Saxtalk.com Harmonic Saxophone Etude in Honor of Virtuoso Jazz Pianist Marian McPartland (Preview)

Welcome to the Saxtalk.com Youtube Channel!!!

This video is a preview of an etude that I wrote in honor of piano virtuoso Marian McPartland, who hosted "Piano Jazz" on National Public Radio (NPR) from 1978 to 2011. I will write etudes in honor of other great musicians in the future.

This harmonic etude will help saxophonists to develop better technique on their instruments. This is NOT the final version: this version is played on my Roland AE-10 digital saxophone, and it is only played at 81% speed. The final version will be played on my "real" alto saxophone at 100% speed. I am working my way up to 100% speed, and I am awaiting repairs on my microphone before I record the final version.
