Simon Currie's SAX SCHOOL
United Kingdom
Registrace 5. 10. 2016
This channel is for beginner and intermediate saxophonists musicians learning to improvisation, it encourages students to play phrases based on the blues scale, and gently exposes them to the idea of improvisation. I have been playing the saxophone for 40 years and teaching for 25, most of the tracks are played by British top session players.

As a budding or hobby musician, there’s nothing better to develop your musical skills and have fun at the same time than playing in a band with other like-minded people, guided by an expert tutor. Project Band, founded by Simon Currie, saxophonist with The Manfreds since 2001, does exactly that. Project Band welcomes players of saxophones, flute, clarinet, brass plus piano, guitar and rhythm section aged 16+ to play modern pops, soul, funk and jazz in an enjoyable and nurturing band setting.
All the musical arrangements and backing tracks used are available on the Project Band website, so sight-reading isn’t necessary. There will be plenty of scope for confident players to develop improvisation skills in the sessions too. Tunes like Happy (Pharrell Williams), Uptown Funk (Bruno Mars), Ain’t No Sunshine (Bill Withers) and I Shot the Sheriff (Eric Clapton) join many more in the Project Band repertoire. Each set of sessions will feature a different mix of new tracks and old favourites. Tutors Simon and Damian have a wealth of experience between them, having played with many band greats and pop icons over the years as well as teaching and running their own groups.
Project Band runs termly over ten weeks of two-hour sessions, finishing with a concert. Established venues in Newbury and Abingdon will be joined by Reading beginning in the New Year. Trial sessions are available.

çok güzel anladım çaldım ama çalışıcam thnx
Just I live near doncaster
Really good this wish I could get involved in something like this
Bill so good
Absolutely Great
very good! thaks so much!
Dude I'm sorry but you sound like garbage I don't know why you thought you should make this video. Like if you're just learning then great keep it up you're doing awesome. It's not that bad but you're definitely in no position to be teaching you sound like a student yourself
Play it a lil higher sir, to make it sound more original like Kenny G
When i press the octave key, theres no difference..but then , im new 🤷
Super ❤
I have been doing the alto saxophone for some time and have been wanting to switch to soprano so this really inspired me! Great playing!
@@therealmasino thanks
I like very much your explanation !!! Thanks a lot, I'm going to study deeply every advise !!!
For the life of me i cant hit the high D it always goes to a normal D, is this to do with my mouth posture?
Nvm took me about an hour but i got it down
How can I become a member? Günther

Thank you
im just beginning to ply sax and i really want to play careless whisper to annoy my sister so thnk you sir on this tutorial 👍👍👍
Thank you so much 🫶 doing this with my Sisters right now and we‘re so thankful that you exist!!
Which saxophone are you using
Thanks for taking your time to do this and so well too. Nicely broken down for ease. Ive procrastinated with my tenor sax practiceing recently, and so, ive found your videos and website which i wish i found much sooner. Thank you 😊
Pls help i can't do the last 3 notes
Thank you so much.
This man is a legend
Thank you!
Now make the rest
?
Ima sorry but this didn’t help me you go to fast I tried re watching. It multiple times but didn’t hell
Practice!
Thanks for this video and great playing. I have been looking for exactly this: sax looping with an RC-30. I would love to know,i can you add more tracks, creating B or C sections to song on the RC-30? Can you add reverb and is there a harmoney effect to create all of thoses voices automatically? Also, what is the silver metal piece at the top of the saxophone body, below the neck?
Hi. The RC 30 is a bit limited to tracks but can be operated by battery, which is good for busking. The silver block attaches to the crook and gives the sax an edgier sound.
6:03
You are actually Majestic sir
🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!
So, from what I'm seeing the idea is to add notes in the adjacent octave too.
Yep!
5:09 Pu it in x2 spped. It souns so... pretty.
This is the best tutorial for a song no debate
Thank you
"promo sm" 🎊
I'll try to learn this
Do that more. I really appreciate you❤
Thank you so much sir! I play the saxophone for my school band I’m in beginner band and we have a concert and solo sign ups came up so I was hoping to play careless whisper for the concert lol
Good luck
Fantastic coach . I look forward to joining sir . Regards Antoniou.
WRONG KEY. Of course this is a beginner's lesson. I suppose its an easier key for the teacher. His tone is poor.
It’s an easier key for the students. Post a video of you playing something, you think I can’t play, send me a link? That’s a challenge !!!!! Bring it on!!!!
No it is not in wrong key, alt sax C equals to concert Eb in which Take Five was written :)
Hi, I think the last notes I wrong, it should be B B C# D B I believe. Nonetheless amazing video, thanks for the tutorial and it sounds great!! 😃🔥🙌🏽
Great lesson! Thank you for uploading
How long should it last for someone to learn from the very scratch, having no exp in paying the instruments (only keyboard in the age of 15 a few songs only with the sounds display). Thanks
Nice damn
Nice
Thanks for sharing this 🙌 🙏 ❤️ love it 😀 ❤️ 😊 💖 Have a nice day ❤️ 💗 💕
A fabulous tune.
