I was looking for something totally unrelated, and just happened to stumble across this interesting source for multiphonic fingerings for alto saxophone, by Jason DuMars.
Just in case the PDF file eventually vanishes, I’m including the original here as well.
You will need the Adobe Reader to open the PDF. If you don’t already have it installed in your machine, you can download it for free from Adobe here.
…this is just my blog. My “real” website is www.bassic-sax.info. If you’re looking for sax info, you should check it out too.There’s lots there!
hello.Your web is very interesting.I am a sax player from Canary Islands,Spain.I am looking for information about multiphonics in saxophone.

Hello Juan. Welcome to my site.
The most complete book I’ve seen to date on the subject of multiphonics was written by John Gross. Multiphonics for the Saxophone is a great book that provides easy-to-follow diagrams of 178 different note combinations. I wrote an article about the book in September 2008.
Multiphonics for the Saxophone is available through Sheet Music Plus. I checked at Amazon.com, but they didn’t have any. I bought mine in a music store locally years ago, but I don’t know if they’re still available. It might be worth checking however.
I hope this has helped Juan.
Regards,
Helen
