the site might have been down for a little while earlier today but try again should be ok.’

Paypal can be a little quirky at times….try one day and it doesnt go thru, then another time it will and it has nothing to do with anything I;’m aware of.

yes that’s a good sheet, easy to see and understand.
wether it’s alto to piano or piano to alto it’s the same interval just in reverse

I think it’s went thru now.

who doesn’t like Motown??!!

yes Top Tones…I got that when I started playing as a teenager…it’s a good one!

Malcolm, yes the backing without my sax is called the backing track…the one I call Full Mix has got my sax in it.

Hi Valerie, please try it again…I had to add you to the new level which I had not yet done until today.
If your existing password doesn’t work let me know and I’ll create another one.

no you don’t have to be a member, and you can buy any music downloads.
Registering does make it smoother to get you r download links easier.
But if you don’t receive them because you didn’t register just email me and I’ll send you the download links.

wow Leo very impressive.
what I do as performance time closes in, play the tune from the top and at the very first mistake STOP, go over the problem, work it out then start from the beginning again. If you worked out the problem you should play that part good now, if not keep going over it till you don’t screw it up again.

cool guys…ya I took on a little more that I bargained for but am hanging in there.
we basically gutted everything so it wasn’t just fixing a few things here and there….it’s everything!

The way I see it…
Playing is performing so to get the best performance we need to practise.
So playing is not practising.
When I play it’s with the intent to give my best possible performance.
To do that I need to go over the music carefully…stop and start over the more difficult parts etc as much as possible so when I’m performing it can all…[Read more]

Hi Gerard, yes it’s true…I can’t do that service anymore. Was very time consuming and like I said recently, with so many more gigs and other projects I just can’t do it.

for sure Tim…again very sorry I’ve had limited lime here….but try and post it here….last time I couldn’t get it in my email

ya got it Leo….been boating for about 20 years but only on smaller ones….this 35 footer is a big step!

Hey Guys…sorry about not being around as much. For a while now I have taken on way more gigs (playing live)
also, a few months ago I got a 35ft boat which we started to restore hoping to get into the water this summer so it’s been taking up most of my time.
hoping to get more time after the summer!

there is no regular or harder version….Over The Rainbow is only transcribed as an easy version

a mordent goes up to the next note and back down before hitting the following note…so if you’re going from F to E then you play F, G, F, E but the G and F are snuck in there without changing the time of the music as written
a trill is simply going back and forth between 2 notes like F and G over and over really fast.

Hey Leo that’s hilarious playing long with the full mix… sounds great tho and like you’re havin a ball and that’s what it’s all about.
looks like you’re starting a sax shop with all those horns lined up there!
what mic is that?

I just doubled checked and did see my email to you on March 4th with the video lessons link.
