Editorial Reviews
Review
This book would be ideal for adult students returning to saxophone or beginning from scratch, as it covers absolutely everything from purchasing an instrument to embouchure to extended techniques. I would also recommend it for any instrumental teachers picking up saxophone as a second, third or fourth instrument or woodwind doublers, as it could be a great trouble-shooting guide for saxophone specific techniques.
