Play the fingering of the saxophone bass and blow a higher note than the original

Mondo Entertainment Updated on 2024-01-28

1. First of all, play the lowest note of the saxophone, this is very simple, right?Then keep this fingering still and try to blow out a BB that is an octave higher by just the change in the mouth shape of the mouth with airflow. This is called an overtone.

2. After being able to blow a BB with a higher octave, let's take a closer look at how to blow a bass fingering higher than the original sound?What does it feel like to have your mouth and mouth?Then continue to try to use this fingering, continue to find the feeling, blow higher notes, and aim for a fifth higher f.

3. In this way, every time you master a higher overtone, summarize the feeling of the mouth shape, and then try to blow a higher overtone. Higher overtones can be hard to hear, but it doesn't matter, it's important to master this feeling of blowing out high overtones. As long as this step is done, the super blow will basically be done.

4. Then find some super blowing fingering methods on the Internet (there are many kinds, just pick the one that suits you best), and try to blow the super treble with the feeling of Xi overtones just now. Superblowing pitch is important, you can blow a lower octave of the normal range first, use that as a benchmark, and then look for a superblown pitch of a higher octave.

5. I recommend skipping the over-blowing g and g first, although these two sounds are not high, but they are difficult to pronounce. (Actually, I still have a feeling of unease about these two sounds.......)It's not too late to go back and practice these two after practicing the other super blowing sounds.

6. There are a lot of overtones in the saxophone, and the range of overblowing is also very wide, and the fingering of overblowing is also very rich, and a superblowing may have a variety of fingerings. First of all, you have to establish the concept of pitch in your mind, what tone you want to blow, this tone must form a standard in your mind, or you can sing this pitch directly, so that it will help you to distinguish whether your overblowing is correct or not.

If you can't establish this standard in your head, find the corresponding note on the piano and listen to it. Then adjust the strength of the throat and mouth little by little with accurate super-blowing fingering, until the sound is blown, remember that the mouth must be relaxed, don't tighten it too tightly, and you won't be able to make a sound if you tighten it. When you blow out this sound, don't stop, keep blowing, remembering the strength and feeling of the breath, throat, mouth. Then practice the Xi repeatedly, and use the overblown sound as a scale Xi. Super blowing is just such a little skill, and the rest is completely up to yourself to find the feeling!
