OSO - Bari Sax Low Note Tips

This video is about OSO - Bari Sax Low Note Tips

[@shaniraath5135]

I’m switching to bari sax for a marching band show after playing alto for six years, and this really helped!!! I found that “popping” as you said in the video is super helpful for my piano low b flat entrances

[@ishmaelstylinson223]

I was literally crying cause I’ve been practicing for 2 months for a Seven nation army solo audition and I couldn’t even get to a low b thank you so much

[@biggychezey2883]

for a tuba player switching to a bari sax. This really, really helped. I kept trying to play songs with low notes and i could not start the note without a highnote starting it

[@mudmyth]

I just switched from alto to bari and I've been having this same problem. I'm getting more used to the embouchure shift and air amount.

[@anthony-ud4to]

I have the opposite situation. I can play high on tuba, however can't get low notes for the life of me 😂😂

[@craigscott3133]

I love how you played the note in your head before playing it on the mouthpiece. We are our own tuners.

WOW - I could have used your video 50 yrs ago...i use to dread the song 'Antares' because of the low (b flat?) note i would choke on, and it was 50-50 that i would play it an octave higher...hahahhah thank you...once my neck strap broke in the middle of a marching band half time show!

I decided to switch to Bari Sax from Bass Guitar in my Jazz band and this helped me control my low Bb from being all over the place.

[@choiaf.4213]

just something i noticed at 1:30, the notes you played are concert F and F#, for bari sax they’re written as D and Eb

[@choiaf.4213]

but super helpful video thank you!!!!

Popping the note! This is a game changer! W this little trick i can play all my low notes legato! Thanks so much!!! Open q: by just popping these low notes and not playing from a fully closed position, am i not developing my breath control and embouchure as well as i otherwise could? Does it matter? Thanks again!

[@cliffrobinson1991]

Thank you. I have never heard of popping the low note. It works for me.

[@franciscosantos847]

any other tip that you recomend to playing the low notes with ease? can you play low notes soft/subtone

[@caprobs]

Thank you so much I've been struggling so bad

[@ChrisF_1982]

I can easily get my low a to speak, but my b and b flat are a bit sketchy. The thing is I just had it checked out. I'm using a new mouthpiece though, and am still adjusting to it.

[@kingbob7476]

Thanks so much!

[@ChrisF_1982]

I've been playing for 30 years, but am pretty new to bari, but I'm used to playing on Nexus reeds on Tenor and alto, with very good effortless response on low notes, but they unfortunately don't make them for bari. I need to figure out my reed situation.

This video was so helpful!!!!

[@wells4682]

what type of saxophone is that

[@j1b9r44]

Well done video. I will try some of these things definitely.

[@skepticGFX]

The reason why the "popping" works is because for a split second, you are on a g note and its practically slurring from a g to a d really fast

[@robert19]

yes. very similar to 'flicking' technique used on bassoons.

[@godoftune]

I just started and I keep playing the low notes high up😭

[@wells4682]

your bari and my bari sounds completely different. mine sounds jazzy or some like

[@Loser_-zn7wz]
