Par MULE. Thirty great exercises or studies after Soussmann- Book 1 is the first volume of series of two, written by Marcel Mule. Inspired by Soussmann’s exercise book and adapted to Saxophone, these studies for intermediate players are divided with 15 studies in the first book and 15 in the second. Written in G key with up to 7 sharps, these studies will develop the technical skills and the sonority of the saxophonist. With breathing indications, it will help the players to advance in endurance too. Marcel Mule (1901-2001) is one of the greatest French saxophonist, renowned worldwide for his work on the classical Saxophone repertoire. He was teaching his students how to obtain a goodquality of sound and believed it was dependent on the embouchure, the emission, the mastery of vibrato and thus of breathing. He wrote different methods that focus on technique, articulation and tone productions such as 'Eighteen Exercises or studies'or 'Daily Exercises after Terschack' among others./ Etude / Saxophone

Marin Marais (1656-1728), prestigieux compositeur français de la période baroque jouait également la viole et la viole de gambe pour Louis XIV. Il écrivit près de 600 pièces pour son instrument, réparties en 5 livres, chacun comprenant, entre autres, une quarantaine de suites. Nicolas Prost propose une sélection de 24 pièces adaptées pour saxophone, qui pourront aisément être programmées pour le concert ou dans le cadre pédagogique, comme études mélodiques et virtuoses, à partir du 2e cycle.

This book brings together studies that focus on saxophone-specific technical difficulties, such as register changes, dexterity in the low register, and coordination of the ring and little fingers. Similar to Buddhist meditation mantras, the exercises are repeated gradually increasing the difficulty level. An ideal reference for advanced saxophonists that can be used in lessons or as concert preparation. / Saxophone
