- Jay from @bettersax shared his thoughts on this debate but as much as I like Jay I thought of this. I used Two mouthpieces, the first is a Meyer 5M, pretty middle of the road mouthpiece. The second mouthpiece is a Sigurd Rascher concert mouthpiece. I use R Dark Ligature. I should have changed reeds but I didn't want too many changes to the setups. My horn is a Yamaha 52.

Love the sound of that second mouthpiece
There's a CONSIDERABLE difference in tone haha, the 2nd mouthpiece was much more dark and focused
Agreed
When he said: No difference... He referred to the embouchure... Te sound changes because of the mouthpiece
The second mouthpiece is so much darker and sweeter. Ideal for classical music. Huge difference.
Massive difference.
@@victormanuelgarciagracida6677 yes, that is how I understand what he is saying as well. Judging by the other comments, I think other people are understanding something different. The title of the video makes it confusing because it states two different embouchures, but the content is about the same embouchure across two different mouthpieces.
Is it just me or was there a HUGE difference
There was a change when I changed mouthpieces. The embouchure stayed the same.
Huge difference in sound between those mouthpieces, like night and day
It was the mouthpiece not the embouchure.
The difference is definitely the mouthpiece. Embochure IS the same!
Is there a no nonsense tutorial detailing the production of the jazz subtone? I sure would like to have this.
Hello ! I’m a classical saxophonist transitioning to jazz, and From what I saw from de video, I felt that the difference was with how much air (and maybe openness of the throat) you add in your cheeks when you play the jazz embouchure, something that is strictly forbidden in classical Sax :)
gadget502000 hey man if you actually wanna get good at jazz this is not the way. Hit me up @tosephjhomas on Instagram
I feel like an alien listening to humans battling over how American apples are *totally* different from New Zealand apples, I'm just looking at those apples, same shape, same color, same size, really wtf are they talking about. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
(expecting to get my first saxophone in 6 days, can't wait!!!)
Huge difference...
The sax world has no uniformity. What little continuous tradition there is is mostly based on people who more or less invented saxophone technique just a few generations ago. The only safe road is to find a teacher with a great reputation as a teacher, whose students have great reputations as players, and learn from that teacher. There is no tradition to rely upon, and no guarantee that a good player will be a good teacher. It's a jungle out there. For insights into classical embouchure read Teal, Ray Smith, Mark Watkins, and John Harle. Yeah Allard was da bomb and he is often misrepresented but just looking at all the great classical players you can see that they are not treating the corners the way he taught.
You look jolly and depressed at the same time
I feel sorry for whoever thinks any of this is true because it’s not. You used the same embouchure for 2 different mouthpieces and got 2 different sounds.
I can’t speak for classical saxophone, but I know both of them were not jazz sounds by any means. Your jazz sound is tacky and scoopy. You need to listen to more Kenny Garrett and Dick Oatts, and stop wearing the CZcams educator hat like you know what you’re talking about
Could you help me with jazz sound?
R.I.P. Kobe yeah, hit me up on insta. @tosephjhomas
Joe Thomas I also hit you up, my insta is brayanezcobedo
100% agree with you on the Kenny Garrett and Duck Oats part
I can speak for classical saxophone and is not even classical...
