Subj: Re: [kl] sax trouble

<<Let's hear it for the self-taught sax players! Having never taken a sax
lesson, I don't know too much. I have, however, had more paying gigs on
sax, and that will probably continue. The only signifigant problem I've had
on sax has been getting the lower register to sound. I can hit the low D
consistently, but no lower. Can any self-taught (or even professional!) sax
players give me a hand?
I play alto if it makes a difference.
Thanks.

One of these might be the problem: you could have a worn out reed, you might
not be using enough air support, or your embochure might be too tight.
