Posted on September 11, 2011September 13, 2011 By ericdano No Comments on Superscope Elevation (Stay away…..zombies!)

So I get the Jamey Aebersold jazzbooks emails. In their latest “Economic Stimulus Sale!” one, at the bottom something got my interest. Elevation Software play-along offer. Hmm…sounded interesting.

Posted on September 11, 2011September 21, 2012 By 2 Comments on Posts on John Coltrane’s improvisation approaches, Coltrane Changes, and some improvisation ideas

Dear Jazz-Saxists, Greetings~ Not long ago, I began to write some casual posts relating to Jazz improvisation ideas and approaches, about Coltrane Changes, John Coltrane, and some off-the-cuff ramblings in my little site at www.jkchang.com.  These posts, collected in the “Dialogue” series, were really fun to write (and I hope they are also fun to…

Carbon Fiber Necks?

Posted on June 22, 2011 By ericdano No Comments on Carbon Fiber Necks?

For any wind instrument, composite materials may replace copper to produce stiffer, lighter and shock resistant bodies, which may be particularly attractive for large brass…

Sheet Of The Week – Careless Whisper (Wham)

Posted on June 18, 2011May 20, 2012 By ericdano No Comments on Sheet Of The Week – Careless Whisper (Wham)

Ok, you’ve seen that stupid SexySaxmanSaxogram video right? This is the song that has that opening lick in it. Not a bad song at all, just some idiots decided to be obnoxious and video them playing it where people don’t want it played.

Terrible Quality Of Music Minus One Play-Alongs

Posted on May 19, 2011 By ericdano No Comments on Terrible Quality Of Music Minus One Play-Alongs

I own a few Music Minus one play-alongs. A clarinet one that has the Stamitz concerto on it, and the one that has the Bolling Suite for flute, and the one that has J.S. Bach Suite No. 2 on it. Those are excellent. I tried out one called “Baroque Play-Along for Tenor Saxophone”. Yikes. Terrible….
