This  is  an  outstanding  instruction  book,  specifically  for  alto  saxophone,  which  teaches  a  beginning  instrumentalist  all  of  the  basic  skills  necessary  to  play  the  instrument.  The  book  features  180  short  songs  and  etudes,  which  are  used  to  learn  new  notes,  rhythms  and  styles,  as  well  as  to  reinforce  the  previously-learned  material.  There  are  also  several  band  arrangement  songs,  in  addition  to  a  concert  piece  (with  piano  accompaniment  included)  and  two  like-instrument  duets.  As  an  added  bonus,  this book  also features  sixteen  etudes  from  the  famous  Rubank  method  books,  seventy-two  one-measure  rhythm  patterns,  and  a  one  page  guide  to  creating  music.
 
Add  all  of  this  music  to  short  lessons  on  music  history  and  music  theory,  include  a  fingering chart,  throw  in  a  compact  disc  that  provides  accompaniments  for  lessons  1  -  58,  and  you  have  a  book  that  is  clearly  the  best  in  its  class.  We  are  recommending  this  book  (and  the  optional  3  CD  set  which  accompanies  lessons  59 to  the  end  of the  book)  for  all  beginning  instrumentalists,  regardless  of  age.
