    Hi, Jamie, greetings from South Korea. THis morning I aaplied Your teaching of altissimo and embouchure and it was the first time in my life I could play the altissimo G and sustain it, not only with my main mouthpiece, but also with other cheap mpcs! Thanks! SO far I have watched many videos and everytime I faild to get the G

    Thanks God! I think you're the first UA-cam teacher that talks about the lip scoop as an error. I'm studing classical alto sax embouchure and it's a real help in recording sessions. It´s a shame that a lot of teacher talks the opposite. Thank you, Jamie!

      Even jazz greats define scoops as an error in some cases. It's so dreadful when trying to play with bands and you're always getting soloed out for scooping.

    < I don´t remember which video it was but your analogy of the " finger pressure on the water hose" witholding the air right behind the MP then letting it shoot out by just opening the reed really enlightened my wonder on how "Tower of Power" Horn section, and the like, had such a tight stacatto. There is a latency or lag from the moment one´s brain sends( diaphgram, lungs, throat, tongue,jaw, lips) the signal to the whole body to BLOW and...I guess that´s how I was blowing, you know, like a diaphgram stacatto. Correcting Bad Habit then. THANK YOU !¡!

    Good video. Neither of my sax tutors touched on the larynx; I discovered it for myself when I accidentally yawned while practicing! 😀
    I'll check out more of your videos. BTW your lighting is at a good angle to show your larynx muscles without looking freaky! 👍

    Hi Jamie, thanks for this.
    Quick question: is the third option the best method if you’re scooping smoothly from way below the target note? For example from C to E (or even from a lower starting note). Or the larynx only method makes more sense for that type of long scoop?

  • @frithsoken
    @frithsoken 3 роки тому +2

    I have only been playing just under a year and am trying to tune such that I am on the sharp side and then concentrating on dropping the larynx to keep in tune. The answer to my next question is probably to do your tone mastery course which I have mulled over however for now; if my larynx is already dropped how will I drop it any further?

    • @GetYourSaxTogether
      @GetYourSaxTogether  3 роки тому

      Hi Francesca! Like you said, the answers are all in TTM, but unless you can blow a range of probably an octave and a minor third, just on your mouthpiece then there’s plenty more flexibility in your larynx. Don’t forget there’s a 60 day refund on TTM so it’s a risk free purchase. If you don’t like it, send it back!

    @janjung5651 3 роки тому +1

    Yeah, that's all good but I still have to find any advice on how I practice moving my larynx up and down. It can be done by moving my jaw up and down but that then becomes a lower lip scoop. I certainly cannot pretend to yawn while I play, so please will you explain in greater detail how you practice moving your larynx to the extent it is needed to produce pitch changes you obviously master now.

    Pretty sure I’m guilty of the lip scoop. 😢 The more I learn, the more I feel discouraged that I’ll never sound like a pro... and wishing I’d stuck at it after high school instead of taking it back up at 50! 🤣

    • @GetYourSaxTogether
      @GetYourSaxTogether  3 роки тому +4

      Oi! It’s never too late! If you stuck at it in high school you wouldn’t have the experience and life experience you’ve got now to improve faster. And who cares if you’re a total pro if you enjoy it? 😊

      It’s up to you, but probably closer to a half tone scoop, or even less.
