according to your pictures: you also need to play the tenor for a great sound. (except for Candy Dulfer of course. She can make a hosepipe sound sweet.)

[@maddisoncouture1177]

@@Sarscian so with alto it’s pretty much the same concept you just have to be more careful as it isn’t as prominent or noticeable if your mouthpiece and neck are at a different desired angle. Sometimes it helps to have your neck parallel to the ground with also makes your mouth piece parallel to the ground and you just adjust your lips/head to get your desired angles. AND always make sure you adjust your neck strap so it’s easier to do so

[@capre7]

On Point, Jamie! It's uncanny how your recent videos have hit exactly the techniques I'm working on. I, for one, really appreciate it when you give the science behind these tips. I like to know "why!" This one makes perfect sense when you think about the difference the angle makes with the throat. It's like I was taught when having to swallow vitamins. If you crane your head up, it constricts the throat opening, but if you tilt your head down, the throat is opened up and it's much easier to swallow. Funny how we tend to do the opposite, but this change makes a big difference. Same concept here. It's science! Thanks, Professor 🤓😉

[@jesseserranoll39]

Many thanks for this "Tip". I have been playing for 40 + years and have been out of business for the last year due to Bells Palsy.. definitely disheartening. I have been playing on an AE 30 Wind Synth but I just don't compete on stage with Rock/ Blues dynamics. It has been good to keep me in the game with smaller/ solo gigs, but I have missed the real sax!. Thankfully I have been able to slowly start gigging again on my Soprano and for limited numbers of songs on my Alto. Praying I can support Bari and Tenor again soon and this video may help. By INCREASING that angle with a steeper nod, I am easing the load on my lower lip on my Alto! It reduces the BLOWOUT due to the weakness on the right side of my lower lip from the Bells Palsy. AMAZING Thank you so much! I think I will also buy an angled neck for my straight Soprano as I have struggled with the "Muffled" feeling on Soprano for some time and never considered the rather steep angle down I normally play it at. This is my first viewing of your channel; it will not be the last. Hopefully this will speed my return to longer sessions and gigs from this Palsy. Thank you again and great success to you!

Thank you for this lesson! My teacher used to emphasize NOT to nod my head down, because it restricts the air flowing across the larynx and upper pallet. Some of those photos you used were probably taken while the musician was looking down at sheet music. David Sanborn has managed to get a lot of air flow despite his "crane" angle. However, I think he developed that angle so he could get the sax neck out of his view of the sheet music.

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

I believe David sanborn played like that due to his polio? Have you tried both?

[@MarkPeotter]

@@GetYourSaxTogether I often play with my head down when I am on stage with a loud band. I do it to hear myself better. But it limits my air flow and do not like it. Otherwise, I play straighter.

[@carlosvinueza8733]

Beautiful and very useful video. Thanks. In my case I love David Sanborn and Rangell’s music. I would like to know, how do they do to sound like they do it if they put the head with the head up. Best wishes from Ecuador and thanks again for this video

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

That’s the beauty and mystery of saxophone. You can do it many ways!

[@dynoroad]

In my case, I think angling the mouthpiece like that of Sanborn and Rangell greatly helps with overblowing. Craning the neck does not necessarily mean you play with a lot of pressure on the reed, but it probably is the case with beginners, so the "head nod" is good advice for most players. If you want to emulate the Sanborn style, I would suggest finding a position that makes overblowing easy (since that's a huge part of the style) while still maintaining comfort and an overall good sound.

[@alvincornistamusic8754]

I mostly agree with you but there are some who "crane" with success too. Dave Sanborn and Ralph Bowen come to mind. Perhaps the tongue angle trumps horn angle. I myself think neutral is best as extremes could introduce consequences to technique.

Not mentioning names but some teachers are teaching the ‘ extended back neck ‘ method as the way to get a sound . Try doing this while singing and the sound becomes constricted ! Then sing with the head a little down just a little and the sound opens up . It’s the same with the sax and to me , one gets a much fuller sound with the ‘ nodding ‘ position and more control too .

An interesting thing I’ve noticed: most sax players crane their neck when they’re playing into high altissimo, notably brecker. he kept a nod when playing in middle register, but when he went higher, he gradually craned his neck.

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Yeh, it’s interesting isn’t it?

[@raygelato3254]

I used to have the strap too high for years and it pushed my neck back . I switched to the nodding position a few years back and it made the world of difference .

This was very true for me recently. I misplaced my tenor neck strap for a day and tried using my alto strap instead. It wouldn't adjust long enough and forced me to play in that "crane" position. It was very uncomfortable and closed off my sound. Don't ever use a too short neck strap! 😕

[@HahnJames]

For the time being, I exclusively play the soprano sax. My straight sop has no neck or you could say that it's fused with the body in one integral piece, a straight shot all the way from the tip of the mouthpiece to the bottom of the bell. It's a common design. I'm positive that you've seen these before. I typically hold it at a 45 degree angle with the floor. I've found that I get that kind of muffled sound when I slack off and allow the mouthpiece to drift out of my mouth from where it should be. Lately, 've been good at keeping enough mouthpiece in my mouth, though.

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Ok cool. Thanks for sharing.

[@Matthewprice_1993]

Hey Jamie, thanks for such an informative video! I was wondering if you tend to keep the back and middle of your tongue humped for the whole range of the horn, or just for the low and high notes? I've heard a 'ayyyy' (flat tongue) position is advisable for the mid range notes. Thanks again! 🤟🏻

[@Matthewprice_1993]

@@GetYourSaxTogether thanks Jamie. You mentioned in your video on low notes that a 'you' tongue position works well for those notes and I just thought there might be other syllables for high or middle notes. Appreciate the note!

[@SaxophoneDanLive]

Ya this is a great video! Really not enough talked about. I'm curious if this can be affected by different neck (sax neck) angles? I've noticed the BSS neck create a bit more crane if that makes sense. I also wonder if players might find their setup more resistant when they move to the 'NOD' configuration?

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

I think head down feels less resistant if anything. I guess neck angle must matter, yes.

[@EgilFurre]

Well, that’s one theory. The picture of Michael Brecker is old, probably when he was between 20 and 30 years. Look at pictures of him the last 10 years of his life: He has changed the angle of the mouthpiece in his mouth from “NOD” to “CRANE”. The same will you find if you look at pictures of Branford Marsalis: “NOD” when he was younger, but “CRANE” when he got older. Marsalis even have a video/workshop where he explains why it is so important to play “CRANE” not “NOD”.

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Yup. I’ve heard him say the same actually. Can’t beat a bit of saxophone controversy! Just do what works best for you I guess. Even if this video just makes people think about it to do the opposite that’s cool with me.

How does this work when you are playing a straight soprano sax?

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Good question - I guess you just have to use the same theory. Keep your nose down a bit! Dave Liebman often looks like that.

[@edwarddesenne6153]

Sidney Bechet preferred to hold the soprano horizontally at 90 degrees so that the whole column of air went up from the diaphragm and then just turned right, as opposed to up and down again, like some classical clarinet players. Sidney had complete control but also used a mouthoiece with a long lay and aperture beneath the reed, from pianissimo to double forte, rivalling any trumpet player. Totally contrary to Branford Marsalis, able to bend with tonal effects, growls and glissandos !

[@JanGustafsson-m1o]

Eddie Lockjaw Davis is one of my absolute favorite players, great sound. Maybe his sound had been even greater if he had seen this?

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Being British means my sarcasm radar is finely tuned! 🤣

[@johndalto_at]

When you talk about nodding the head down to keep the neck muscles loose, it is very important to mention that the head nods NOT the head and neck. You CANNOT move the head forward. You can actually achieve a marvelous tone while looking up IF your throat is open (larynx). It is the opening of the airway and the ability to keep the weight of the head light on top of the neck that produces the brilliance in tone that we're after. If you look at a musician like Grace Kelley, she can literally jump up and down while playing with her sound because she has that light coordination of the head neck and back. Just my two cents as I work this all out for myself!! :)

[@johndalto_at]

I'd also like to point out that the neck muscles you describe along the front of the throat are at their greatest ease when you look up. It is the large trapezius at the back of the neck that will engage when you stiffen up. This will have the affect of tensing up the jaw as you look up and THAT will really kill your sound. So I love the idea of the video, but the anatomical reasoning behind the nod producing good sound is not quite there. BUT as a sax sound tip for a beginner, it can help to play with the idea and see what happens to the sound!

[@GetYourSaxTogether]

Thanks John. There’s actually a few misconceptions there though. Your larynx, or more precisely your vocal folds inside your larynx, are actually often almost closed in your airway, especially for note bending, palm keys and altissimo. Weird that, but true. And I’m not sure you make your head lighter on your neck? It’s always the same weight? Maybe you mean something else.

[@johndalto_at]

@@GetYourSaxTogether yeah i'm talking about the musculature surrounding the voice being open and engaged. It's a darn tricky thing for me to put into writing so sorry for the confusion! When I talk about the weight of the head feeling lighter on the neck, this is a sensation that will occur as the neck softens up and comes to it's greatest volume. If the muscles at the base of the skull have extra tension, this will pull the head down onto the atlas (top vertebra), increase the jaw tension, and stiffen up the rib cage. So while your head has the same weight, it can exert different degrees of pressure onto the spine based on how all of the neck muscles are coordinating. As you can tell, I think this is maybe THE most helpful thing for someone to understand to improve their tone :)

[@johndalto_at]

and apologies for posting a link. it was simply an attempt to communicate the balancing dynamic of the head!
