ОтветитьHello. Thanks for the exercices and your smill 😊
ОтветитьAbout, the title, I am starting fom scratch, I am 64+
D1:I bought my Dolnet 50's no sound ;) (mouthpiece, neck, saxo)
D2: a few sounds with mouthpiece or neck, nothing with saxo
D3: some notes with mouthpiece and neck, nothing with saxo
D4: this lesson, different notes with mouthpiece, neck and saxo YEPP! thanks
I mean it is better to start with lesson 1 (from my point of view), great lessons, thanks
Thank you. This is valuable!!
ОтветитьHappy New Year Jaime. Great video. I am working on getting my embouchure relaxed, improve my sound, and build endurance. I have struggles with it. Your videos have helped me with this challenge. I greatly appreciate all your videos and love for Saxophone and playing good music. Thanks my Friend : )
ОтветитьMental Jamie! I love it xx
Ответитьa saxophone lesson
ОтветитьNot even 5 minutes in, and I've learned so much. Thank you for getting right to the point and straight into a solid lesson.
ОтветитьEarly on, I made the mistake of letting the weight of the saxophone rest on my lower lip. In order to let the reed vibrate, it's extremely important to make sure you're supporting the sax with your upper teeth to let your jaw free 😉
ОтветитьLeaking, badly maintained sax can induce these forcing habits also
Ask me how I know….sax must be operating properly to blow comfortably
This is one amazing video, super helpful!! I’ve added this to my practicing and wow. I already feel like I’m improving!! Thanks for sharing!!
ОтветитьHello algorithm
ОтветитьI just started playing 2 weeks ago and I am happy I found this!! :) I can learn it right from the start! I have been struggling with getting a weird sound and this was it, I was biting too hard and not really using my throat properly. Thank you!!
ОтветитьI'm finding it hard getting a good sound out, I'm a complete beginner lol
ОтветитьThis video hit me like a truck! It's gonna change the way I play woodwinds!
ОтветитьHello do you still teach classes now
ОтветитьAmazing thanks for this❤
ОтветитьHaving lost bottom teeth, what difference does this have on the bite?
ОтветитьI have a question, I was wondering if I could play soprano sax with no teeth or dentures? Currently I do play bagpipes with no issues because I have developed strong lip and cheek strength.
ОтветитьBeen playing professionally (mostly classical) for 15 yrs and this has been one of the best, most intuitive videos. Thank you
Ответитьgot my saxophone 2 days ago, i'm 17, ima try my best 💪
ОтветитьSincerely thank you🥹 I’ve just received my first sax, been struggling for making a not disturbing sound for a week. Finally got it after watching this video🥹🙏🏻
ОтветитьXylophone with a blanket 😊
ОтветитьI teach saxophone.
Sometimes, most of the time, I am not telling my students exactly what they have to do. The instruction itself could be too much for them.
I nudge them in the right direction.
I don't know how to explain it.
Great guy he’s a good teacher
ОтветитьDo you know biology?
ОтветитьEddie lockjaw was a biter. But that was in the old days. I found I could create a 5th in over tones slowly just by anticipating it inside my mouth vs when I just squeeze and push which works too but it’s not consistent
ОтветитьI have issues with playing the lower b flat
ОтветитьI learned one thing-I need to take the blanket off my xylophone.
ОтветитьI just picked up the alto sax for the first time today. I'm having trouble with middle G wanting to modulate and now I have something to try to maybe keep it where it needs to be.
ОтветитьPracticing with just mouthpiece is great exercise I learned that in 4th grade with clarinet
ОтветитьThat's great advice, tune sharp and open your jaw play flat.
ОтветитьOk but if i play too opened , no way i can be in tune, îm super flat and quirky, what am i doing wrong ? And how can you play p or pp without pressure on the reed ?
Ответитьthis could be the key. Thank you.
ОтветитьPretty sure when I was taught sax (in the 1990's) my teacher was a clarinet teacher. I was taught to curl my bottom lip over my teeth and squeeze the reed. My tone was muffled and "thin" for years as I knew no better. SO glad we now live in an age where videos like this exist to not only set good practice, but explain WHY. Thanks for the video. (M, 55, wish I had this video 40 years ago)
Ответить👍🎷👏
ОтветитьI enjoy your videos, and I don't even have a sax.
ОтветитьI was always taught not to bite
ОтветитьMy bottom lip won't allow me to bite it naturally covers my teeth 🤷♂️ but I've had this pounded in my head since I was in middle school Jazz Band.
ОтветитьThanks for giving genuine advice and help, and not just a vague metaphor or two clearly forced examples. I now actually know what it means to open up the throat, and I can't wait to start practicing with your examples!
ОтветитьSo true! I’ve learned to play from low Bb and voice up 4 octaves without biting or very very little lip pressure. Altissimo is soooo easy now.
ОтветитьI love your enthusiasm, and this video is, again, so helpful to me. I am struggling a bit with a lack of structure in my weekly lessons.
ОтветитьThese intonation and voicing lessons have been the key for me. I play several other instruments and sing, so I tried the clarinet for several years... under the assumption that this was what you 'should' do first if you really wanted to play sax... how hard can it be? Wrong!! (I now realise). The bad embochoure (speeellling?), zero voicing and intonation meant I couldn't play either instrument... until now!! I'm starting to bend the mouthpeice on its own, also with the neck attached and this also helps me to now do a slow vibrato at the end of a scale... woohoo!! I'm slowly getting more overtones happening from B flat, B, etc - highly recommended that overtone video to anyone meandering through sax like me.
I recommend two things - watch as many of Jamie's videos as you can (and subscribe) and either join his inner circle or buy him plenty of coffee. I've bought Jamie some coffee and will continue to celebrate each step forward with a few 'virtual' coffees with Jamie - because he absolutely deserves it.
And by the way - as well as being immensely useful, the videos have a human feel to them. Sometimes I'm even having a giggle while I'm battling with proper breathing - it doesn't get any better than that!
Amazing👌❤
