Unparalleled in scope,
this groundbreaking
series for E_Alto and
B_Tenor offers a single
collection of Repertoire
and supporting materials
written or arranged
specifically for
saxophone. With
Repertoire spanning from
the Baroque to
contemporary eras,
Recordings, Etudes,
Technique, and Orchestral
Excerpts, this
comprehensive series
serves as a balanced and
organized pedagogical
resource from the
beginner to advanced
levels of study. Nine
progressive volumes of
Repertoire expose
students to original
works and arrangements of
diverse styles from W.A.
Mozart to Violet Archer,
with selected works by
notable jazz artist Paul
Desmon (Take Five), and
living composer Phil
Woods. Each level
provides opportunities to
explore Baroque,
Classical, Romantic, and
contemporary works, with
original, unaccompanied
selections from Levels 5
through 8 that use
extended techniques such
as multiphonics, key
clicks, and bisbigliando.
Earlier works pre-dating
the origin of the
saxophone have been
carefully arranged with
consideration of the
unique quality of the
instrument. Exposure to
these works help to
develop musicianship and
an understanding of
tonality, creating
well-rounded and
versatile performers.
Selections written for
both E_Alto and B_Tenor
include piano
accompaniments that
function with both
instruments.
