I love the movie The Godfather, do any of you know what notes (I know computers do not have note keys!, but just A, B, G, D, F#, etc.) are in the main theme using an Alto Saxophone.

Also the same with The Simpsons theme (that one is for my son!)

I don't mean to sound condescending/cold but learning these tunes by ear first is the best way to go. Yeah, us posting the notes is an easy way out, but unless you need them like pronto, try learning them by ear. It'll help you out a ton as a musician.

Hey that's great that you're playing for your son! Kind of like how Kirk Whalum writes tunes for his children. Take care and good luck!
