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

Jorre, Sharp Eleven Music, I am enjoying your artistry and inspiration. -What mouthpiece are you using on this video? -Also, did you decide to stick with your Beechler or the Retro-Revival EM model? (I saw your other video on these two mouthpieces). I wish you health and joy and many more rapturous musical moments. Dr D

@@dr.rolanddavis Hi Roland, thanks for the kind words. I'm using the Retro revival Eric Marienthal model here, which kinda answers your second question I guess. At the time of making the comparison video, it was really freshly bought and I think I just shed a few hours on the mouthpiece. I was unsure at the time and "afraid" to lose a bit of the bottom thickness with the Retro, despite it being way more comfortable than the Beechler. But soon after making that video and spending time recording myself more with it and listening back + using it live on stage I got completely convinced. Never looked back and really happy with it for most of what I play (besides my Paul Desmond project, which has of course a complete opposite sound image to display) It's expensive, but it's quality. Hope this helps, all the best! /Jorre

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.

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

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😢
