So nice to see a saxophonist play this beautifully that doesn't have circular breathing. Make me feel more inspired ✨️
An extraordinary performance of JS Bach music for a single voice! I particularly liked the Saraband at 8 minutes. His soprano playing at 13 1/2 minutes is superb! Listen and see if you too, admire Nobuya Sugawa's musicality!
It’s a pleasure and a privilege to hear Mr. Sugawa playing anytime, his passion and technicality are always unsurpassed . Bravo.
I love hearing instruments played in unexpected music genres. And to hear someone so skilled makes it even better.

Unexpected?! Well I guess most people don't know that the saxophone was made for classical music, but because of "saxophone biases" in the classical community there hasn't been many pieces written for it. Its sad that the common consensus around the classical community is "saxophone bad, clarinet good", but thankfully that has been fastly changing.

Unfortunately, the classical and romantic periods are over, and most new composers write that 12-tone rubbish. At least we can still adapt old music to fit the saxophone.

The entire saxophone family should, it's the perfect bridge between the woodwinds and brass sections.

I don't feel any expresion, I hear it very flat. Does anyone think the same? I may be wrong.

You may be hearing tones flat because you are used to hearing in 442hz. Many saxophonists are used to tuning to 440hz.

@@mitchparker6319 If you have perfect pitch, yes. Although, I wonder if people really hear it when ALL notes are in 440Hz. I mean: there are still saxophones tuning in 440 Hz and nobody is complaining that it is flat. I think JachaTaita hears something different: SOME notes might be flat (I didn’t hear it), or he/she is just not used to the tone color of Nobuya Sugawa.
