Took me 2 hours to make my first short growl. Don't give up in the first minutes, time is the key!

Every time I try to growl, my humming gets cut off as soon as my air flow is strong enough to make a sound. Help?

@@andys4971 try playing in the middle range. Probably from f to b. It takes more air, but make sure you don't clench. Also, hum a different note than the one that you're fingering. Id recommend between a major 3rd to a perfect fifth above or below the note you are playing. And make sure that you're relaxed in your embouchure and airflow. Strong yet light.

Hey Jeff! I've been watching a lot of your videos and wanted to let you know that your tips are really helpful and inspire me to try out some new stuff on the sax. Keep up the great work!

Great tip, Jeff. Thanks for your time, knowledge and instructions.

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! I had to play Snarl by John Mackey in my band and I suck at growling. You have much improved my playing experience. THANK YOU!!!!!!

Excellent class with a lot of technique and joy. Great tips.

I've only watched a few of your videos but they are wonderful. You are a good teacher and an incredible player. Much appreciate your tips and wisdom. Keep it up!

I REALLY enjoy your videos because you get RIGHT to the point and TEACH. Yes!

omg Thank you. After all those other videos of teaching me how to growl, this was the only one to properly teach me how to growl.

Thanks for the videos Jeff. You have helped my tone and technique. You deserve many more good surprises.

Nice vid again, Jeff.! This one is something easy enough for a beginner like me can understand. Even most of your videos are something sound difficult, but i tried to learn a lot from you!! thanks!!

Bro, wtf this actually works, best sax lesson I’ve had ever.

Really great tip to growl! Awesome video

Bro this video helped out so much! I know I am a few years late, but I am finally able to growl! Thanks!

Hi Jeff hope you're doing well thank you for all your tips is been helping me a lot making me play more I thank you happy holidays 🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷

Omg I’ve been trying for so long and this video finally helped me

Very simple and very clearly explained ! I liked the cow image !! Will try to keep this image in mind next time I try to growl ! I agree that it is not the most appropriate sound for the lower register. MexSax

Thanks, Jeff!

Thx Jeff! I hope your lesson could help me to increase my skill

I will have to try this "humming" method. Historically, and I do mean the last 40 years, I've done my "growling" differently.... I actually do a "gargling" which gives me a very raspy rough and ruggard sound, which works well with the old bluesy and rock and roll sax sound.

love your videos...you are the best

WHY DID I JUAT FIND OUT ABOUT YOU NOW?!?!?! I already can growl pretty well but your other vids are fantastic new sub here!

This video really helped me out! I've been trying to get this kind of sound for quite a while, since my altissimo sounds kind of strange without it.

Yes! Thanks Jeff!

omg got this instantly thanks !!!

No one growls better than Clarence Clemons!

Hi Jeff, another Hemke user, please post up your comparison of the Select Jazz to the Hemke after you have tried out a few of the D'Addarios if you would or mention it. I haven't tried the select Jazz yet, but I've been using Java greens with the jazz set up. Thanks..

I can't believe I missed this XD great timing though! Trying this for soloing :D

I actually use the reed case, its super useful for living in the high altitude and dry climate in CO.

Trust me, a good neck strap is amazing. I used to use a strap that would make my neck red after playing. It takes some getting used to at first, but after a while, it's a lot better.

I have a D'addario mouthpiece. I lIke it quite a bit and they seem popular with the folks in Montreal.

Thanks Jeff...was having hard time growling

Hemkes are beasts. I use them for my bari sax.

I've always wanted to growl because I know somebody else who can growl, but he does it differently than from this. I think. I think it's also a really good technique also if you're soloing in the 12 bar blues or whatever you want.

I've been playing sax for 5 years and this is kind of off topic but I've managed to have a good tone but I've been seeing things about sax embouchure and ive noticed they want your top teeth touching the mouthpiece and I realized I've always put my upper lip over my top teeth as well as putting my bottom lip over my bottom teeth of course. Is there a right way to do this and am I doing something wrong because I've managed to play like this and improve for the last 5 years and it's strange I'm seeing things like this now. I've never remember hearing from my teachers that I was doing something wrong in terms of embouchure

@maamotteesoot

Anthony Diecidue ..hi, just my two bits worth - hopefully I'm understanding your question - having your top lip slightly under/ curled for top teeth - reckon Jeff will tell you that different strokes for different folks. There's some greats who preferred to curl top lip under top teeth, very slightly, and if you try both, ie curled top lip under teeth, and then teeth resting on top of mouth piece, the sound will be different. Some people can swap depending on the sound they are looking to achieve. I tend to rest the teeth on the mouth piece top, I have tried the curled lip under (top), it's neat sound too. I was having some lip problem after playing/ practicing too long with new reed, so I got bunch of cotton wool and rolled up and put inside my mouth, along the gums, both bottom and top. Wow, turned out fun, and I understood why so many black Americans can play so well perhaps, the fleshier lips surely do help! Ha!

@Allencaillou

7 жыл бұрын

That sort of embouchure is just fine and dandy as far as I know. It's more common among double reed players and clarinet players. Stan Getz, Paul Desmond, and Johnny Hodges are some saxophone players that were known to play with a double lipped embouchure. Pretty good club to be in if you ask me.

@InCaffeinated

7 жыл бұрын

This is somewhat late, being a month later. The double embochoure is something that I struggled to fix when I got into high school years ago, it's technically acceptable, and I even use it every now and then on gigs to create a softer, subtone, effect on ballades. But unless you're a professional with experience with the "correct" embochoure, like the musiciand mentioned above, using a double style can hold a beginner/intermediate player back drastically in terms of tone and range growth. It's an extremely common 'mistake' amongst beginners that goes unnoticed a lot of the time until you work with a teacher with saxophone or clarinet experience. In closing, I reccomend working to correct your embochoure and after doing so, experiment with the double embochoure and see what works for you either as a permanent embochoure, or situational embochoure.

@dahalofreeek

6 жыл бұрын

If that works for you it works. What is important is that you put the pressure on the mouthpiece with your top and sides of mouth but the bottom has to be as loose on the reed as you can, just enough pressure to seal the air. As far as the outside of your mouth is concerned that is what matters. Learning to keep the back of your tongue up is another battle entirely.

i'm playing on selected jazz with my meyer 8m, they are great! they are adding some "zz" to sound :D jaZZ

what would be a really cool jazz lesson video would be triad pairing

i highly recommend the medium size 3 unfiled select jazz reeds. theyre nice

try 3 and a half reeds, it really helps improve tone

Yo...that cool bruh...thanks

Im a guitar player and I watch your stuff always as Im a huge Parker fan..did Parker ever use the growl? When I think of the growl I think the Stones Brown Sugar..thankxx!

Thanks a lot, Woody Allen.

Can I ask what pillinger mpc you use please? (the link is broken) Fantastic vids! currently binge watching them!

Luv that scream/growl! Yes, I'm not a saxophonist, but a frustrated keyboard player, who actually plays very authentic sax solos(I can hear you laugh!), yet that growl sound eludes me. Still using the Roland U-20's "FF Sax" (which is quite good), but would prefer using real multisamples, like these of yours. Would you consider sampling 4sec long notes, at intervals of say, every fourth note and selling them, so I can use them on my Roland Fantom X6 sampler? Of course you'll get mentioned when using them!

Hello Jeff Schneider! I was wondering if you could make a video about how to work and develope patterns in one scale... Im not into jazz.... I play electronic music and normally this music just work in one scale... I hope you understand what I mean. , thanks a lot for your straight videos about saxophone lessons!

OMG This helped me so much... but I am getting a warbling on the low notes any advice?...I have been trying to get a growl now for about a year.... thank you!!!

Ive been playing for over a year alto and now tenor, and I use mouthpiece patches because I have sensitive top teeth and they reduce vibrations. They do mellow the sound though.

Nice ligature

I accidentally growled once because I like to randomly hum and sing into my sax all the time (mostly to annoy friends but it also sounds cool) and I was like "I'm a genius" and then just continued to growl for the whole day😂

"Moooooo" That cow though Lol

what mouthpiece would you recommend for growling?

Hi Jeff, thank you. It helps a lot & I've started to practice the growling piece by piece easily. My question is, 'Growling' does it have (will have) negative impact on our vocal chord (Vocal/Voice)? Just a bit worried. Let me know Thanks Again
