축하드려요 멋지네요👍

Actually low C sounds better. Sounds more uniform from note to note, more focused, and perhaps the intonation seems better

Great Sound + Passion displayed on this great ‘ol standard. Thank you.

The performance here was definitely blossoming beautifully! 🎵🪷

Great tune and very well played! Thank you. 🎶🌉

Delightfully mellow. 🎵💋 Of the ones I've listened to, this one had the arrangement shimmer slightly more.✨

Very tasteful and beautiful! Thank you. 🌠 This isn't your fault, the tune is too calm for those lovers to be properly star-crossed, it should have been a movement from a suite, in which things got much worse after this movement.

A great tune and very well played! 🌆💃🍸

An atmospheric arrangement, to be sure. Well played! 🎶🎧🤩 I'm a little surprised the video didn't show the outside of the Taj Mahal at all, seeing it is at Agra.

❤ 'Yet another example of AWESOMENESS ❣️

Awesomeness ❣️ 😺👏🏾🖖🏽

Totally GORGEOUS. Go Bass Sax, GO!!

Great tone & vibe! Thanks for posting this!!

Lovely job.

You're the best on bass sax ❤

Nice to hear someone playing a beautiful melody with love, instead of using it as an opportunity to shred. Can’t wait to hear Lil Durk’s version!

I enjoyed the pleasant chill vibe in this tune. Very well played, thank you! 🎶🎧🤩

Instantly fell in love with this thing after hearing you play,nice job👍

knocked it out the park !

Awesomeness ❣️

Wow, it‘s beautiful

Bloody love this , I'm a baritone saxophonist and I've just started to learn the bass clarinet 6 days ago , it's hard but I won't give up 🙌🏿

Interesting. I want to hear a distinctly different tone quality between the two and its extremely marginal if I do. By 'more open' does that mean projection, I sometimes ask? And yes, being capable to play those bottom three notes on the low C model, especially in a run or conclusion to a musical phrase surely is a strong reason to love being a bass horn musician? Suddenly jumping up an octave on a descending run grates musically, especially in a situation where you're the only bass horn in the ensemble. And I'd love to have the one-each choice! For all but the determined pro musicians its mostly the Eb for the disproportionate cost between the two models.

I envy you , sir...to have such a magnificent experience with so noble and complex of an instrument, even if you are not quite as accomplished yet. May that dream be realized !😊

Beautiful playing. You hear and feel- leaving behind what is irrelevant to expression.

sba sounded most clear. the low notes of sba/Conn, responded better in low range.

Great collection,,wowww..thanks for sharing..

Love the sound of your conn baritone saxophone so warm and a lovely tone

What about the Durga 5?

Can tell how much you love Sylvia!

Kind of like Low A baritone sax vs Low Bb....

The 12 M has a moore darker mellow sound. I think the SBA & the Mk 6 sounds great as well. It al comes down to a player's preference .

I very much agree about the preference for the Low B Flat. I have a P. Mauriat unlacquered Low A bari and its sister in Low B Flat. On the Low A, getting down around low C Sharp and lower, the is a tendency to overtone too easily. Plus, air becomes a bigger concern. On the Low B Flat horn, all the low-register notes are easy to play and resonate for me really well. A lot of great resonant feedback on the Low B Flat horn. I'm not sure if the difference is very noticeable to the listener, but playing these, I can definitely hear and feel the difference. Also, and quite importantly, the Low B Flat horn is lighter, which is always a good thing. Thank you for comparing these fantastic horns!

Could you tell me what mouthpiece do you use? I like your kind of sound. I'm looking for smth similar. I wanted to know what number of mouthpiece is this? Does it require much air? What number of reeds do you prefer for this?

It’s the Conn…sounded great

I can now put a voice to the name. I wanted to hear what your voice sounded like I was trying to imagine what you sounded like during our messages the other day. Hope we can talk more soon. I'd love to see you one day

Hello Brian! Sounding beautiful as usual. It’s always interesting to hear a series of mouthpieces back to back from the same player. You reminded me about the wood Lebayle that I have owned for some time… the first mouthpiece that I ever loved :) Take care, and hope to see you in person soon.

Michael lowenstern is my favorite bass clarinet and he played bass clarinet!

Great!

I have a purple label YBS-62, but I've been on the lookout for a Bb SBA!

Interestingly I actually prefer your sound on the Low C, especially the lowest notes- they sound denser and more even to me, while the Low Eb sounds overall more spread which isn't my cup of tea, even though I'm aware that you prefer Low Eb. To each of their own, I guess. PS I also play a Selmer 67 Low C albeit modified by Blashaus(the addition of a throat Bb vent and an enlarged Low Eb tonehole, as with the Buffet Tosca). And I play various genres from classical to jazz to experimental and many others, which may have influenced my preference for the Low C horn's sound.

bay mpcs rock!

99.9% of bass clarinet players dont need a low c model! only once have i seen a low d written in a part .

Yes, most Eb’s are louder , fuller , & more persnickety… but to play the D, Db , & C is a must in a lot of situations in music ….

The Eb sounds way fuller on the bottom, but that's probably bc these are near-bell notes. Otherwise both sound marvellous and you sound incredibly even between registers.

The low Eb is lighter and it has a better intonation.

coooooool sound Mr.Landrus, How are you?

The Eb sounds less restricted, more open, but I’m not sure I would hear that the same if I didn’t know which was being played. You sound fantastic on both!

The low Bb SBA sounds best to me, but I am not sure that the Conn wouldn't eclipse it with another mouthpiece.

the sba sounds like a big tenor i liked the sound. because it sounded like a regular sax just really deep and warm. sort of crackly umph that you get for a vintage bari. often Baris sound heavy this was a really unusaly beautiful sound
