Hey all, so after taking a year long hiatus, I'm back to the shed again. I've mostly kept my technique up by practicing EWI and my ears are still good (if not better) from taking up production and mix work. But to no surprise, my endurance is shot. So I'm back to basic breathing exercises and...

Hi, I think that the process of transcribing is one of the most useful to evolve as a player to improve: ear training, technique, rhythm, jazz vocabulary I don't use any software, just my stereo or computer. I press play, pause, sing the melody and then transfer it on the horn. This is how I do...

Hello, friends. (I really shouldn't post another question until I finish answering the posts on my other threads, but, if you will forgive me, here it goes...) Before sitting down to learn some transcribed solos, I usually like to listen to the solo first, to see if the style even interests...

I'm in the process of transcribing one of my favorite solos, and I have everything down except for this fast run part. I try slowing down the recording but then it gets difficult to hear the different notes in the lower registers. I'm wondering how you guys go about this process? Thanks.

I wanted to get a song from YouTube for an alto sax transcribe was wondering if anyone knew of someone that is legitimate and not over price. Thanks

Transcribing in the digital realm drove me crazy until I figured this out.

A cool, non-music video, inspired this topic. As a jazz musician, it is our task to digest large quantities of musical language and...

So recently I've been getting into a lot of transcribing and have been doing it on both my sax and on the piano. My question is which way is best?

I've been playing saxophone for 7 years. Started on Tenor Saxophone and it has stayed that way. It is my senior year at my high school and as a senior I am allowed to do a Senior Concierto. For my Concierto I want to play "Over The Rainbow" by Richard Elliot. I fell in love with the song when I...
