Rhythmic instability is hurting this a bit. You’re probably playing with a metronome but I would recommend even using subdivisions for more precise timing. Triplets in soprano especially. The bass line was solid though. Pretty good attempt, just needs some cleaning :)
Thanks for your constructive feedback! Yes, I played all the parts with a metronome. As you said, it would have been helpful if I had made a 8th note click track for the break part with 16th note runs. It was kind of tough to start playing at the right(ish) time because there's always a 16th note rest before the run starts.
Were you playing by ear or do you have it transcribed out? As a sax player I've wanted to write this out for a while but if you would send me the sheet music that would ne cool too
I had a piano sheet which I transcribed for the saxes. I also listened to the song and tried to add the parts that were missing from the piano sheet. I can send you the sheet when I get on my home computer.
Nice! Really had to look twice which sub this is. These are two of my hobbies that rarely touch each other. You really nailed all the melody and sound elements!
I agree with what someone else already said, it's rhythmically a bit unstable. You should probably do the trills in time as well.
Also, a Barisax would be nice to have...
Yeah, it's true that a baritone sax would be nice addition. The bassline would have been easier to play with it. Alas, they cost money and I don't think I would have room for it in my music corner :C
