Saxophone has an ability that other instruments do not possess - one of the instruments closest to human voice. It can gradually enhance the expressive force of the music from doubling to weakening to reaching a very strong peak, and vice versa, from doubling to weakening to doubling. For a long time, people often mistakenly believe that "sound" is good, and some people or teachers who have not been scientifically trained "can not teach law", their own concept of timbre is wrong, only one-sided pursuit of volume and despise timbre. The pronunciation of saxophone is caused by the vibration of the whistle and the vibration of the air column in the pipe. So lip tension and breath pressure are very important. Some players play too tense lip, resulting in the voice too tight, too stuffy, can not shine out; some lip strength control is not enough, breath too strong, purely pursuing the loudness of the voice, resulting in breath too short, resulting in upper body tension, sound color is very explosive, but they still vigorously blow, feel that their volume is big is moving, do not know that beside. It's very loud on the edge, a little farther away, it's not clear and lacks penetration. To overcome the mistake of the concept of saxophone timbre, first of all, we should improve the ability of distinguishing timbre. We should know which timbre is good and should be pursued, which timbre is bad and undesirable. We should listen to the performance of excellent performers more, practice in the right way, and achieve more listening, more blowing and more imitation. Secondly, teachers should use the correct method, pure tone as a demonstration, to improve students'ability to identify tone. For those who have developed habits in playing, they should guide practice consciously and persistently in the right way until new correct concepts are formed and consolidated.
Mouth type is very important. It's difficult to correct after making a mistake. Do not use the mouth shape of the black tube to blow Saxophone mouth to relax, the flute head should not contain too much, about a third of the initial school do not drum, lower teeth do not bite the lip, mouth shape should be O, breath should be even, breathing when imagined as a natural sleeping appearance. In this way, the breath will be deeper, the tone will be better, and the stomach and chest should be filled when breathing. I wish you success as soon as possible.
