  • This is actually a very good book.
Format: Paperback
I'm learning saxophone with this book (along with other information given to me by my private teacher). This book is covering all of the holes in my lessons that my teacher and I don't have time to review. Nobody is going to learn saxophone in 14 days, so you can forget about that, but you will learn quite a lot with this book and it will get you ready to move on from complete beginner to the next lever. Well done and very logical lessons. If you cannot find a local teacher you can still learn some great basics with this book if you attack the lessons seriously. ... show more

  • Always good to know having this book.
Format: Paperback
It’s a great book to learn playing the instrument and always handy to go back where you left of.

  • Good Starter Book for Tenor Sax
Format: Paperback
This has a nice fingering chart and is a good starter book to learn how to play the tenor saxophone, but please don't get discouraged if you can't play the sax in 14 days. I think that timeline is very unrealistic. It should take you as long as it takes you to learn how to play the sax. I recommend it as a starter book. ... show more

  • If you know nothing at all
Format: Paperback
I recently decided to put a stake in the ground and start learning to play saxophone. By the time I decided to pick up this book, I had already picked up a lot of the information contained from watching online tutorials. So on one hand, it’s a good physical reference tool but may not be as useful for the avid and determined YouTube student. ... show more

  • Awesome
Format: Paperback
I used to play 20 years ago. Recently got a new horn so I needed something to help me remember a bit. Haven't read music in forever, it got me going. It has some of the typical pentatonic and blues scales. Perfect to start practicing with.
