Soplando

Take your sax, tune it
When it's ready, give me a C scale
No matter if it's soprano
Alto or tenor
Blow it on time, close your eyes
Feel it in your heart

Measure the notes as you phrase
It all depends on what you're going to play
Don't forget to practice them with fingering
Try to do it with a lot of rhythm
And take care of the tuning

You're going to hear
How a tavito solo sounds
How the notes vibrate around it
Like an F major arpeggio
F, A, D, E, G

You're going to hear
How it moves from one chord to another
How it reharmonizes without changing position
You're going to learn everything with dedication

Take your sax, tune it
When it's ready, give me a C scale
No matter if it's soprano
Alto or tenor
Blow it on time, close your eyes
Feel it in your heart
And start improvising

[improv.]

Blow, tavito...
