i play a tenor sax. so i was wondering if anybody knows where i can get notes for songs that are out today?

Question

Our marching band already learned morris brown and in the ghetto so we are looking for the notes for the song we fly high

Answer 1

If you can sing it you can play it. Take the time to figure the notes out. It really helps to develop a great musical ear. Better yet after you figure out the notes to play, write them down!

Answer 2

Go to a music store, look at Fake books. Remember... Tenor Sax plays in Bb. If you end up with a Piano book, Piano is concert pitch. Bb instruments always play one step up.

Example: the piano part is in Bb Concert, (2 flats) take that up one step, which is C, no sharps or flats, that is what the Tenor Sax will play. If the piano is playing in E concert, that is 4 sharps, take it up one step, which is F-sharp (remember E-F is only half a step, must go to F#) that is 6 sharps....

Good luck...

Answer 3

Your best bet is to go to your local music store and buy the guitar or piano score to the songs you're looking for. It's not all that difficult to find just about any songs- otherwise, literally, try making it up! Sit down at a piano, download Finale Notepad (freeware, link at bottom), and write out the music yourself! Enjoy!

Also, remember that if you're trying to play with someone/ with piano, Tenor is in Bb... I've made that mistake a few times.

you have to pay for the music, but once you do- you can print out as many copies as you want, play it online as much as you want, change the key, slow it down, speed it up--- its great! they also have a pretty large selection and its all legal
