A collection of etudes Mar 12, 2007
By Secrets & Lies
I purchased this book for my wife who two months ago started playing saxophone after a 20 year interlude. Since the "Search Inside/Look Inside" feature was not available for this book, I did not realize that this was only a collection of sheet music, or to put it in other words, 24 pages of etudes with no explanatory or additional text of any kind. The first page contains 2 separate exercises and the remaining pages contain 1 exercise each.
The material in this book may not be so bad if you already know how to read notes (my wife is relearning that part). If you are not that far yet, I would recommend "A New Tune a Day for Alto Saxophone" or "Play Alto Sax Today! Beginner's Pack".

college jazz minor Jun 30, 2006
By Randolph Scott-mclaughlin
"jazz sax player"
great book, glad my teacher recommended it. Recomend it for experienced high school player or college student. Might be a little hard for a middle schooler

This is a great book! Nov 29, 2008
By Tony L. Tate
I have used this book in the past and just ordered it again. I have read some of the other reviews on this book and I just want to say that it takes a book like this to make you improve on the sax overall. If you notice, each exercise is based on a certain rhythmic theme. These exercises should be learned and maintained. The more you play through the book after you have thoroughly learned the exercises, you will noticed that your sight reading will have improved drastically. And by the way, Scales and rhythm are the basis of all music. If you don't learn the basics you have nothing.

Great Saxophone Workout Mar 18, 2008
By J. Hoover
"chicagojosh"
When it comes to playing any musical instrument, gaining mastery over the fundamentals of how to play said instrument forms the base of a musicians training. Yes, a large part is also sheer creativity, but being skilled in creating what you want, and how you want it, is first and foremost to being able to create music.
That being said, the etudes enclosed in this book will work the full range of skills necessary to effectively play the saxophone. Range, articulation, accidentals, endurance, breathing, and phrasing are all worked in each exercise.
If each etude is worked through methodically, starting out slowly and working towards full tempo, all of your playing skills should see improvement.
I pair this with Jackie McClean's "Daily Warm-Up Exercises for Saxophone" to start each practice session, allowing me to drill the full range of scales, chords, and overall technique.
