#saxophone

I like to hear melodies that go from one extreme to the next- saxophone to a bell to a whistle, for instance. ↗

I understood that if I wanted to work, the saxophone was the main instrument. The clarinet was what we call a double. ↗

I played saxophone, so I was into jazz. I learned from each audience and each teacher that I had. I can't really tell you any rules or anything, but the way I develop my beliefs is really just by personally learning from different situations. ↗

You can work on the saxophone alone, but ultimately you must perform with others. ↗

I heard Sidney Bechet play a Duke Ellington piece and fell in love with the soprano saxophone. ↗

I've been working on the soprano saxophone for 40 years, and the possibilities are astounding. It's up to you, the only limit is the imagination. ↗

Saxophone is one thing, and music is another. ↗

The saxophone is a very interesting machine, but I'm more interested in music. ↗

Talking about the all night concerts, I did some of the first all night concerts back in the 60's with this little harmonium, and I also had saxophone taped delays. ↗

Throughout the evening I would be recording these long saxophone delays and about four hours into the concert, if I wanted to take a break I would just play back the saxophone. ↗
