The Sax with NO KEYS!!!

Written By Dr. Selfridge Music on Sunday, Dec 27, 2015 | 02:28 PM

 
Mr. Selfridge plays an alto saxophone with no keys! What do you think it will sound like? With no keys or extra holes, this saxophone works much like a trumpet or trombone. By adjusting your embouchure an airstream, you can produce the different notes of the OVERTONE SERIES, which are the naturally occurring frequencies within a single note. This clip is from Mr. Selfridge's adventures at the Midwest Band & Orchestra Clinic 2015 in Chicago, Illinois.
