Hi all, as some of you requested on that recent Eric Marienthal solo transcription, here is how you do that epic glissando up into the altissimo! Hope this helps, let me know if it worked out for you in the comments here. Decided to add the technique for that false fingering thing he does a couple of times as well. Note: I have a new setup, and little time. So there are a few edit mess ups as well as the sound could have been better. I think the message is still clear, but sorry for that. Don't have the time to do another take, my toddler is jumping on me now. --> If you want to expand on these techniques, check out our "Ultimate False Fingering Guide" here: www.sharpelevenmusic.com/the-ultimate-false-fingering-guide Or for to sound like a Sax Pro in a few fundamental steps, there is a course on that here: www.sharpelevenmusic.com/saxophone-fundamentals-how-to-sound-like-a-pro Subscribe and like for plenty of free jazz and saxophone content, /Jorre

“So how does that work? First - well you need to know how to play Altissimo…”😂😂

Excellent content. Ken Park was an alto player from KC who would demo at my college in the 90s. He did that same gliss and blew all of our minds.

Thank you for reading my mind! I was so close to commenting on the last video asking how you do the gliss because I think its such a cool effect to add to solos and you read my mind! Much love for the explanation!!

Great video. I have often wondered about Eric's gliss sound. You made it very clear. The false fingering was also v useful. Bravo.

Thank You! So many great ideas in this lesson.

Nicely done Jorre.

Eric does the half tongue on the right side. I do too. He thinks it’s because we’re both left handed.

thanks btw

As a follow up to this crazy high note stuff you ought to do a transcript of earl Bostic up there in orbit! 😉

If you use the first two fingers in your right hand, like playing an E, you can play an A and get the same effect without it being out of tune😢

lol
