"It's not just a scale, it's an opportunity to create music." This is how you should approach everything you play. Excellent words.

Excellent tips. Actually they work together in a very "philosophical" way -- the intimacy with the instrument thing, for example, is a great approach. Thank you!!!

In the mid-90s I purchased Ted Nash's Studies in High Harmonics for Tenor and alto Saxophone. This book was my bible (and in many ways still is) for the altissimo register. Indeed, as a music educator of 17 years now, I have most definitely referred this manual to many!

I've found it hard during Covid lockdown to motivate myself to practice - there's nothing to practice for. You videos about practice have helped greatly to make practice enjoyable: thanks a million. I love some of aphorisms in particular - "A scale is an opportunity to make music" and "play everything as musically as you can".

I have always liked practicing scales,I used to play them a lot in the past,and they are quite good and useful for our technique,and as an addition we can always improvise with them,they are flexible

I am new sax player and i am wondering how to learn notes like you did here. You had something in mind and than you put it in sax as notes. But i would spend like 15 min just to find right note for each one hehe

+Gregor Rencelj Once you played each of those intervalls a couple hundred times, you'll recognize their sound at some point and even get them out of your mind/internal ear and play them on your horn. You can practice those intervalls seperatly.

I believe that he is playing a Selmer VI. He purchased it from Don Mensa back in 1977. Great horn. The mouthpiece is a Beechler and he bought that the same year.

DeEnna Lawson Definitely not a VI. The Bell key guard extends from the Bb to the C# tone holes. VI's don't have that.

You mean I can enjoy practicing? I must be a masochist- pounding out all 12 major and minor scales the full range of the horn after a session of long tones. Thanks for the insight. I'm getting out my horn.

@nataliethistime

Nope. You don't need perfect pitch to do what Ted's doing here. Once you got the sound of any note in your head, you can remember what other notes sound like relative to the first one. It's called relative pitch and it's essential for improvising musicians.
