I really shouldn't record these after 4 hours of practice, but here is my alto attempt.

I'm no soprano player, but what the hell. I can use the critique.

@GCinCT

I don't know what's the correct english expression... lively, speedy, brisk, quick?
I like that alto one very much! Perhaps you should always practice for four hours before recording! It works!

Thank you! Those are fine English expressions! I like this tune at a more moderate tempo on alto for some reason.

I will be away from tomorrow for a week without wifi so I'd like to take this opportunity to thank @last for being such a wonderful host this month.

The thread won't close so keep contributing.

I forgot that I recorded this a few weeks ago during my monthly short recording session!

Still issues with sound bleeding and distortion in the recording since I got a new laptop, but here is my take anyhow:

- 'Blue Moon' (Florida no USA 10* - Rico Royal 2) - 100 bmp:
MP3 Player SoundClick

Timing is much better... you could hear backing?

Lots of pep

I agree - the timing problems seem to have gone. Congratulations.

Thank you! Yes. I turned up the volume on the back in track.

I know it's no longer August, but I wanted to share this recording.
My sax quartet have "Blue Moon" in their regular repertoire, and I recorded all of tonight's rehearsal.

This recording is "as is" - just in my house, I haven't edited this at all.

I hope you enjoy it. I think it's a rather good arrangement by Kenneth Abeling, published by Lincoln Music.

I just played this tune again for the SOTW beginners intermediates TOTM.
A different set up this time.
Conn 1933 Baritone with an old Designed by Arnold Brilhart Hard Rubber Mouthpiece.
Originally a 4 tip but opened to .110 by Brian Powell.
And my trusty old Fibracell 3.5.
