The men of the Amstel have no fear, exclaimed the Dutch press about The Amstel Quartet, winner of the 2006 Concert Artists Guild International Competition. Its performances are riveting, filled with high energy, emotion and infectious dynamism. Its repertoire incorporates traditional works for saxophone quartet, contemporary compositions and interdisciplinary collaborations with dance, musical theatre and video. In the 2008-09 season, the Quartet performs coast-to-coast with recitals at Merkin Concert Hall in NYC and the Orange County Performing Arts Center in California, as well as at venues in Michigan, North Carolina, Virginia and upstate New York. Recent highlights include NYC appearances at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, on the Oath Concert for Darfur at the Angel Orensanz Foundation and at the Downtown NYC River to River Festival. The Amstel Quartets latest CD, Amstel Peijl, is set for release on the CAG Records label in Fall 2008. The disc includes landmark saxophone quartets by Glass and Glazunov and an arrangement of a Fauré quintet with pianist Wijnand van Klaveren. The group has previously released four discs, including their successful debut CD, Straight Lines.Of this disc, one critic correctly claimed Straight Lines reflects the versatility of the saxophone quartet and how the instruments rich sound lends itself so successfully to various musical genres. As part of CAGs New Music/New Places initiative, the Quartet has appeared in a special collaboration with video and dance at Monkeytown and on the Barbes Classical series at Barbes Bar and Performance Space, both in Brooklyn. The repertoire of the Amstel Quartet is original and inventive. From the mystery of Bachs Second Cello Suite in D to Michael Nymans music for the film The Piano, the four saxophonists unleash a palpable collective energy and gain fans with each performance. Composers, too, such as György Ligeti, Philip Glass, Michael Nyman and Arvo Pärt, have nothing but praise for the ingenious adaptations written by members of the Quartet. In addition to its recent victory at the CAG Competition, the ensemble garnered top prizes at the International Chamber Music Competition in Illzach, France, the Netherlands Gaudeamus Interpreters Competition and Ohios Chamber Music in Yellow Springs Competition. The Amstel Quartet has been heard in venues around the world including the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, the Vredenburg in the Utrecht, Sogukado Hall in Tokyo, Japan, the Stadtkirche in Darmstadt and toured Ireland, Luxembourg, Belgium and the Czech Republic.

Comparing 2 bass saxophones http://www.dixielandcrackerjacks.com Two bass saxophones, one Martin from 1921 and a Conn 14M Ladyface with rolled toneholes and keyed till high F. In fact, the Martin also came out of the Conn factory, since Martin never made basses themselves. It is a stencil. You will be able to hear the Martin in a medium swinging Blues and Conn in the Preacher. There are also some parts of old historical recordings featuring bass saxophones in this Video. Hear Coleman Hawkins in his best performance on Bass sax, Hop Off, the obscure version where Fletcher Henderson's tuba player didn't show up and Hawkins improvises his bass lines through the ensemble. Also two fine contributions by Adrian Rollini, the ultimate bass sax meastro. Part of Jazz Band Ball, with Bix Beiderbecke can be heard and his own composition: Dixie, dedicated to his wife, who had that name! Bert Brandsma tells stories, introduces the saxophones and playes them!

Mouthpiece exercises for saxophone and clarinet are one of the best methods to continually improve the sound. Furthermore, one can train the embouchure, the breathing and the articulation optimally. Daily exercises -- 5 minutes are enough -- are the key to a higher level of sound and intonation on the instrument. Through mouthpiece exercises you train exactly those muscles that are crucial to the playing of a saxophone or a clarinet: for the sound, for the intonation, for special effects as vibrato or bending, for high tones (high notes, top tones, altissimo, flageolettes). For beginners and for advanced players. For classic music, blues, soul, funk rock or folk. How can we understand this? Sound production, sound, sonority, and above all personal expressiveness, are controlled individually out of the throat and the oral cavity. Therefore the lips, the tongue, the palatine, the larynx, the vocal cords and breathing play a vital role (voicing). The interaction of all these aspects is complex and it is quite unexplainable how you can produce certain tones and whole melodies like this. You do not deliberately notice the processes but you can feel them. It is crucial, therefore, that you can hear the results and remember the corresponding "settings"! These findings prompted Joe Allard, the grand master of the woodwinds, to develop a new method of training and suitable exercises, among which are the mouthpiece exercises. With these exercises Joe Allard documented astonishing results while having comparatively little expenditure of time. Among his students were saxophonists as David Liebman, Michael Brecker, Stan Getz, Bob Berg and Glenn Miller whole sax section.
