i’m probably totally overthinking this, but do the episode subjects for this season relate to the professor hologram? adolphe sax couldn’t be killed, so the hologram is also going to be harder to get rid of (that episode the professor also mentioned that the hologram and algorithm were left unattended in the dumpster). wu zetian was ruthless in becoming emperor, so the hologram will do anything to take the professor’s place. robert liston related to the hologram skinning ryan, so i feel like it’s not too much of a stretch

ok so. adolphe sax's death. now i know almost zero details about this but it seems like if a saxophone player had a grotesque lip swelling that an injection of herbs cured, that would be an infection right? the herbs grow mold, that mold is penicillin, an antibiotic treats the infection and hes fine. plus, he died of pneumonia a few years later, which is also a potential symptom of infection. i am not a doctor but perhaps the "tumor" on his lip was just a really bad infection?

Wonderful Things That May or May Not Be Wonderful!!! What instrument is most synonymous with the musical style of jazz? Some might say the trumpet or the piano but for my money, the answer is clear: the saxophone. Created in 1846 by Belgian instrument builder, Adolphe Sax, the phone that carries his name was meant to be the bridge between brass and woodwind instruments. Over time, it was clear that its distinct sound and wide dynamic range made it especially suited to improvisational solos. Maybe that's why it was picked up by famous jazz aficionados like Charlie Parker and John Coltrane. Maybe that's why the instrument seems to stand out whenever it is brought into a piece. That's not always the case. More subdued or "classical" saxophones do exist. Heck, there is nothing that says the instrument has to be used in a jazz composition. Still, it is something to think about. Whatever the case, nothing beats that saxophone sound, solo or otherwise. Unique, prolific, and stylish to boot. The saxophone is most definitely wonderful.

AVeryCanadianFilm: Physics and Jazz

Samuel H. Lawson's notebook: Topic - the importance of equity, diversity, and inclusion in mathematics and physics.

Adolphe Sax (1814 - 1894) was a Belgium musician and inventor, he invented the saxophone around 1840. The saxophone was used by Europeans to make various types of European music. I seriously doubt anyone in Europe could have predicted the kind of music made by John Coltrane, Charlie Parker et al., using the saxophone. Bartolomeo Cristofori (1655-1731), an Italian, invented the piano. The piano was used by Europeans to make various types of European music. I seriously doubt anyone in Europe could have predicted the kind of music made by Jelly Roll Morton, Art Tatum et al., using the piano, and so on and so forth. The point is obvious. Instruments and techniques created by people of one culture are free to be used by people from a different culture to create something new and worthwhile, if they are given the opportunity.

Saxophone History Podcast Episodes 1 & 2

I’m very pleased to be publishing the first couple of episodes of a new podcast I’ve been working on for a while. It’s called The Saxophone History Podcast and the idea is to take a look at the lives of the most interesting people who have played the saxophone throughout history. It’s a thoughtful, researched, and slightly irreverent look at our collective history as saxophonists. I’m going to…
