Growling on Saxophone
Hi,
I've been trying to create a growling effect on my alto sax. I know that there are several ways to growl, but I think the most common is "singing" or "humming" a note while playing another.
I've tried this many times, however I can't make any progress. I just can't hum and play at the same time. Is there I'm doing wrong? I start humming and while the mouthpiece is in my mouth I blow and suddenly I stop singing. Is there a way to prevent this or is there an exercise? I really want to elarn how to create that dirty, saxophone sound.
No matter what I've tried I can't seem to get it. I know it should take a lot of practice, but I can't do it AT ALL.
Thanks!
