i’m 15 and just a few weeks ago finally had that click moment for the high g. i can play up to an a and maybe sometimes squeak out a high b flat now. hasn’t gotten old yet! it’s such a good feeling, especially after my teacher told me that he couldn’t get the g until he was 18. i’ve played for 5 years now for reference. best advice to anyone like me who’s almost there is just to kind of leave your tongue slightly off the reed and pull you lower jaw back. do not bite hard. good luck!

I took a couple lessons from Dave Tofani that focused on overtones; Dave taught in the same department as Allard and knows Allard's methods well. I haven't bought Ben's book yet, but look forward to it.

Hi Jay; back in 1971 I was the only sax major my college had ever had and they actually were able to bring Sigurd Rascher to the school for a 3 day workshop and back then no one even knew about this. to watch him play that old Buescher alto with his spec. mouthpiece was unbelievable. He had control better than anyone has ever gotten.

After two years of almost useless trying, I unlocked altissimo in like three days using the Jazzlab's Silencer. To me, it's not a mouthpiece silencer, it's an embouchure educator. You can't hold a pitch if your embouchure is faulty (unlike when on the sax), and once you realise how to raise the pitch using that, while trying to play a whole octave with your mouthpiece only, you've found your path. After learning to play a whole octave, I put my mouthpiece on the sax and the first note that came out while fingering a low Bb was altissimo Ab. I was done. Now I recommend it to anyone.

@davidbernot9796 2 жыл бұрын

Awesome video! Bought the book a few months ago and love it! Still mostly been working on the overtones pages because I’ve struggled with the fingerings, but I already have my own fingerings that’s work pretty well so this inspires me to get going past the fingering pages and get into some of the exercises!

Hey Jay! Just bought Ben's book! Thanks for sharing man!.... As probably 90% of sax students, I've been practicing with Sigurd Raschèr's book... He really played effortlessly any altissimo note. But Ben's approach is refreshing and more "updated" (Raschèr's book was written in the early 40's). As both of you said several times during the interview, in order to be able to reach the altissimo range, we need to walk the path... there are no shortcuts ... so, quoting other great youtubers... "pick up your horn and... go practice", "practice hard, practice smart and enjoy your music "...LOL ;) Keep it up man! Amazing content ALWAYS!

Since starting your courses a year ago, I've been practicing overtones as a part of my warm-up routine (after long tones), at least most of the time. I still can't hit any altissimo note with confidence except for altissimo D, for some reason or another! I'm hoping this book will finally get me over the hump!

@noahtruth6554 3 жыл бұрын

I’m so far away from altissimo that I thought you were talking about breath mints. I can play up to a weak high F#. I believed that altissimo started at high G because it stands for Gerald Albright. Glad to hear that the fingerings are not the key to altissimo because I’ve tried many just to get to F#. I’ll be adding overtones and voicing to my practice with the hope of adding altissimo to my range. Thanks for another excellent video in addition to your BetterSax lessons. Thanks again.

This is a great video. I love it. I don't expect that I will explore the altissimo register that much because most or the notes sound "out of tune" to me. I liked it because it taught me that the notes on the saxophone are acquired by voicing not just by fingering. it's important to learn a song by ear and sing the notes. I've experienced that, when I play a note that is in my head even though i may not be fingering it right, the note will play. I would classify myself as an advanced beginner. I'm 79 years old and play most of my tunes by ear.

I agree with the whole conversation a 100%. I practice and play regularly over 4 octaves on my bari (sort of my main instrument..), I've been practicing voicing/overtones daily forever (both the Rascher book and the Eugene Rousseau book have been invaluable sources, way back when). As far as fingerings I remember a lesson with the great late Hamiet Bluiett at his place in NYC where we exchanged fingerings 'til we came up with the "best" little chart for the bari (we both had a Selmer early low A, before he traded it in for a Conn). Minimal movement (just like Ben says), best intonation, easiest response. Great content, thank you!

@andrescastro8198 3 жыл бұрын

I'm not bluffing, but I'm really happy today as I started my alto sax journey six months ago and by thinking the same way as Ben Wendel (the altissimo is part of the horn nature), I begun practicing altissimo a month ago and today I was able to blow the high altissimo G twice (G4). I played it on my cheap '95 Selmer Bundy II, Yamaha A5 mouthpiece and a 2.5 Vandoren Green Box-Reed. I been familiar with playing music, but always with strings (guitars and basses) so I know a little bit of what I'm dealing with. I have to agree also with Ben: The higher you go with your notes, the narrow the window becomes related with getting the note you want, but I also know it's a natural thing when you find them. Make a memory on your mind and keep on practicing. More sooner than later you'll find yourself playing these notes easier, but it doesn't show up without compromise and dedication. Thanks Jay.

Thank you for the great content and info regarding altissimo. Bill, obviously you have gained great control of it. I would point out that Joe Allard said that the control came from the front of the mouth with vowel sounds and tongue positions. Any changes in the "voice" was a passive reaction to what happened up front. Respectfully, I would suggest that, if you have to worry about a time limit on an exercise, maybe you shouldn't do it. I try to, and teach students to, as Joe Allard said, to keep the throat (and "area of the throat") relaxed.

Overtones…. Long tones… breathe control, basically, basics… him and Scott paddock helped a ton for altissimo. I was able to hit notes in a solo for years but he really opened it up for me. Thanks! I’d say better sax helped with things like practice methods and things to practice. use the fsharp key for chromatic runs. As it raises the notes a half step in a certain range and it together with the f trill gives a whole step. Scales and chord practice help a ton. So like add 3rd g sharp or g and act like your in 6th grade and play the scale from first octave to 3rd and just keep adding scales a half step at a time in major and minor keys.

I wanted to play Shotgun but how the hell was Jr getting those notes? Fast forward to the 21st century me. I'm ok venturing into some altissimo but need to refine what I'm doing. Oh if I could only get a consistent altissimo G. Ben's book looks like a worthy investment. Thanks Jay for presenting it to us and thanks Ben for writing this book.
