better at saxophone?
I play the alto and im currently in symponic band (2nd highes band)
but i realy want to be in Jazz band this coming year
my teacher selects the best players so i need to get better over the summer
an advice
i will NOT be getting a rivate tutor becuase my mom will make me pay for it myself and i don't want to
i have been playing since 5th grade (going into 8th now)
i know the fingering and everything like that
but somethimes i get that airy sound
how do i stop that? what strength red is good for a 13 year old? I use a 2 inch now
don't say practice makes perfect of stuff like that
i need tips on making a better saxophone player
hey, i play alto sax too. I'm in 9th grade and was playing since 6th and have been 1st chair for two years. Anyway, Ive noticed that if u want a really good and rich sound, here are some tips:
- get a good quality reed, i use Rico royal, but if u r a really serious player, u should use vandoren (its expen$Ive tho, nut it is made with better cane)
- the quality of ur instrument, u know like Yamaha or selmer
if u r not in for spending more money, u should try these techniques:
- if u want a vibrant sound, use cold, fast air. But if u want a deep, rich tone, play with warmer air. The type of tone u need depends on the song.
- I have also noticed that if u just pick up u horn and play, it will sound kind of airy, but if u play 4 a while, it will get better.
- Lastly, i don't know if this works 4 everyone, but on my sax, the tighter i make the reed, the less airy my sound will
Keep playing and hope i helped
