This book is designed to help saxophonists develop fluency in the jazz language by providing mainstream jazz vocabulary (swing/bop/post-bop) that nails the changes and lays great on the horn. Think of Hip Licks for Saxophone Volume 2 as a musical reference book, like a dictionary of great licks in all twelve keys, available when you need it. You can open the book to any page and just start playing. Hip Licks for Saxophone Volume 2 is an indispensable resource that shows you how a professional player would deal with many of the complex chord progressions found in popular standards and jazz compositions. Special Features of Hip Licks for Saxophone Volume 2 by Greg Fishman: • 120 Hip Licks – Each lick is unique and customized for each key, based on the best timbre, register and playability on the horn. • Idiomatic Construction – Alto and Tenor read the same written part, while the rhythm section is recorded in two different keys, ensuring that each lick lays perfectly on all saxophones. • Slow Tempo and Fast Tempo Play-Along CDs are included for both Alto and Tenor – 4 CDs included: 2 Alto CDs and 2 Tenor CDs, providing over four hours of play-along tracks. All licks at 208 BPM (and above) are recorded at both slow and fast tempos. • Hip Licks for Saxophone Volume 2 features great licks over the following chord progressions: • V7#11 chords [C7#11] x 12 keys • ii mi7 / V7 [C mi7 / F7 ] x 12 keys • ii mi7b5 / V7b9 [C mi7b5 / F7b9] x 12 keys • iv mi7 / bVII7 / I Maj7 ( 2 bar and 4 bar phrases) [F mi7 / Bb7 / C Maj7] x 12 keys • b vi mi7 / bII7 / I Maj7 [Ab mi7 / Db7 / C Maj7] x 12 keys • #iv mi7 / VII7 / I Maj7 [F#mi7 / B7 / CMaj7 x 12 keys • Turnaround Licks (4 beats per chord – 4 bar phrases [C Maj7 / A7b9 / Dmi7 / G7] x 12 keys • V7#9#5 / i mi [C7#9#5 / F mi ] x 12 keys • Turnaround Licks (2 beats per chord – 8 bar phrases] [C Maj7 Ami7 / Dmi7 G7 ] x 12 keys • Modular Design – The licks are self-contained, easily taken out of the book to be used in a wide variety of songs. • Interactive Call and Response Format, perfect for ear training and developing your musical memory. Each lick is played twice in a row on the Play-Along CDs, so you can hear the lick and then immediately play along. • Twelve Key Approach – Each CD track takes you through all twelve keys. • Rhythm-Section-Only Tracks let you experiment with your own variations on the licks and improvise over a wide variety of harmonic settings. These tracks are also excellent backgrounds for practicing all of your chords and scales. • Technique Builder – Use Hip Licks for Saxophone as part of your daily practice routine to dramatically increase your technical command of the saxophone. Hip Licks for Saxophone Volumes 1 & 2 were designed to work well together. The lick numbers in volume two start where volume one left off, beginning with lick number 169. This will help you easily keep track of your favorite licks, with no confusion from duplicate lick numbers.

Par O'NEILL JOHN. These methods provide complete courses for players off all ages, guiding students from their first note to 'classics', together with compositions by contemporary writers. Each book is accompanied by high quality rhythm section tracks recorded on compact disc. Right from the start, students can enjoy authentic jazz sounds, playing in the company of professionals. With step-by-step instruction and a progression of specially written pieces, the fundamental elements of good technique are introduced alongside the rhythmic subtleties of jazz. Improvisation is encouraged from an early stage and is given direction through the systematic study of scales and arpeggios and advice on ear-training and chord patterns. With supplementary suggestions for listening and reading, and an Appendix containing all the chord progressions for 'live' accompaniment of the tunes, 'The Jazz Methods' are ideally suited to both students working alone and those learning with a teacher. 'John O'Neill has a solid understanding of jazz and how it can be taught. I highly recommend his educational jazz materials.' (Jamey Aebersold) '...a rare opportunity for a new player (or a more experienced one) to develop a really musical facility. A rare addition to the jazz improvising library.' (Lee Konitz, international jazz saxophone soloist) The Saxophone is, for many, the instrument of jazz and there is an enormous and exciting repertoire waiting to be explored by newcomers to the instrument. 'The Jazz Method for Saxophone' will guide beginners of all ages from producing their first note on the saxophone to the performance of full-blown jazz pieces, including 'classics' by Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, Sonny Rollins and Horace Silver, as well as contributions from leading contemporary jazz players and composers. Backing for all the music-specially recorded for this method is provided on the accompanying CD so that, right from the start, student saxophonists can enjoy an authentic jazz sound, playing in the company of a top-class rhythm section (bass, guitar, drums) used later to support first attempts at improvisation. With step by step instruction and a progression of specially written pieces, the fundamental elements of good saxophone technique-breath control, tone-production, embouchure, tonguing and fingerings-are introduced alongside the rhythmic subtleties of jazz (for example, 'swung' and syncopated rhythms). Improvisation is encouraged from an early stage, given direction through the systematic study of scales and arpeggios and advice on ear-training and chord patterns. With additional information on practical matters such as choosing reeds and earing for the instrument, as well as supplementary suggestions for listening and reading, 'The Jazz Method for Saxophone' is ideally suited both to students working alone and those learning with a teacher. / Méthode / Recueil / Saxophone

The Art of Saxophone Playing by Larry Teal the 'Master' of America Saxophone schools is unfortunately only available in French. It has remained since its publication in 1963 until today as the main reference book in the study of Saxophone learning in the Anglo-Saxon world and is deemed a must have in the majority of Saxophone resources on the web.It contains a precise ensemble of very useful methods and information for anyone wanting to learn to play the Saxophone for every saxophonist who wants to perfect their knowledge or correct the occasional default and for every Saxophone teacher as a work tool and teaching delight.

La pédagogie et l\'enseignement du saxophone ne cessent d\'évoluer dans un monde moderne, un monde en mouvement où les styles musicaux se croisent et se rejoignent. Après une spécialisation du saxophone de genre «classique» ou «jazz» au c?ur du xxe siècle, nous voilà plongés dans un métissage des esthétiques, sans frontière.
Cette méthode tend à illustrer que le saxophone ne peut dissocier classique (musique mélodique, savante, écrite) et jazz (musique improvisée) permettant ainsi au saxophoniste en herbe de libérer sa parole musicale grâce à son imagination et sa créativité.
Nous avons pris le soin de veiller à une progression précise et rapide des apprentissages, sans artifice technique et avons mis l\'accent sur l\'apport purement musical, que ce soit par de courtes pièces inspirées de « grands airs» de la musique classique, ou par des morceaux originaux ou des standards liés à la musique de jazz. Conjointement, une base théorique ainsi que des clés d\'écoute sont proposés pour faciliter la performance instrumentale.
Les 20 leçons de la méthode couvrent une année complète d\'apprentissage et s\'adressent à tous les âges et profils : élève d\'un conservatoire, d\'une école de musique, jeune ou adulte amateur, accompagné d\'un professeur ou en totale autonomie.
Vous avez en main le support idéal qui vous pe1mettra de découvrir ce magnifique instrument qu\'est le saxophone au travers d\'une grande diversité de répertoires et de styles ; alors ... amusez-vous bien !
Nicolas PROST
Il y a encore de cela quelques années, le jazz et l\'improvisation au saxophone s\'adressaient souvent à des élèves avancés. Mon expérience d\'enseignant m\'a montré qu\'en improvisant dès le début de son apprentissage, l\'élève développe un sens de l\'écoute, du rythme et de la créativité.
Dans cette méthode vous aurez des outils pour improviser dès les premières leçons !
Avec des indications simples, vous allez découvrir et vous initier au plaisir de jouer et d\'improviser. Cette «rampe de lancement» pour l\'improvisation pourra s\'accompagner par la suite, si vous en éprouvez l\'envie et le besoin, de notions plus poussées.
Grâce aux accompagnements enregistrés par un trio de grands musiciens, ayant l\'habitude de jouer ensemble cette musique, vous pourrez vous immerger au c?ur de cette formation, en étant dans votre propre quartet de jazz. Vous pourrez ainsi jouer à votre guise avec ou sans votre professeur.
Prenez autant de plaisir que nous en avons eu pour concevoir cette méthode, et maintenant : Go !

Par LONDEIX JEAN-MARIE. '...Après le premier cahier à l'usage des débutants, le second vise à rendre séduisante l'étude progressive du saxophone alto, soucieux d'insuffler aux élèves des accoutumances de travail efficientes et attentif à la divergence de leurs aptitudes respectives. Les problèmes du phrasé et de l'accentuation y sont abordés au même titre que ceux d'articulation et de respiration. Réfutant la sécheresse et l'aridité, il consiste en une série de textes brefs, judicieusement gradués en leur diversité, nantis d'annotations adéquates - les uns sont empruntés à bon escient au folklore, les autres adaptés avec discernement des thèmes de Maîtres du passé ou conçus spécifiquement par des compositeurs contemporains sollicités à cette fin. La préoccupation d'une base technique indispensable n'exclut guère celle de la musicalité toujours en éveil, en cet ouvrage élaboré sous le double signe du scrupule et de la clairvoyance... ' René Bernier En composant cet ouvrage, l'auteur a cherché avant tout à faire du jeune élève non seulement un saxophoniste mais encore un musicien. Sa seconde préoccupation a été de l'amener le plus agréablement possible, et si jeune soit-il, à 'posséder' son instrument - par exemple, à pouvoir jouer un texte nouveau en première lecture, sinon en seconde. Pour cela, les 'formules de mécanisme' susceptibles de l'aider à s'affranchir rapidement des premières difficultés propres au saxophone (sans omettre les difficultés de lecture) n'ont pas été ménagées. De même que pour le premier cahier et tenant toujours compte des possibilités actuelles des jeunes écoliers, chaque leçon correspond, en principe, à une semaine de travail et le cahier au degré 'Préparatoire'. A titre d'exemple, il est proposé pour chaque séance de musique: 5 à 10 minutes de Sons Filés et Sons Droits, 10 à 15 minutes de Gammes, 10 à 15 minutes de Formules de Mécanisme et 5 à 10 minutes de morceau - version anglaise: Playing the Saxophone - Editions Henry Lemoine - version allemande: Saxophone Spielend Leicht - Schulz (Fribourg) - version italienne: Il Sassofono nella nuovo didattica - Ed.

Par PROST NICOLAS. Sept nouvelles pièces* pour saxophone solo composent ce nouvel opus de la série Saxiana. Toujours avec l’objectif d’élargir la littérature pour le saxophone, ces miniatures commandées à sept créateurs, sont parfaitement ciblées pour des adolescents « Teen », en quête de matière musicale substantielle et de niveau intermédiaire, afin de développer leur sens esthétique, leur technique et créativité. Fidèles à l’instrument d’Adolphe Sax, les sept artistes ont composé avec leur poésie intrinsèque : spectralisme avec le français Thierry Alla, folklore virtuose avec le catalan David Salleras, atonalité poétique avec le canadien Robert Lemay, intimisme contemplatif avec l’italien Gualtiero Dazzi, néoclassicisme avec le belge Alain Crepin, lyrisme néotonal du japonais Ryo Noda et post-dodécaphonisme avec le français Vincent David. Un regard sur le saxophone de demain émane de ce recueil de miniatures, où la profondeur expressive, au cœur du processus compositionnel, permet déjà à l’élève de se projeter sur la scène professionnelle. Nicolas PROST * Toutes ces compositions ont été dédiées aux lauréats de Junior Online International Competition for saxophone de 2021 et à Jean-Marie Londeix, pour célébrer son 90e anniversaire en 2022. / Niveau : Moyennement difficile (cycle 2) / Date parution : 2023-07-31/ Recueil / Saxophone

As the Saxophone is commonly associated with the jazz style classical music for the instrument had always been lacking so when Paul Bonneau composed his Caprice en forme de Valse for solo Saxophone in 1950 it was well-received by performers and listeners of the genre. Bonneau's composing was highly versatile ranging from over fifty film scores operettas songs and other pieces for Saxophone including a concerto. Caprice en forme de Valse however was particularly acclaimed for having no accompaniment and for its flexibility to be performed on all members of the Saxophone family. It containstypically French characteristics including chromaticism and difficult technical passages. All these elements combine to make for an enjoyable and challenging piece for saxophonists.

Détails du produit d'occasion : Petite trace de café dans un des coins. Le produit n'est pas abimé, les partitions sont lisibles.1 seul produit disponibleDescriptif valable uniquement pour le modèle vendu neuf.In the last few years several publications have been devoted to advanced playing techniques for wind instruments in contemporary music. Despite this, players have continued to request a more comprehensive resource with a better systematic approach, using practical examples from the repertoire.Following the enormous success of books on oboe and flute techniques, which have quickly become standard reference works, two renowned authors have written a further volume in the series, now for saxophone. The book is intended for both performers and composers and therefore it was natural that two experts came together to work on it ? the saxophonist Marcus Weiss and the composer Giorgio Netti . The most important playing, fingering and technical possibilities in sound for soprano, alto, tenor and baritone saxophone are systematically explained. These techniques are illustrated with the help of appropriate examples and practice instructions, and at the same time any special notational features are explained. Links to sound clips on the internet specially compiled for this book enable players to compare their own results with Marcus Weiss?s recording.The book is an essential, practical performing tool for interpreters, teachers and composers.- Comprehensive, systematic description of all important playing techniques for contemporary music on the saxophone- Clear explanation of special tonal effects and practice tips to try out- With internet links to all important sound excerpts- Tried and tested on all common makes of soprano, alto, tenor and baritone saxophones- Text in two languages (Ger/Eng) / Saxophone / Barenreiter
