Lew Tabakin and Ralph Lalama are the 2 I know who taught it a lot, but I wouldn't doubt it goes back further! This is The Boston Sax Shop S-Series 7*. I recently got it back out and I've been enjoying how it records
Did you know for the people where you set your ligature can make a difference It you have it set on the bottom where the screws are on the read you'll get a more dark tone and if you have it on top of the mouthpiece you'll get a brighter tone.
I am beginner and want That Dark Sound. I for a jody hr custom Dark 8* and use à very hard reed(3mm francois Louis). It is very hard to play but the Sounds is so nice!
Maybe I’m missing something but I honestly don’t know what this is supposed to be recommending as a technique. Play different neighboring notes? Tongue? Ok
I've been in two bands over fifteen years. I have recordings of them on TH-cam. Complete songs. I've recorded solo work and duo and trio work with other pro musicians..I have like around 100 views on my videos...this kid is telling us how to warm up a horn and he has nearly 5000 views. Somebody explain this to me.
well I'm not a kid, I play professionally 🤔 but its all about knowing your audience and providing value. Musicians used to get by just by playing, but nowadays anyone can play.
I agree with you.. i play 25 years in events (20 or 25 songs per event with the best sound and quality) and have 100 complete videos on youtube, with 100 or 200 views only! . What happens with youtube algoritm??!!
I thought I invented this exercise 35 years ago LOL. I am 76 now. It is great! I really enjoy your
videos. What mouthpiece are you on here?

@@SaxSpy Thank you!
Great, now get me a tutorial on how to do a bright, crispy sound like Masato Honda and David Sanborn.
This is a familiar exercise! You actually sent me this one over discord last year
yep, I find it's a really versatile one that works for a lot of people!
arent you in the saxophone discord server i swear your pfp is familiar
@@aferdeath9320 Yeah I am but I use a different pfp now
@@jorkles4691 ahh yes you were the tenor proto very cool

reed!
Where should you put it then
Does it matter what type of ligature you have? Brass or any of the others?
I started doing this a few years back and it totally changed my sound. 👌🏼10/10 warm up for Tone
Love this video as always! Keep up the great content!
thank you!

Is that forked F mechanism an added feature of your horn? If so can you explain what it is?
yes! ill do a reel/short about it
@@SaxSpy cool thanks!
How about that Colin Stetson, cosmic direness?

it's working on the voicing for lower notes without being hidden by articulation. full pdf is on my website saxspy.com
Is there a way to make the low G on tenor less blairy? It's the only note on this instrument I struggle with, especially coming down from middle D up.
could be a key height issue
how to get that airy dark stan getz sound?
but the ligature
it's the BSS Superlative! highly recommended

this sounds like my clarinet
Sell, sell, plug. 😂 Listen to Bird and Trane, transcribe and work the Raschér book. That’ll be $0. Thx.
