🎷 Saxophone Challenge
Music lessons and rehearsals have stopped for the summer, so I set Isaac this challenge… (tunes 1-14)
I challenged Isaac to make recordings performing different pieces of music to upload and share via youtube. He has responded enthusiastically and wanted to go back and record some of the beginning tunes that he learned when starting out. Isaac has been learning with the ‘Abracadabra Saxophone Alto’ book from Collins Music.
Here are some of the initial tunes that he has recorded.
Piece number 1 - Breezy
#2 - Beetle crunch
You will certainly see the progression in the complexity of the pieces and overtime also in Isaac’s playing.
#3 - Keep on running
#4 - Bees
Comedy Duo (duet) would come in here but I have posted this individually as he played both the student and teacher part.
#6 - Suo-gan
#7 - Dance
#8 - Au clair de la lune
#9 - Setting out
Isaac has never played a round and so we experimented with playing over a recording each time to build up the four rounds of him playing. we used the best tech that we have available.
#11 - My friend’s round (round)
#14 Checkmate
#15 Zebras crossing
