Saxophone study material that is aimed at musical expression and sound, instead of virtuosity is always in short supply. Most existing study books offer too little opportunity to apply the learned technique for its actual purpose - making music. These New Concert Studies meet the demand for teaching the art of making music. The book contains fifteen studies that put emphasis on interpretation and performance. The pieces have been written by a number of leading composers and their various approaches make practising these studies a good way to widen your musical horizons. The books comes with a demo CD featuring Nobuya Sugawa showing exactly how it should be done.

As the saxophone is commonly associated with the jazz style, classical music for the instrument had always been lacking and so when Paul Bonneau published his Concerto for Alto Saxophone in 1944, it was well-received by performers of the genre. Bonneau's composition was highly versatile, ranging from over fifty film scores, operettas, songs and other pieces for Saxophone, including this concerto. Comprising three movements, a typical performance lasts about fifteen minutes. Bonneau's Concerto for Alto Saxophone contains typically French characteristics, including chromaticism and difficult technical passages. All these elements combined make for an enjoyable and challenging piece for saxophonists.
