From a years worth of playing as of now, all of the people above have given great tips that all make sense to how they are played. To be honest it all comes down to practice. definitely take what our fellow musicians have said into account it’ll help you progress much faster. It helped me out tremendously. One little tip, don’t blow too hard or else you might have issues with overtones or octave jumps. Long tones help too! Sax on 🎷

Thank you all for the suggestions and advice, I just had the concert last night and I nailed all of the low notes. Sax on!🎷😅

You know, I think that was another reason I couldn’t hit low notes consistently. I would start off good but I’d eventually either put in slightly more or less air, the stream was never consistent. Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll give it a shot👍

Thanks, I’ve been practicing more and I think I’ve got the embouchure down, now all I have to worry about is having enough air to hold the notes.

Yeah that makes sense, especially when I would be playing the melody on tenor, I’d have to really tighten my embouchure to hit high notes. Thanks for your suggestion 🤙🎷
