Mouthpiece exercises for saxophone and clarinet are one of the best methods to continually improve the sound. Furthermore, one can train the embouchure, the breathing and the articulation optimally. Daily exercises -- 5 minutes are enough -- are the key to a higher level of sound and intonation on the instrument. Through mouthpiece exercises you train exactly those muscles that are crucial to the playing of a saxophone or a clarinet: for the sound, for the intonation, for special effects as vibrato or bending, for high tones (high notes, top tones, altissimo, flageolettes). For beginners and for advanced players. For classic music, blues, soul, funk rock or folk.
How can we understand this? Sound production, sound, sonority, and above all personal expressiveness, are controlled individually out of the throat and the oral cavity. Therefore the lips, the tongue, the palatine, the larynx, the vocal cords and breathing play a vital role (voicing). The interaction of all these aspects is complex and it is quite unexplainable how you can produce certain tones and whole melodies like this. You do not deliberately notice the processes but you can feel them. It is crucial, therefore, that you can hear the results and remember the corresponding "settings"!
These findings prompted Joe Allard, the grand master of the woodwinds, to develop a new method of training and suitable exercises, among which are the mouthpiece exercises. With these exercises Joe Allard documented astonishing results while having comparatively little expenditure of time. Among his students were saxophonists as David Liebman, Michael Brecker, Stan Getz, Bob Berg and Glenn Miller whole sax section.
