What do you mean by a "bright" sound? Marcel Mule-era French? What kind of players play with the broad type of sound you're after?
I have no influences. I just need a classical sound.saxman_aja said:What do you mean by a "bright" sound? Marcel Mule-era French? What kind of players play with the broad type of sound you're after?
To be quite direct, you'll need to get some influences, and your money will be better spent purchasing some CDs--Claude Delangle, Eugene Rousseau, John-Edward Kelly, etc. (check out the recommended classical Cds thread)bluesaxgirl said:I have no influences. I just need a classical sound.
The classical sound comes mostly from the player, not the mouthpiece. Listening and practicing is the primary route to the sound you want.bluesaxgirl said:I have no influences. I just need a classical sound.
I've always thought that most "jazz" players are on the brighter side and that the "classical" sound tends to be much darker. I'm not saying its always that way... thats just my experience.bluesaxgirl said:I am interested in two sounds of the sax. A dark jazz sound and a classical.
