In this video I show the difference between jazz sax and classical sax and why they have the different distinct musical tone qualities that they do.

Using the classical setup to play jazz kind of reminds me of putting higher gauge strings on a guitar or maybe even using flatwounds and playing saturated fusion-y legato stuff. As you go up in string gauge you get a stronger more focused fundamental but deaden liveliness/overtones and response and it becomes more difficult to execute certain techniques

It's interesting to analyze the difference between the music genres when there are intersections between instruments. For example the upright bass also has to be set up differently and the right hand technique is kind of the opposite. Even though it's the same instrument and when you listen, you recognize that it's the same instrument, nevertheless the genre imposes its own rules.

3:20 I wonder if your response problems would go away if you put the reed down more instead of having it poke out from the mouthpiece. Put the tip of the reed in the middle of the thickness of the top of the mouthpiece bite or under. This with a ligature not so tight will improve your response. Love you dude.

A person I know you already ordered the mouthpiece, but in the future if you’re looking for new equipment your best choice is to try them in person. I have a Vandoren V16 A8, but I really wished I had tried Meyers, ottolinks, Berge Larson’s, etc. But none the less a Meyer 6M is a great mouthpiece, hope you enjoy it

A night on Tunisia by good old Dizzy
i love u
1:46 "A Night in Tunisia" by Dizzy Gillespie or alternatively "And The Melody Still Lingers On" by Chaka Khan. Ironically enough while watching this video and hearing that I had just switched over from a tab where I had kzread.info/dash/bejne/in2fpserc8nWp9I.html video pulled up.
Hey so there’s mouthpiece specifically for jazz and mouthpieces specifically for classical? Is it still possible to play jazz with a classical mouthpiece though?

You can get a jazzy sound no matter what setup you have - even a classical mp + reed. You’re just better off with certain serious corresponding to what your goal sound is.

It’s from a night in tunisia.
What reeds do you use for both genres? I’ve been using d’addario reserve 3.0+, but I find that I’m only getting 3/4 useable reeds, even with a reed geek. For jazz, I’ve used d’addario select jazz 3.5 filed, mostly cause I just like them better than vandorens.

What a lot of people are for getting in classical music from about the 40/50s saxophone do not exist in classical music so no point in learning classic with a sax, just learn to play the sax. It's ok to learn classical but make up your mind to switch in the future

I'm from India and I had no clue about the mouthpiece difference and was constantly being shat on by my local jazz club musicians for a bad tone, I use a 4c, there arent many options in here, could you list a cheap/good mouthpiece because i cant go and see it at a store and choose for myself, Help please!

To a non sax player it just sounds like the classical one is a sexier clarinet
I read that most classical mouthpieces have large chambers in order to achieve a dark sound, whilst jazz mpcs have smaller chambers to speed up the air flow and achieve a brighter sound. This is the opposite of what you said here. Which is it?

It is two totally different disciplines. If you're not doing classical everyday, a player has no idea. If you're not improvising everyday you will have no clue.
