Sleigh Ride, except the rebellion worked (Bari Sax POV)
Merry Christmas, everyone!
This is from the actual performance of Sleigh Ride we did for the Christmas Gala concert, at the second concert, which happened on Sunday, December 11th. After our sight reading (the "rebellion"), our director decided we'd perform the piece anyways, and so that's how we ended up here. I've opted to upload it on Christmas, and not the day of the performance, for two reasons: (1) it's a Christmas tune, and (2) I figured it'd be a fun way to round out the year.
Hope your spirits are bright and merry this season, and that you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Sleigh Ride, rebellion edition (Baritone Saxophone POV)
zhlédnutí 20KPřed rokem
AKA, Sleigh Ride, except our conductor doesn't want to do it, and so we rebelled; AKA Sleigh Ride, but I'm sight reading the baritone saxophone part
what mouthpiece is this it sounds great lmao
dude i thought it was just me who did this 😭😭 so it is a bari sax thing
the tenor sounds terrible in my left ear (im a tenor player)
Is no one going to talk about how good this part is 1:52
do you know what POV means?
POV P-oint O-f V-iew
former bari sax player, now on tenor, Proud to see you play these low notes Loud and Proud!
🤣
(im using my brothers account this isnt really him) i love the song and great job but what sucks for me is im too small to play it
Thank you for playing actual dynamics!
😭✨🤌🤌
Help I don’t know how to play quiet without sounding airy😢
Part of that could be because of your reed; check to see what strength you're playing on, and see if it's been "broken in" (played on for a few days, rehearsal and practice). A harder reed that hasn't been broken in is gonna sound a lot more airy than a softer reed that has been.
@@j.mitch.8 it’s a 2.5 and it has been broken in but it takes more air and it has a better tone than my other 2.5s
@@combustion1041 First, I'd like to commend you for having multiple reeds (something I skimped out on in high school, haha). Second, it could be where you're biting down on the mouthpiece. I found that right above where the reed starts to touch the mouthpiece itself gets good placement for my lower lip and my tongue, and it doesn't sound as breathy when I play with that positioning.
@@j.mitch.8 thanks man
the band's speedrunning it bro
Sleigh Ride Any% category world record holders!
WHY SO FAST THE POOR CLARINET PLAYERS UP IN THEIR RANGE
It's okay, the underclassmen clarinet players are being carried by the seniors!
W video... I'm looking hampter btw I find them in so many bari sax videos lol
Wow! This is such an improvement from the last video! Great job!
ive barely seen a bari sax sound good to me but you have a tone that isnt honky and ugly good job
bro looks like Howard Wolowitz
Even know it’s way past Christmas, This sounds absolutely lovely! Great job! :D
WAY better than last time
no disrespect, but you look like yumi
I can kinda see it aswell lol
making the bari sax players proud
bari player here, great job!! your tone is great
this is amazing, this is what all of the people in my school's band think we sound like 🤣
Great improvement from last time!
Great performance! I loved it even though I don’t play bari sax, I’m just a normal baritone, but great performance
Do you sing?
@@JonathanTheTrombonist hes talking aboiut the euphonium
@@daddychill1027 I’m also a Euphonium player but a baritone horn is different
Not a fan of the jazz mouthpiece but love its sound
I'm not either. I've been considering getting a new one, which'll be especially useful for when I get my own bari.
Great job, brings back memories. Loved playing the Bari!
That is fast!
Love it!!!
Such an improvement
Great job buddy! Now I wish I recorded my playing too lol Next time I guess!
Great job bro! I love the Bari Sax and I hear an improvement from last time. 👍🎷🔥
fr...He's in way more control of his horn and his honking is much better than the time he sight-read the piece, which is fantastic.
You crazy son of a bitch, you did it. You actually did it. GG.
i play bari sax i’m only 13 just turnt and i know how it feels to play low notes but i’ve got so good at them that i don’t try anymore there are many people wanting me to play for churches and stuff but i’m sticking to school cause i’m only 13 but yeah loved the video and keep up the amazing work man😁
I don't get how this is a rebellion.
their band director didn’t let them play sleigh ride for concert so they decided to play on their own
the horse whinny sounded like a ghost
its funny how this popped up for me now that we have sleigh ride in our repertoire and i play sax hehe
Bari sax here, we´re playing this song now and its so fun
Bari sax player here 👋🏽, currently playing this song again for the for 3 years in a row 😂 it’s fun but I don’t recommend taking a breathe after every note, also practice your G# going into that low C# and also practice that low B, it’s all about practice but overall good job you got the spirit 💪🏽
Honestly for G# to low c# I just do the C# pinky for the G# do I don’t have to move it 😭
good job john mitchel!!
Don’t be scared to be loud dude, basslines are the best, and try to make your sound a lot more full it’ll sound a lot better
what if you band teacher says not to be loud playing the basslines ?
@@Jamaka378 then play softer
@@okxhieu exactly thats what zoxia was trying to say idiot
0:48 Tuba 😍😍😍
This kid is great. Remember these times. They will last forever. Time spent with band friends is the best
Do we need a bass trombone on that part?
thank you john mitchell for your work on the rico graftonite mouthpiece
@@hampter2407 theyre fine for the value
Try not to take breaths after the notes. As a bari player who marched and did. wind Ensemble and Jazz for far too long, I learned the hard way. Good tone though
try not to take in a breath after quarter note, it really messes with your air support and you won't be able to get notes out as smoothly. when breathing, try to breathe in with your stomach so you can take more air in and use the same breath over a few measures instead of breathing after every note. another note, try to keep your stomach tensed. i've noticed (for me at least) that the notes come out a lot easier when your stomach is tensed up. you have a great sound and youre a great player!
Make sure you are using fuller air to get those out
Lmao we have almost the same pic
As a bari sax I can understand the pain of honking low notes one measure and then playing with the altos the next
Bass trombones:
Try the tenor sax on sleigh ride, literally have to play on the offbeats from everyone else
nah i play this in class the low c# 💀
