8:04 This is when he starts talking about doodn tonguing

Jeff's alto sound is BEAST!!!!!!

This is also called “Half Tonguing”. It’s a brilliant technique to have and Jeff explains it PERFECTLY! Frankly, I like the term “Dood-N Tonguing” better! Well done!

His sound reminds me of Cannonball's on Know What I Mean, and I've ALWAYS wondered why the saxophone playing sounded so different on that album.

this is so cool

So I have a similar ligature to the one Jeff used in this video. So I decided to tighten it down a bit more and holy shit the difference

I like the vintage62

Great sound. Thanks for sharing

Sounds great!

That is a money making sound!! Great fun here!

Sounds great! :)

Thanks Sylvain . Jeff sounded great . Best wishes Murray

That is NOT the doodle da doodle da articulation that I use. This articulation NEVER TOUCHES THE REED. You are actually disturbing the air flow just enough to bring out the silence of about 7-10 milliseconds that occurs between each legato note on all woodwind instruments. The inventor of the Lyricon, Bill Bernardi, who discovered this fact when he was studying how wind instruments worked. This allows the player to articulate each note without getting the rinky dink sound that tonguing each note by touching the reed bring. If you let your tongue move by saying doodle doodle for sixteenth notes and doodle da for triplets, you will learn to disturb the airflow just enough to get this to work. Consider the fact that today’s most popular solo sounds (guitar, keyboards) articulate just about every note. They are very percussive. Done correctly this is a uniquely jazz articulation. You can play the same bebop lines that you normally played legato with this technique without killing the swing because it is a much more subtle way to separate the notes, it adds rhythmic propulsion to your lines, which allows you to emulate the current popular solo sounds like the synthesizers. I also would recommend practicing rhythmically accurate vibrato (3 per beat, four to the beat) and dynamic exercises for swelling sounds that emulate a resonant filter sweep by adding harmonics (brightness) to your sound as you swell the note. I can achieve this by moving the mouthpiece in and out which changes the brightness that your reed can produce. Having worked mostly as a studio musician and as a sideman on many contemporary jazz projects I am very much aware of how the sound palate of music has been changed by technology. There are many sounds in the world that did not exist in the world that our jazz hero’s lived in. If they had lived longer we might have seen more artists changing their sound like Miles did. I plan on creating a KZfaq lesson for this, and other techniques I have learned from my great teachers Zip Zantay (my father) Joe Allard, Lee Konitz, and Sam Rivers.

Your sound is very beautiful. The doo den can be done using the mute tongue technique. I had this doubt and your video helped to clarify. Thank you!

I recognize his signature sound from Big Phat Band. 👍

Loving the Vandoren zz ‘s

Great sound, it sings

Holy Smokes....He's a monster

MESTRE MESTRE

I love that Mouthpiece l play on a CEWinds Mouthpiece The Mainstream Mambo Java

He looks like my music instructor! Is that you Mr eads?

Please, is this style of Ligature available for V16 S+ Mouth Piece?

Be-bop tonguing? Or half tonguing ?

Did you not have a second mic for the host?

V16 A6S is the BEST

Gus Hiddink??

Which reed and number does he use?

What is your saxophone 🎷 called ? 🌹✌️

Stardust?
