 Re: Intonation difficulty in the simplest case

Tone color is indeed probably what needs to change. Saxophone players using bright-sounding jazz/rock style mouthpieces in a concert band are often called out for their "atrocious intonation," but the penetrating raucous quality of the sound or timbre may produce the sensation that they cannot match the pitch of the other instruments. Switching to a larger bore and chamber classical style mouthpiece that produces a rounder, less aggressive tone quality can do the trick of getting them not only to "blend" but also to "tune better," as perceived by the human ear.
