    The pace of breakers’ ideas is just insane, how he’ll hang on to one motif and you’d think of course he would have forgotten about it yet manages to sneak it back in

      Also, the rhythmic displacement of those motifs. I would get so lost trying to do that but it appears easy for him.

      TheEleatic I happened to see McCoy almost 30 years ago , in the KYOTO station❗He was there with his sidemen .I told him how I'd liked his albums in his MILESTONE era, He made a certain smile ,(probably because I made something wrong with him…)and then , we shook hands with big smiles……He was truly a GENTLEMAN‼I'm so proud I shook his GOD-HANDS.

      Saw them too around the same time in Ryde, NY (I think it was), but the guest was Phil Woods instead of Michael Brecker. I'd always been a big fan of Phil, but I was apprehensive about whether his style would work with McCoy's group. But he was outstanding along with McCoy's trio -- wonderful concert.

      saw them live in London UK years back, and they didn't just raise the roof, they ripped the roof off and stomped all over it, the collective group intensity achieved levels that could only be described as stratospheric. Never experienced a piano trio like it. Truly phenomenal.
      Brecker must have felt as if he were in heaven to be able to enjoy the pinnacle luxury of such a rhythm section and blessed to be able to join them on stage and create such a pinnacle of collective music together

    Sax teachers say to keep fingers stuck to the keys, because when you will play faster you will have more economy in motion. This does not apply if you are Michael Brecker :)

    • @claudemiropacheco
      @claudemiropacheco Před 4 lety +1

      He had quite big hands, and I don't him keeping that far away. David Sanborn, which is way different from Michael Brecker, but still, is a good player, has a more noticeable spread from his hands to the keys.

    • @stellareffectsmodelingsolu1746
      @stellareffectsmodelingsolu1746 Před 4 lety

      His fingers are still generally relaxed and not flying too far off the keys as he plays the fast lines. His fingers rarely “straighten out,” which is usually what we teachers are more concerned with.

      @ice-iu3vv Před 3 lety +4

      even us sax teachers rarely get this aspect of technique perfect. it is no coincidence that charlie parker DID keep his fingers in perfect position, and he was even FASTER than brecker. he was faster than pretty much anyone, and his technique (of the fingers specifically) was perfect. watch any clips you can of parker's fingers, you'll be amazed. amazing what 12 hours a day for 2 years can do. after parker's famous public failure where the drummer threw a cymbal at him, he spent 12 hours daily for the next 2 years practicing in a woodshed. and yes this is the source of the expression for heavy practice "i need to do some woodshedding". it always APPLIES even if you are the great brecker, if he had managed it, he would have been even faster.
