So let's count the ridiculously hard extended techniques this thing has:
Altissimo
Slap tonguing (and rapid-fire slap tonguing at that)
Multiphonics
Circular breathing
The only thing it's missing is double-tonguing.

Amazing the ideas you can convey through a saxophone.

Can you explain how to slap tongue? I'm wanting to play fuzzy bird sonata. This is impeccable! One of the best players I've heard.

@emilybro16 Hey Emily, thanks for your comment! Fuzzy Bird is how I learned to slap! Essentially, you are grabbing the reed with your tongue, pulling it away from the mouthpiece using a combination of suction and grip/friction with the tip, and then letting it slap back. A normal "attack" is actually a release as well, but with a very minimal engagement of the tongue on the reed. For the slap, engage strong with the tongue and let go suddenly. To go fast, make it similar to your normal attack!
