Improving Your Saxophone Playing by Tuning Properly
When most saxophonists tune up they use a middle G or F-Sharp. The main problem with this is that the middle G or F-Sharp is traditionally very sharp notes... usually 30 cents plus if the embouchure is not adjusted.
How to fix this problem:
- Have the saxophonist play the G or F-Sharp in the lower register.
- Use a first finger B natural, hold it for a while and then play the middle G or F-Sharp.
Important Note: The saxophone is generally an out of tune instrument. It's important to hear it in tune to play it in tune.
