  • Randal Clark teaches a lesson on splitting altissimo notes to get that overblown, cracked, dirty, feedback, raspy, screaming, multiphonic growl sound effect out of your sax high tones.

    The greatest are yet quite unsung/unheard.
    The world is really unfair; isn't it?
    Thanks for knowing Randal Clark who deserves millions - wrongfully bequeathed to others [smile]
    Thanks for the video, Randal, Cannonball and, of course, You Tube.

    I'm a beginner and play that way a lot. My family is about to smash my horn
    if I keep making that infernal noise.
    So thanks for sharing what not to play.

    I found what I think is the fingering chart on Cannonball Music. It's an altissimo chart for alto with some splitting fingerings. Here it is : www.cannonballmusic.com/media/cb_altosax_altissimo.pdf

    Maestro Clark, you are a bad MoFo; your sound on your great singles reminds me of Mindi Abair's, another tremendous player. This was helpful, I've had a hard time getting the feedback into my altissimo!

      Appropriate analogy. Personally, the first person that pops into my mind is Cannonball -- but, I get Sanborn, as well.

    • @MarcKellerSax
      @MarcKellerSax 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends on the mouthpiece your playing it on and how your chops work with this setup =) When it comes to learning stuff in the altissimo range you don't want your reed to feel too soft, so it'll give you some resistance against the urge to pinch when playing up there.

    hello Sir , I have question for you I know that you practice a lot have you ever had upper back sharp pain going to right hand, and I can not play I recently practice more than 5 hours a day and I have terrible right hand pain I play sitting in one position pls lmk pls share your experience thank you

    • @randalclarkmusic4333
      @randalclarkmusic4333 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes I have.. Playing for a long time with your neck hunched over can cause issues with your upper spine. I have had this happen and cause numbness in my arms. Try a different neck strap designed to take the pressure off of your neck, or practice with the sax supported on a stand instead of your neck. Always try to play with your spine as upright and straight as possible.

  • @kencustalow6471
    @kencustalow6471 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is a great video. I can the what sounds like the undertone growl, but it's more like a buzz.
    He doesn't mention humming at the same time. Can anybody give me some advice on that please?

    • @ogulkoker
      @ogulkoker 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think what he does is not growling, but multiphonics... He says growl, because it sounds like a growl :)

    • @Paul41186
      @Paul41186 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      1st off it's not a hum. Listen to what he says and follow his lead you'll do it in no time but you have to make sure to push a lot of air thru your horn.

    • @JeremyMcCant
      @JeremyMcCant 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Split tones don't necessarily come from growling, use very fast air and open your throat and thr notes will split easier. With an open throat, you can split from middle G# to middle D.
