“With the play-alongs you have a great template and a great goal - you want to sound as good on your sax as the sax does on the play along. The best way to achieve this is to listen, play along and imitate.
In the same way, everyone used to learn to be great saxophonists. There were no play alongs in this selection like there are today.”
“The record cabinet was opened, the favorite number was listened to over and over again, transferred to a cassette and then it started. Listened to phrase after phrase over and over again and tried to somehow play along and get attached to it. Put on your headphones and let's go:
Forward-back, forward-back, until the cassette recorder smokes...
You listen and play the song and individual phrases so often that it gradually creeps into your head, your heart and, above all, into your saxophone. You hear more and more nuances, and in addition to the right tones, you gradually internalize the sound, the phrasing, the dynamics – everything that goes with the song.”
My first song was then Mercy, Mercy Mercy from Joe zawinul played by Cannonball Adderly on the alto saxophone. A legend and a milestone in music history. Fantastic.
Today, with the abundance of sheet music with play alongs and digital technology, it's all much easier - and you don't destroy so many cassette recorders anymore
But the method has remained the same:
Listen, listen, play along. Open your ears and imitate as much as possible. Sound, phrasing, dynamics and expressiveness - because that's what makes a song a really good song.
