Summary of This Method
This first volume of "100% Saxo" offers a selection of 10 easy transcriptions of great classics, designed to allow saxophonists to enjoy playing quickly while strengthening fundamentals: reading, articulation, intonation, and phrasing. The pieces are adapted for E-flat and B-flat saxophones, so both alto and tenor can enjoy the same repertoire.
The real educational asset lies in the provided CD : each track is recorded twice. The first take features saxophone and orchestra to immerse in the style, breathing, and timing, followed by a second take in play-back (orchestra only) to play along as in rehearsal or concert. This is an excellent tool to develop autonomy, work on tempo consistency, and build confidence.
The program includes tracks with very contrasting atmospheres, perfect for enriching your musical vocabulary: "Bagdad Café," "Petite fleur," "I Got You (I Feel Good)," "Georgia on My Mind," "Sous le ciel de Paris," "Just a Gigolo," "Bésame Mucho," "Don't Worry, Be Happy," "Cry Me a River," and "Nature Boy." An ideal method if you are looking for an accessible, motivating, and practice-oriented saxophone score, with accompaniments to play from the very first sessions.
