This is very useful, but for growling you can also just sing a separate pitch into your sax

I love this guys. I need to practice i am such a beginner but i wanna get better. So Much can be done on the sax. I have the alto my grandmother used to own. I should play it for none other then her honer. And for the sake of jazz. God bless Scott

It's super helpful to work on isolating the notes in a multiphonic. Helps with altissimo and voicing a lot too.

Yeah, being able to control your airstream is super helpful with altissimo.

"Hey Scott, your tone is so dark and legit - are you a classical player??" Said no-one, ever. Love your output dude - solid advice as ever.

@ScottPaddock 3 жыл бұрын

Funny enough, I got my degree in classical saxophone performance. My classical setup was a C star, Vandoren purple box 3s, and a Rovner ligature. If you heard me play classical back in the day, you would have no idea I was into progressive funky sax music. That's part of where my extreme detailed attention to articulations and dynamics came from.

Hey! I just completed my first year learning the alto. I’m playing on a yamah4c mouth piece with a 3 reed. Should I be interested in trying other mouth pieces?

@ScottPaddock 3 жыл бұрын

Hey! Yamaha 4C is a really solid beginner mouthpiece. When you're ready for a step up go with something that is pretty easy to control (no baffles, etc) - something like a Meyer 5M. Reed size is all subjective, so there really isn't a correct reed size. I play Legere American Cut 2.25

Hi Scott I have a question, if I want to join the sax school online how you will teach me by video lessons? or by person on camera xzoom in private? Thanks

@ScottPaddock 3 жыл бұрын

It is a series of video courses all in order taking your step by step. You choose the level you are at (beginner, intermediate, etc) and then watch the videos. In every video I tell you what we're going to work on, do lots of play alongs, and give you downloadable PDFs. They are set up the exact same way that I teach private lessons.

Today after 20+ years of playing someone finally clarifies that Tone Splitting is just growling in the altissimo range. I always thought it was just this... mysterious thing only super-pros could do. Picked up my tenor today and went through my altissimo range. Yep. That's it.

@ScottPaddock Жыл бұрын

A lot of pro players try to describe it as something else, but it's essentially the exact same thing - growl on an altissimo note, and you've got a split tone 😁

It's fantastic, but i have a question: it is growl is the same as Split tone on the high note?

For me it also works if I just hum with my voice, just like singing a note. I can just keep singing one note and play different notes on the sax and they also sound like growling. I don't know if this technique is legit though :).

Scott love your channel, but my understsnding is split tones are NOT just a "growl on altissimo" and they are more of a multiphonic by overblowing. Some altissimo fingerings are not as clean and the note wante to "break" or split. Sanborn is NOT growling from what many many others have stated.

@ScottPaddock Жыл бұрын

Hey! Yes, you can get a split tone from a false fingering, (my side F# almost always produces a split tone) but the easiest way to get a split tone in the altissimo is to growl.

Multiphonics can be achieved by "false fingerings" & multiphonics can be precisely notated.

@ScottPaddock 2 жыл бұрын

True! This was a two-minute overview of what multiphonics are and how they compare to split tones and growling so I didn't go into a lot of detail about all of the ins and outs.

@ericmalone3213 2 жыл бұрын

@@ScottPaddock I think it'd be great to take 20 seconds showing an example of "false fingering" and quickly explain how the air column is being broken in order to get the multiphonic. Your playing is superb.

@bobpremecz5429 3 жыл бұрын

I still don't like the sound of multiphonics. They are the "MULITs" (mullets) of the sax sounds. FYI - if you want to hear more of them, just teach 1st year students!
