Hi Quetscher,
Thanks for your comments and analysis of the jaw vibrato. What you said about moving the jaw affecting the diaphragm makes sense. Another reason I am curious about this type of vibrato is I saw Mario Duenas playing the saxophone on YouTube and was wondering if jaw vibrato was the type he used on his wonderful melodica version of My Funny Valentine. Can I ask what type of vibrato you use, especially on your moving rendition of Summertime posted on the site? Also in your earlier post above about the three types of vibrato I see a vibrato produced by the diaphragm and one by the throat but somehow I’m not catching the third type. Maybe it is using the spit vavle?
