How to Play a D Minor 7th Chord on the Saxophone

MIYANNA NIELSEN: Minor 7th chord in D. It's pretty easy actually. We got D, F, A, C, all natural notes. If we go with the minor 3rd above, the higher octave, you go up to your high F. You may leave the D, the high D down with the octave key if it's easier for you if you find that the pitch doesn't get too sharp on your particular make of saxophone.
