Hi! : I'd also like to learn some of the tricks Zorn makes with his horn. Particularly his propulsive, quasi percussive technique that goes like this : "PrrrrrrrrrrRt Pchhhht Ppp pPPp Pchhht" (sorry fot the transcription, i don't know how to describe it, I hope someone undestands me!) Evan Parker and Briggan Kraus also do this. It can be found in many Zorn recordings. My teacher doesn't know how he does it, he says that maybe playing very fast many notes and in the way he throws the air, he tried but he didn't succeed. Can anybody help? Thanks Rafa --------------------------------- Correo Yahoo!: 6MB, más protección contra el spam ¡gratis!
"PrrrrrrrrrrRt Pchhhht Ppp pPPp Pchhht" (sorry fot the transcription, i don't know how to describe it, I hope someone undestands me!) Sounds like you have been reading Finegan's Wake ;) I think it maybe a modified growl; rather than "growling" he screams into the sax while playing notes. Then the latter part would be tonguing the aforementioned notes. That would be my guess from the onomatopoeia you provided. Could you provide a particular recording on which he does the most representative version of this and where it approximately falls in the song or his solo. Thanks. Zach
