This collection of 21 popular tunes has been carefully arranged and graded to provide attractive teaching repertoire for young alto saxophonists. The familiarity of the material will stimulate pupils' enthusiasm and encourage their practice. The technical demands of the solo part increase progressively up to the standard of Associated Board Grade I. The piano accompaniments are simple yet effective and should be within the range of most pianists. Jerry Lanning is a graduate of the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. He is a widely experienced arranger in both popular and classical fields, with many published arrangements to his credit. He also teaches (mainly the piano) at Wycombe Abbey School and Bradfield College. / Saxophone Alto
