Dave Brown Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Y'all keeping me busy fixin' them quotes! I presume you have been trying to type in the UBB code, which uses brackets, and then "QUOTE" to start a quote and "/QUOTE" to end one. If you just click the "" in the top line of a post, it will quote automatically. In Ross and loumalones' posts, each of you attempted to quote with a "/" first. Yep. I'm the other voice in the head of davebrownbass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy c Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Sax players in concert bands and big band jazz bands get to read transposed music. Professional sax players in small groups have to transpose everything from the concert pitch. One of the reasons why I admire my friend Norbert Stachel, sax and multi-instrumentalist, so much is his ability to read and transpose. On the gigs I have played with him over the last 20 years all the music is written in concert key (for C instruments). Norbert has showed up with instruments in C, G, Eb, Db, and Bb. I've never heard him make a reading mistake (or any other kind of mistake for that matter). Once he showed up with a few penny whistles and switched between two mid song in order to play notes which were not in the key of the first whistle. You can hear him on this cd. He's the tenor sax soloist. Free download of my cd!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpedebass Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Originally posted by UTS-D: Bass is a B instrument. "Bass" starts with the letter B therefore it is a B instrument... HA! Love God...Love People! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil W Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Jeremy, I heard Norbert on some Peter Apfelbaum CDs. If I remember right, he plays a whole bunch of instuments. I'll check out the T.O.P. CD. http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
