2. I find it difficult to play rapid, repeated staccato passages
evenly. My tongue tangles.
3. My fingers and tongue get out of phase when I have to play fast
tongued passages.
4. When I am trying to get a strong, tongued accent, I often get
squeaks or an explosion at the start of the note.
5. I find it hard to get a decent tone in the top register from C#
to F#. Why?
6. How do I get the notes above top F or F#?
7. When should I use the A#/Bb alternatives?
8. My notes all seem to start a bit late when I am playing in a band.
Why?
9. What is the best way to play with vibrato?
10. I have great difficulty tuning my tenor sax. I am sure that my
embouchure is correct.
