Altissimo

The higher note or upper range of the saxophone develop based on the harmonic element of the sound described in the overtone series.-the extreme upper register of the saxophone or other woodwind instruments. On saxophone, it is sometimes referred to as the "Third Octave To made the note that was not register on the saxophone, the saxophonist trained to voice the higher note with the key in the range of the harmonic.

Beginners often have difficulty producing the low notes or "bell tones" and the high notes or "palm keys." Only the advanced saxophone player with the well-developed embouchure can produce the high tone as they hear the tone how it sound when he attempted to play Therefore, playing higher note to extending your song and the effect of the note should be warm as the register sound in the head register.

Further the practice strengthens and reinforces the lower note. On to the way to reach to the higher level of performance, most the player can clamp up to the highest note that can play. The knowledge of the harmonic series from instrument as well as relaxed embouchure combines with the quantity of air just enough to reach the high tone desired We mention the pitch that is the important matter to how to achieve the correct pitch when produced..

The extended range or "altissimo register" should not be explored until the player has a firm grasp of proper breathing, embouchure, and tone production Before exercise the high tone with finger register, suggested that overtone need to be done well and manner that confidently to produce the correct tone. But advanced players of the saxophone know very well that it is possible to produce High F#:

Finger the standard auxiliary front F key (first finger of left hand on the aux F and 2nd finger on the C key) -- add side Bb

High G: (No multiphonic)
Finger the auxiliary front F key (first finger of left hand) without holding down the C key, add side Bb and right hand F finger.

High G: (with multiphonic)
B and G in the left hand, F and D in the right

High G#: (overblowing will get a weak multiphonic)
Same as G (non-multi) above, only lift right hand F key

High A: (No multiphonic)
Same as G# (non-multi), add C trill side key

High A: (multiphonic)
A and G of left hand with E and D in the right

High Bb: (non-multi)
Finger middle D, lift left hand B finger, add D palm key

High B: (No multiphonic)
A and G in left hand, F and D in right, add D and Eb palm keys

High B: (Multiphonic)
Finger middle D and overblow the harmonics of the note

High C: Option 1
B and G in the left hand with F and D in the right

High C: Option 2
Finger standard high C (C + octave key) and add D and Eb palm keys
oduce another octave or more via the use of natural harmonics above written F# . The use of these harmonics is common today, in jazz and improvisation, studio and classical performance.
