Hegvik arrangement of Ferling No. 31, adorned with the Rose embellishments? Nestled in Hegvik's Modern Course Book 5 as No. 32, this rendition elevates the etude to a thrilling new level, infusing it with vibrant energy and flair. It's truly a captivating transformation!
Very lovely information
Beautiful playing and an incredibly helpful explanation of how you shape a logical interpretation - and thank you for using and linking my copy of the etude! I like the crossover of ideas in measures 28-29 from the Mule edition and how it subtly shifts the tonality back to the tonic key.
@@jbargermusic thank you for the beautifully notated PDF of Ferling etudes!
Excelente análisis y explicación. Hermoso sonido. Gracias
Fantastic 🥰
Sehr gut Meisterhaft 🎉 Bravo. Grüße aus Köln
Tears are flowing rn
Bravo!
Thank you. Lots to think about and try.
Could you explain your classical embouchure to me?
The clarity of your execution is beautiful. Very nice choice of music!
Bravo!
It’s so hard 😢😢 but the recording helps so much
Hey Wonki do you do meetings online to go over this
Bravísimo!!!
페링이 이렇게 통통했나? 당신은 나의 작은 선생입니다. 갑자기 왜 페링 영상을? 올리지요?
한때 재미있게 했던 에뛰드~~ 감사합니다. 앞으로도 에뛰드 시리즈 많이 부탁할께요 ~~~
That measure (you know the one) might be the most difficult measure in all the Ferling etudes to play cleanly at tempo
So beautiful😮
Awesome video, I love the quality!
Perfect videoOOOOOOOOOOOOO❤❤❤❤❤❤
no internal body/neck swabs 😮
off topic but which recording of the muczynski sonata are you using in the video?
@@cheewizard7009 It’s my personal recording from many years ago. I will be recording professionally in the fall for the next CD.
You are hand-down the best classical saxophonist out there. Have you ever dabbled in jazz before?
The best affordable cup is the mouth! Hold the reed on the tongue, suck on it like a candy for 3 minutes (careful! don't gag) and then you are ready to assemble and play. Be really careful with your teeth it usually is the main cause of chipped reeds, so open your mouth wide before accepting the reed for saliva soaking.
Can you do a video on different mouthpieces and different sounds you get , and maybe in life ligatures or make a separate video
Bit of research you can find that out yourself. You are aware of what the numbers on mouthpieces mean? (harder reed for lower numbers, soft reed for 7+.) Ligatures: Leather rovner for a darker sound, brighter sound off metal ligatures.
Hello teacher Lee. A question, on which website can I find information about the characteristics and prices of this case for soprano and alto sax that you show in your video. Greetings from Costa Rica.
www.northcountrywinds.com/products/gard-double-saxophone-bag-alto-soprano Check this website!
Thank you!!!
Any idea where to look for the sheet music? Google didn't help :(
Wonderful performance btw!
www.jwpepper.com/Oriental/10296929.item You can get the original version for soprano sax, alto sax, and piano. For the violin version, it is not published but I can share the PDF that I received from the composer with his approval. Simply send me an email.
