- Randal Clark teaches a lesson on splitting altissimo notes to get that overblown, cracked, dirty, feedback, raspy, screaming, multiphonic growl sound effect out of your sax high tones.

The greatest are yet quite unsung/unheard.
The world is really unfair; isn't it?
Thanks for knowing Randal Clark who deserves millions - wrongfully bequeathed to others [smile]
Thanks for the video, Randal, Cannonball and, of course, You Tube.
I'm a beginner and play that way a lot. My family is about to smash my horn
if I keep making that infernal noise.
So thanks for sharing what not to play.
2drsdan lol. I've been playing over 10 yrs and can't do that.
Same with me, for the love of me I cannot understand why people want that sound lol
@@mjeffbr Listen to the song *Let's fall in love again* by Warren hill and you will understand. Used as a machine gun splitones are noisy and meaningless but with a good use it adds to songs so much more personnality.
Thank you so much for this video! I have been wanting to know how to do split tones for a very long time!
Rendal Clark you are Fantastic
Thanks to this video I know what this technique is called.. I have been looking for this for almost a year
Bought a new sexy-phone after having to pawn my original for rent 18 years ago. Big deal for me. Thanks for the video. I'm so ready to start improving again.
At 3.22 Randal says that the fingerings were to be uploaded onto the cannonball homepage ... Anyone found them yet ?
Here they are for alto: www.cannonballmusic.com/media/cb_altosax_altissimo.pdf.

AWESOOME !!!!
THANKS GREAT MASTER FOR YOUR DATA I LOVE THAT SOUND !!!!!
I’ve always called this the Sanborn Scream. I stole it from hearing David do it on albums.
Appropriate analogy. Personally, the first person that pops into my mind is Cannonball -- but, I get Sanborn, as well.
Any advice on the mid range that David sanborn does?
That is one beautiful looking horn
I found what I think is the fingering chart on Cannonball Music. It's an altissimo chart for alto with some splitting fingerings. Here it is : www.cannonballmusic.com/media/cb_altosax_altissimo.pdf
thanks man
Excelente!!! Es pensando en comprarme uno ya, gracias!
Thank you!!!! Keep making videos like this!
Thank you so much! This fingerings really make a difference!
Excellent thanks. Are the fingerings still available on the Cannonball website? I can't find them so far.
what mouthpiece and reeds is he using?
Ernie northway mouthpiece but I don’t know the reeds
Maestro Clark, you are a bad MoFo; your sound on your great singles reminds me of Mindi Abair's, another tremendous player. This was helpful, I've had a hard time getting the feedback into my altissimo!
what mouthpiece and reed combination are you using?
Doesn’t matter
Ernie northway mouthpiece
I like the part at 2:50 I like the Middle finger one , next video teach us the High Altissimo like Very High I search for it but never find a useful video. So I think you guys would go into depth on teaching that. 🎷🎷
Also, does reed strength and type matter? I am using Legere 2.75 synthetic. btw. I started on a 2.00 cane 4 months ago. I would appreciate any info on this. Thanks
Hey that's a PRETTY GOOD strength size, it's highly to play on a 2 1/2+
I use the same set up with a Jody jazz D7 but signature series. 2.75
Depends on the mouthpiece your playing it on and how your chops work with this setup =) When it comes to learning stuff in the altissimo range you don't want your reed to feel too soft, so it'll give you some resistance against the urge to pinch when playing up there.
thanks man, helps a lot
What mouthpiece size or number, model, brand, reed size are you using?
hello Sir , I have question for you I know that you practice a lot have you ever had upper back sharp pain going to right hand, and I can not play I recently practice more than 5 hours a day and I have terrible right hand pain I play sitting in one position pls lmk pls share your experience thank you
Yes I have.. Playing for a long time with your neck hunched over can cause issues with your upper spine. I have had this happen and cause numbness in my arms. Try a different neck strap designed to take the pressure off of your neck, or practice with the sax supported on a stand instead of your neck. Always try to play with your spine as upright and straight as possible.
@@randalclarkmusic4333 thank you sir!
What mouthpiece are you using? Please
Ernie northway mouthpiece
Hello, is that the (AVR-L)?
At first I thought that may have been the (A5-L).
Randel when you get it sounds like 2 notes?? and you dont humm??
where can i get these fingerings
This is a great video. I can the what sounds like the undertone growl, but it's more like a buzz.
He doesn't mention humming at the same time. Can anybody give me some advice on that please?
I think what he does is not growling, but multiphonics... He says growl, because it sounds like a growl :)
1st off it's not a hum. Listen to what he says and follow his lead you'll do it in no time but you have to make sure to push a lot of air thru your horn.
Split tones don't necessarily come from growling, use very fast air and open your throat and thr notes will split easier. With an open throat, you can split from middle G# to middle D.
I can’t do it for some reason :(
yes...what is setup saxofone randal?
Ernie northway mouthpiece and rovner ligature
Good tutorial but maybe there's something wrong with me because I seem to be the only one that really doesn't like the split tone sound at all. ☹️
No.
😍
this is so hard lol
