Great!!!!
Great review. May I please know your setup for this Yamaha soprano? What brand of mouthpiece and size?

Howdy! Thank you! I am using a Otto Link Tone Edge 7 in this video. The reeds were the Filed D'addario Jazz Selects 3S with an old clarinet ligature that fit and held great!
Maybe you can help me? For some reason I actually am more proficient at playing the soprano sax more so than the tenor. I have difficulty playing the tenor more than the soprano. Why is this?

Usually what it comes down to is Embouchure. Soprano and Alto have very similar mouth and throat shapes for full sounds, and also don't need AS MUCH air. When you switch to Tenor, it's a pretty drastic change for keeping everything relaxed, all things considered. Long tones on Tenor while paying attention to the tightness (you want this to be relaxed) around the mouthpiece as well as how fast your air is moving for a full tone can do wonders! - Andrew

@@alamomusicbando Hey thanks for the helpful tips! I will work on relaxing up a bit on my embochure. This usually happens after I play on my soprano and go to my tenor. I’m wanting to use the same tightness on my tenor. Thank you much!
