Was talking to Keeon the other day.

Keeon Taylor
Hi Neal, what are some ways to practice tone with just the mouthpiece?

Neal Battaglia
why can’t you use the saxophone?

Keeon Taylor
On my commute to work when I’m driving

Neal Battaglia
not something I have done
have you heard of people doing that?

Keeon Taylor
yea, I can’t remember the guys name but saw it on youtube and a friend mentioned it to me
Some even play scales with just the mouthpiece

(At this point, I thought I might know the video he was talking about)

Neal Battaglia
have you tried?

Keeon Taylor
yea , so I’m looking for other things to do besides the long tones

Neal Battaglia
English guy on youtube?

Keeon Taylor
Not sure but I heard about the technique before and saw a few people doing it…he might be English

Neal Battaglia
do you have much time to practice with the sax?

Keeon Taylor
30 minutes each day

Neal Battaglia

Keeon Taylor
Yes, that’s the guy!
