I have been asked by my director to play a bari sax for marching next year. Now you see, the fingerings in my book don`t go as low as a low G, but my music does! I have no clue about how to play that. Can anyone tell me?

The simple answer is, no. A baritone saxophone cannot go that low. The lowest note that a bari has ever been made to play is an A (concert C). Just play the note an octave up, and if your director questions you, just tell him what I just wrote.
