More baritone sax anomalies! The mechanics of my (Yanagisawa 901) baritone are such that raising the middle finger of the right hand does not result in the opening of any holes as the third finger on the 'D' key still keeps the 'E' key closed.
Howdy from Texas Jamie, nice video. For the 2nd part of the 3rd overtone, couldn't you also use the same 2nd finger Left Hand that you used for the 1st B flat overtone?
Thanks Jamie, I was waiting for this since you mentioned it in the comments some Sundays ago about this was coming. I cannot wait to try this but my neighbours are still sleeping. 😂
Nearly the only overtone I needed up to now playing in a brassband was the altissimo G, which I couldn‘t match up to now on my Tenorsaxophon , and there seems to be no easy cheat for that 😔
It's just like using an octave key. You still have to be able to achieve the overtones without the additional venting or you haven't really achieved anything.
Once you can produce the overtone using these crutches, continue to produce the overtone back on the Low Bb fingering without the crutch addition. This is training for your brain to get a sense of where everything needs to be in your throat, tongue, embouchure to produce the note. When you stop playing the overtone, breathe thru your nose while trying to not move any of the throat, tongue, embouchure parts and try to immediately go back to the overtone (without using the crutch) by starting the overtone note with breath only (no tonguing, which might shift something critical in the setup). This helped me start producing all 4 overtones.
ruclips.net/video/9hCc3H8Jjtw/видео.htmlsi=fQ4M5fAqbVw0cBPG In this video I did the same thing "venting" the first couple overtones, briefly opening a key the get the right note to start. This can sound cool in solos to alternate between the overtone note and the regular fingering.
Thanking you big time, kind Sir! Crutchtastic. We should all certainly sign up for the Inner Circle soon! 💯❤Hugs. ~Anywayz, we don't need to be 'space oddities' with our neighbours anymore (or even alienate 'em) coz soon enuff they all gonna start pounding on our doors! ooh ya and sings Men at Work, Who Can It Be Now ? #ThanksSoFundamentallyMuchJamie

Oof!
Thanks, Jamie!!! I tend to hit overtones by accident 😳 Cheers!
Sure 👍🏻

Dunno. I’m not by my sax right now. If it works it works I guess!
That really cool training! Very helpful!
Great!
I will definitely try these tricks to up the scale of Bb, B, C and C# for overtones and will let u know how it worked!!! Thanks Jamie
Wayne Pharo
Great thanks
Great video…informative and easy to understand….
Glad it was helpful!

No worries!
thanks for sharing! Ive found these help students progress, especially when they hit a wall
Great!
Hi can you help
Have you got any suggestions on why I can't get smooth either iget the lower or higher
Thanks
Sorry, don’t understand the question.

You wouldn’t play an altissimo G with overtones anyway. Check my altissimo videos.

These cheats are simply training wheels. Once you feel the overtone this way it will help you get it without the extra help

Some good answers here.
Cool hacks Mr Anderson. Thanks.
🙏🏻
I’ve seen him, since then I cheating too ,if I have a problem not getting mainly the fourth overtone out.
Ok thanks.
@@GetYourSaxTogether Does it cause any problem for the future ? The bigger tip opening helps to get easier overtones out.
@@haroldlloyd8621 complex question.
Quick question, why do we practice overtones again? This looks like a bunch of "fun" work
Tone, voicing. 👍🏻
