Dr. Wally! This is essential material presented with clarity, expertise, and joy. Thanks for putting it into the world!
Omg some serious knowledge bombs there!
I find the physics of saxophone/wind instruments fascinating. Overtones/longtones are sooooo necessary to playing the saxophone beautifully.
Thanks for another great video and your work on the Saxophone Fundamentals book.
Woho～I catch this on live. So exciting! Thank you so much～
Fantastic, a comphrehensive demonstration of overtone pracrice.
First time I've seen such attention to detail, such as not shaving so we can more clearly see the effect of voicing on the lower jaw. Genius! 🙂
Thankyou Dr. Wally! What a treat! I listened to "Willow Garden" last week sometime, then wrote out all the notes, and here it is, in the latest Fun-damentals Book...Pretty tune! Lots to get through in this, so will go practice!!
working on that.
I'm 15th! Also, thank you so much for your tutorials, your a great player and even better teacher! Even more than that, Ollie's singing is a huge w. You should start a band, Doc Wally and Nurse Ollie lol
never mind, I'm 6th, I trusted youtube for a few seconds :|
6th place is 1st in my heart. Thanks Husky!
Yay! We need more Ollie!!!! 🤣
Wonderful 😭😭😭😭😭😭🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶
you should do a review on the better sax saxophone
Whoa! Olllie can really sing! He sounds a lot like a Mark VI 😂
Clearly he sounds like a Yamaha. I'M playing a mark vi...obviously

Hi, Dr.Wally. I am practicing the first version of fundamental book. should I practice the this new book or keep on practicing the 1st book? and If I transfer to 2nd book, any guild for the practice?
I'm struggling to get the first octave to come out. I can play the 5th above the first octave and I can play the second octave with no problem. I can't get the first octave to pop. Is this typical when starting to work on overtones?
I’m curious whether you like to use a specific mouthpiece for playing overtones. Was this a classical setup you were playing for the video? I seem to notice certain MP/reed combinations facilitate having them pop out more easily.
I do all my fundamentals on my classical setup - sound and technical studies. It's not easier to produce the overtones, but I like to approach my 1st hour of practice form a "concert/classical" base. Good question!
@@drwallysax A strange thing that I have noticed on my end is that the first, second and third fundamentals are so much easier on my classical mouthpiece and reeds but altissimo is harder; but on my jazz mouthpiece reeds, the converse is true. Not sure why this is yet.
Is there a difference in voicing or effort in producing overtones on the different saxophones--soprano, alto, tenor, bari?
Yes! They all feel very different, I find them quite difficult on soprano and super easy on Bari. Lower partials feel wonky on tenor to me (but that's just how much time I spend with the horn).
Also, why do so many exercises start with the first overtone note played normally? For example: first middle C played normally then middle C played by fingering low C. I've seen it in almost every overtone exercise I've come across. Moreover, should we match the tuning of the overtone to the normally fingered note, or the other way around? I thing the overtone is just- in tune with what the "0th" fundamental, but I'm not sure...
Dr. Wally, have you been uploading for the past month and some change? I've not received notifications for any of them except this one.
I've released a few in the past month!
@@drwallysax Oh good, then I blame youtube for not showing me enough.
I don't see links to earlier voicing video lessons
BANG! BANG MEN!
S90? What happened to the tm2? Also did you switch between the ex and mark vi for the demonstration vs video part haha
TM2 is fine. I like the S90 better. I do classical/fundamental work on my Yamaha :)
I have no idea what going on. Are you playing the linear scales without the octave key? I can’t see how you’re fingering. Thx
same fingerings without the octave key -- you just blow a different way, I focus my breaths as if I was blowing a candle
I am a little confused by one thing I saw in the video. You said that overtones are produced with tongue position and voicing only i.e. your fingers stay in the same spot. In the last exercise for the C overtones I see you move your fingers to produce the high E. I must be misunderstanding something.
I have a lot of problems with overtones 😩
What are you listening to in your headphones 🎧
A.M. radio broadcasts from Indonesia.
And a metronome.
@Saxophone Academy lol and I bet you play to the beat of their conversation 🤣
@@drwallysax Ha, funny, thought it was a backing track!
First?
Indeed you are, David. Indeed you are.
get some sun, take a day off.
